Temperature Data Loggers Useful for Validation Studies in Puerto Rico.

Here are the most common reasons:

1. Data loggers are normally more economical than chart recorders.

They offer more flexibility and are available with a greater variety of input types. Most data loggers collect data that may be directly transferred to a computer. Although this option is available with some recorders, it normally adds significant expense to the recorder price. Temperature Data Loggers Useful

2. Data acquisition systems offer a great deal of flexibility and are certainly attractive when high sample rates are required.

However, since they require connection or installation into a computer, the computer must also be present and active when collecting the data.

3. Data loggers can collect data independently of a computer.

Data is normally collected in non-volatile memory for later download to a computer. The computer does not need to be present during the data collection process. This makes them ideally suited for applications requiring portability.

Recommendations to Avoid Mistakes Selecting Temperature Data Loggers.

We suggest evaluating all your requirements and needs to use temperature data loggers mentioned above, but, also consider the frequency of use monthly, and how fast you need them on-site for your validation study.

So, you can determine if is better to buy or rent them based on the expertise and time availability of your employees to configure and prepare the trending graphs and summary statistical reports on time.

Before buy, consider the cost of the data loggers, but, also the cost of the calibration and its lead time.

Evaluate and compare the total costs and lead times, against the costs to rent data loggers already calibrated.

If you are NOT using temperature data loggers frequently, consider a fast CIQA rental of the calibrated data loggers required for the thermal study. Thermal Mapping Outcomes
