Data loggers are rugged, stand alone instruments that sample and process data, send alarms, and store information to local memory for later download and analysis, or autonomously transfer data back to a central station.

Data logging is utilized in a variety of applications, ranging from energy audits and field product testing to measurement and verification, environmental chamber data acquisition, environmental testing (monitoring temperature, humidity, wind speed, vibration and other parameters), as well as energy reporting, metering and process optimization.

In many cases, data loggers are located in remote locations where access to AC power is either impossible or not cost efficient. In such instances, a self-contained, battery-powered solution is required, often involving Tadiran Lithium thionyl chloride batteries.

Tadiran Lithium thionyl chloride batteries are ideal for use in data logging applications, including those that require continuous performance in extremely cold temperatures, as these cells use a non-aqueous electrolyte, and the absence of water enables them to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -55°C to +125°C. Specially modified cells are capable of performing at -85°C.

If the data logging device requires high current pulses, then the application could be suitable for PulsesPlus cells, which are specifically designed for long-term high current pulse applications.
