The Water District for a coastal resort community provides freshwater and sewer service to more than 40,000 residents and two million visitors a year. The district delivers 6 million gallons of water each day to homes and businesses and removes 4 million gallons of wastewater for treatment.

The District’s facilities cover a substantial area. The sewer system contains 125 miles of pipelines, 3,800 manholes, 14 lift stations, and 3 miles of pressurized mains. The district’s

Have you started thinking about using the cellular network as a connection path for your IoT device or datalogger? If you are based in North America and you are not deploying hundreds of devices, you will want to read on.

The Problem
The North American carriers continue to lag behind the Europeans and the rest of the world in making it easy to get a device or a handful of 3G 

As one of the largest US distributors of data logging and monitoring equipment, we receive hundreds of calls every year from users looking to put new systems in place. One of the first questions we ask is if “are looking for a monitoring system or data logging system?” And, it’s surprising how often they are confused as to what is really needed. Hopefully, by looking at the different functions that are available the differences between them will become clearer.

Feedback Control Systems Are Ideal in a Wide Range of Industries

Closed-loop systems—electronic control systems which incorporate feedback–are a mainstay of modern manufacturing and R&D. As with many industrial control systems such as PLCs, the goal is to ensure a repeatable process. Whether you’re working on a research application, supervising/servicing an industrial process or supervising a whole plant’s operatio

Guard Critical Products and Processes

In the last few years, it’s become increasingly common for hospitals, clinics, healthcare, and life science organizations and other business to use an electronic temperature monitoring system to safeguard their products and satisfy regulatory demands. You may know that you need a monitoring system possibly with alarming capabilities but aren’t sure how to select

Part I of “How Fast of a Sample Rate Does Your Data Logger Need?” discussed why you are datalogging and the factors you should consider when determining the appropriate sample rate.

How Does Sample Rate Impact the Data Logger?

The maximum required sample rate impacts several key areas in the design and operation of data logger. Obviously, the logger has to have enough on-board memory to store all of the data collected between upload intervals. You

We often receive requests for data logging systems that can sample the inputs 100’s or 1000’s of times a second. And while we offer several different systems that can provide kHz sample rates, we often try to get a better understanding of the application to see if this is really necessary. As you increase the sample rate there are a number of costs that go up quickly. It’s not just the cost of the measurement hardware itself, other costs include:

• Data

For Machine monitoring, Productivity Assessment & Troubleshooting

At CAS DataLoggers, many of our callers want to see how often one or more of their machines are operating and when. This pinpoints machine downtime and can identify poor work productivity, or identifies if another cause is at work (power outages etc.) In our latest Technical Article, we outline how to configure a Series 4 dataTaker DT8x
