XR5 Data Loggers

[New!]Eleven channel XR5 Data Logger.

XR5 data logger

The XR5-SE Data Logger features 8 multi-range analog inputs, 3 pulse/frequency inputs, and millivolt / thermocouple range options.

Includes: Adjustable sensor excitation, status indicators and detachable 20 position screw terminal block.  Alarm generation for each analog input; average and peak sampling; 12 bit resolution; memory capacity of up to 260,000 readings (-M models), real time data output.  Logging modes include delayed start, wrap-around, cycle, log on alarm, and log on external trigger.  Firmware can be user-updated.  Battery life is 2 to 3 years for typical applications.  Pace stocks over 50 compatible sensors, all requiring no external power.  Full specifications.

Sensor and Signal Versatility

Each XR5 analog input (8 total) can be set to any of the following (mix and match):

0-5 vdc (10 megohm input impedance)
0-2.5 vdc (10 megohm input impedance)
Switch closure
Potentiometer
Resistance (2-wire)
Thermistor (10k or 30k)
4-20ma (requires shunt resistor or Pace Scaling Cable)
Temperature Probe
Pressure Transducer
AC Current Sensor
DC Current Sensor
AC Voltage Sensor
Relative Humidity Probe
Solar Radiation Sensor
Soil Moisture Sensor
Light Sensor

All XR5-SE models include 5v and 2.5v sensor excitation terminals.  Sensor excitation time is selectable from 30ms to 10 seconds.

Each analog input can be set to any of the following additional ranges using a Pace Scaling Cable

+/-2.5v, +/-5v, -2.5 to 7.5v, -7.5v to 12.5v
-12.5v to 17.5v, -27.5v to 32.5v, -57.6v to 62.6v
0-10v, 0-15v, 0-20v, 0-30v, 0-60v

Please see page 83 of the XR5-SE User's Guide for details on Pace Scaling Cables.

Data Logging Applications

Millivolt / Thermocouple Option: Adding a millivolt option provides two additional millivolt ranges for each analog input (table below).  The -20mv or -50mv option is recommended for Thermocouple applications.  The -20mv option provides higher thermocouple accuracy.  The -50mv option provides higher temperature ranges for some thermocouples.  See page 92-96 of the XR5-SE User's Guide for details.  Pace stocks the PT450 Thermocouple Probe for thermocouple applications.
