Extreme temperature measurement

Temperature Measurement

June 2008 Temperature Measurement

Independent recording of both high and low temperatures has been made both affordable and easy to implement with the introduction of the EL-USB-TC thermocouple USB data-logger.

The latest addition to the EL-USB range of standalone data-loggers accepts inputs from K, J, or T type thermocouples and can measure and record temperatures from -200 to +1300°C depending on the sensor used. This makes the data-logger ideal for recording the extreme highs and lows of temperature found throughout industry.

The data-logger is powered by a 1/2AA lithium battery (supplied) which should power the unit for six months or more.
