HOBO U30 Ethernet Data Logger
15-Channel Web-based Monitoring System
Discontinued
Important Information
Requires a HOBOlink service plan and HOBOware software (USB interface cable included w/CD purchase).
Compatible with
Overview
A web-based, 15-channel data logging system for a broad range of energy and weather monitoring applications. The system transmits data to the web through an Ethernet network connection for easy access from internet-enabled devices. In addition, alarms can be configured to generate text messages and emails when data goes out of range.
Features
- Web-based data access via Ethernet communications
- Plug-and-play smart sensors enable rapid deployment
- Double weatherproof, tamperproof enclosure for harsh environments
- Alarm capabilities via text, e-mail
- Optional analog inputs with sensor excitation
- HOBOlink for viewing data and system configuration via the web
- Scheduled data delivery from HOBOlink to email or FTP
- Includes relay that can be activated on user-defined alarm conditions
Specifications
Normal operating range: -20°C to 40°C (-4°F to 104°F)
Extended operating range: -40 to 60°C (-40 to 140°F) - see "Rechargeable Battery service Life" for impact of operations in Extended Operating Range.
