Mini-Systems with Data Logger DL 18 or DL 18 - BLE

Our Mini-Systems are based on the data loggers DL 18 (interface: USB to PC withWindows or MacOS) or DL 18-BLE (interface: Bluetooth Low Energy to Windows PC, orTablet / Smartphone with Android or iOS).

Both loggers feature 4 precise and high-resolution measuring channels (temperature-compensated, 16 bits) for connecting various analogue sensors, such as dendrometers, soil moisture sensors, temperature probes (T-soil,T-surface,T-Tissue), leaf temperature sensors (LAT-B3),and T/RH air sensor.
A possible sensor combinations would be for example: 1x dendrometer + 1x T/RH air sensor (this sensor type occupies 2 channels) + 1x soil moisture sensor (max. number of soil moisture sensors per DL 18 is 1 piece, due to the higher power consumption of this sensor type).

Our mini measuring system can operate independently due to their robustness (weather resistant protective box and metal roof are included); battery-operative, extremely low power consumption (2replaceableAAA batteries, lifetime> 1 year);as well as their large internal memory (1,900,000 data points). Mini-Systems are thus ideal for long-term measurements in outdoor conditions with a spatially decentralized distribution of the measuring points

Advantages

  • Small, robust, weatherproof
  • User friendly: easy sensor connection with stereo plug, easy configuration and data readout via PC or smartphone/tablet, control buttons for the most important functions directly on the logger device, LCD display can be turned off (displayable information includes current measurement values, recording status, alarms, battery status, memory usage)
  • Extensive measurement functions: average, event-controlled burst-measurements, measurement-value-controlled alarms, etc.
  • Precise and high-resolution measurements
  • Low power consumption, powered by 2 AAA batteries; very long battery life
  • Large measurement data memory


Specific to the DL 18-BLE model

  • Wireless configuration and data transmission via Bluetooth Low Energy to Windows-PC, Tablet or Smartphone with Andriod or iOS

Limits

  • Only 4 channels
  • On the logger itself, linear conversions of the raw readings can be programmed and carried out; however, complex conversions must be performed post-hoc, after data download of the raw measured values (e.g., in a spreadsheet program)

    Like so many things, everything started with an idea ...

    In the case of the plant scientist and founder of ECOMATIK, Dr. Liu, it was the idea that modern measurement technology should enable crucial plant physiological parameters to be measured directly, precisely and with high temporal resolution on the plant itself. It was obvious to him that there is an information potential of immense value in the detailed understanding of immediate reactions of plants to their environment...
