Graphtec GL240
10 multifunction analog inputs and 4 digital inputs (pulse counting). Data storage: internal Flash memory or SD Card slot.
ALL CHANNEL ISOLATED/UNIVERSAL INPUT
Channel to Channel isolation is the highlight of the Graphtec data loggers. Along with its compact footprint, GL240 contains an isolated input system which ensures that signals are not corrupted by inputs from other channels.
All channel Isolated/Universal input, Standalone Multi-Channel
Its compact size contains an isolated input system which ensures that signals are not corrupted by inputs to other channels, thus eliminating wiring concerns. The GL240s multi-type inputs are suitable for voltage, temperature, humidity, pulse, and logic signals, enabling combined measurements of different phenomena like temperature/humidity and voltage.
