HOBO U30 USB Data Logger - U30-NRC
The HOBO U30-NRC Weather Station is our most rugged data logging system that can be easily reconfigured and adapted to a wide variety of applications. Up to 15 channels of environmental data can be measured and recorded, and later analyzed with HOBOware® Pro software.
Key advantages:
- All electronics are housed within a rugged double-weatherproof, tamper-proof enclosure
- Set up is quick and easy with plug-and-play sensors
- Fast data offload via USB
- Optional analog inputs with sensor excitation
- Includes relay that can be activated on user-defined alarm conditions
