MS3600E Field-Mounted High-Resolution ER Data Logger
Corrosion rate measurements are made using a high-resolution electrical resistance method, measuring up to 65535 probe units.Essentially, the instrument measures the resistance of the probe element which changes over time, as metal loss occurs. The rate of change is directly proportional to corrosion rate. This method finds a wide variety of applications since it can be used in conductive and nonconductive environments such as petroleum, chemical, water, soil, or even atmosphere. The MS3600E takes probe readings on a user-programmable logging interval. Readings are time and date stamped as they are taken, then stored to memory. Between readings, the instrument remains in a sleep mode to conserve main battery power. The instruments memory is capable of storing more than 100,000 readings, and is stored in non-volatile Flash memory. Stored data can be uploaded to any PC as a comma-delimited ASCII text file. Because the data is in ASCII text format, it can be imported into any standard data analysis program such as Microsoft Excel. Data can also be reviewed on the instruments LCD display for quick reference. Stored data can be downloaded directly to a certified USB storage device or via Bluetooth (option on Model MS3620E). This eliminates the need to remove the MS3600E from its site, or to bring a laptop PC to the site. This can be particularly useful when collecting data from multiple MS3600E DataLoggers. And since the MS3600E is intrinsically safe, data can be downloaded from the MS3600E even in hazardous locations. The MS3600E also offers an optional 4-20mA current loop output. This feature allows data from the instrument to be fed directly to any industrial process computer that accepts analog inputs. The instrument is housed in a stainless steel NEMA 4X / IP 66 enclosure, and all external connections are weather-proof. This makes the MS3600E suitable for use in almost any indoor or outdoor environment. Technical Specifications
