Intrinsically Safe Temperature Data Logger for Monitoring Hazardous Environments

Onset Introduces Intrinsically Safe Temperature Logger

The StowAway-IS Temp data logger is rated intrinsically safe for recording temperatures in hazardous locations. Its small size, wide temperature range and splash-proof design make it ideal for deployment in harsh industrial environments.

The StowAway-IS Temp carries the Intrinsically Safe Rating for use in areas where there are potentially explosive concentrations of gas (Class I) or dust (Class 2), either continuously (Division I) or intermittently (Division 2). It specifically covers gases in groups A-G, and dusts in groups A-D, F & G. The StowAway-IS Temp has been tested to NEMA 6P (IP67), but is not intended for extended deployment in water or epoxy-permeating vapors.

StowAway-IS Temp offers a measurement range from -40° to +167°F (-40° to +75°C), with an accuracy of ±0.72°F (0.46°C) at 68°F (20°C). It offers user-selectable sampling intervals from 0.5 seconds to 9 hours. Launch and readout functions use an Optic Base Station for communication between the PC and the logger. A blinking LED light shows if the temperature goes out of user-determined limits. The StowAway-IS Temp is just 1.5" diameter by 0.8" thick (38 x 20 mm) with a mounting bail. NIST-traceable temperature accuracy certification is available. Over 32,000 time-stamped readings can be stored to the loggers nonvolatile memory. The logger uses a 5 year, non-replaceable battery. Collected data is read out to a PC with BoxCar® Pro software, where it can be graphed, analyzed or exported.

Convenient Data Offload with Optic Shuttle
The optional pocket-sized Optic Shuttle provides a convenient way to readout and relaunch the StowAway-IS Temp in the field. The Optic Shuttle with the StowAway-IS Coupler also allows for triggered start on location.
