Data Loggers for Environmental Parameter Monitoring
Tecnopenta data loggers are professional instruments for data acquisition, storage, and transmission from environmental and industrial sensors. Designed to ensure reliability and accuracy even in demanding conditions, they are the ideal solution for monitoring systems in meteorological, hydrological, agrivoltaic, and industrial applications.
What is a Data Logger and What Is It Used For?
A data logger is an electronic device capable of acquiring data from one or more sensors, recording it locally and, when required, transmitting it to data platforms or SCADA systems. In technical and environmental monitoring, it allows continuous measurements over time, reducing human intervention and ensuring data traceability.
Main Parameters Monitored Include:
- Temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure
- Flow rate and water level
- Solar radiation and meteorological parameters
- Electrical and industrial variables (voltage, current, pulses, digital I/O)
Tecnopenta Data Loggers: Precision and Modularity
Tecnopenta data loggers are designed to provide high reliability, low power consumption, and flexibility in sensor management. The main product line is based on the FlexLog D1, a modular system featuring multi-channel acquisition, autonomous power supply, and remote communication.
FlexLog D1
The FlexLog D1 data logger allows acquisition of analog and digital signals from different sensors, with customizable configuration for each channel.
Main Features:
- Up to 16 configurable analog channels (0–5 V, 4–20 mA, PT100, pulses, digital contacts)
- Internal storage on non-volatile memory
- Communication via USB, RS485, and optional 4G modem
- Autonomous power supply with internal battery and solar panel
- Compatibility with Tecnopenta software for data acquisition and visualization
Thanks to its modular design, the FlexLog D1 can be used in single installations or in complex environmental monitoring networks, integrating with weather stations, hydrological systems, and industrial equipment.
Typical Applications of Tecnopenta Data Loggers
- Environmental and meteorological monitoring: collecting data from temperature, humidity, wind, rain, and solar radiation sensors.
- Hydrological and hydraulic monitoring: measuring flow, level, and velocity of watercourses with remote data transmission.
- Agrivoltaic and agricultural systems: analyzing environmental and efficiency parameters to optimize energy and crop production.
- Industrial processes and research: process data acquisition, energy monitoring, and experimental validation.
Data Management and Transmission
All Tecnopenta data loggers are compatible with dedicated software for configuration, data download, and record management. The available communication interfaces (USB, RS485, Ethernet, 4G) allow both local use and connection to remote platforms.
Tecnopenta solutions can be integrated into distributed monitoring networks, featuring automatic data updates and secure remote access.
Reliability, Support, and Customization
Each data logger is developed and tested in-house by Tecnopenta, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of sensors and providing comprehensive technical support. Upon request, custom configurations and channel calibration with integrated autonomous power supplies are available.
Conclusion
Tecnopenta data loggers offer a reliable and scalable solution for those requiring data acquisition systems that can be integrated into environmental and industrial monitoring projects.
