Why Should I use a Data Logger?

Why risk human error when we can program devices to do it for us? Before the introduction of data logging, a simple thermometer or chart recorder would display temperature and humidity but such devices did not record longer-term data or communicate instant alarm notifications without a visual check. Add inaccurate readings, missed or misread readings or the failure to spot alarms and the human element of data collection really begins to show some serious and potentially expensive flaws. By automating this process you reduce the risk of inaccuracies and save money and time in the process.

Wireless data logging allows for completely remote monitoring of any location, from any location. WiFi-connected devices take readings and automatically send the readings to a Cloud-based system. In the Cloud, users can carry out their own data analysis, graphing, sharing and downloading the data to distribute throughout teams. Coupled with a high level of data security, a Cloud-based system not only offers ease but also cost-effectiveness, removing the need to take manual recordings.

Automated data collection is not the only benefit you get from using a data logger. Flexible alarm notifications, either on the logger itself or via email, SMS or App notification, alert you of a problem before the change in condition might damage your goods or products. Automated peace of mind.
