Soanar Lascar EL-USB-ACT data logger

The Lascar EL-USB-ACT data logger from Soanar measures and stores over 127,000 AC and DC current readings over a 0 to 1000 A DC measurement range (0 to 723 A for AC).

In the ‘energy monitoring’ mode, this data is converted into power, energy (using a user-defined voltage value) and cost (using a user-supplied energy unit cost). The millivolt measurement mode allows for direct measurement of voltage, up to 1V DC (700m VAC.).

The logger can be easily set up and the downloaded data can be viewed by plugging the data logger into a PC’s USB port and using the supplied software. This software has provision for a clamp scaling factor (the clamp input-output ratio of amps to millivolts). Stored data can then be graphed, printed and exported to other applications. The high contrast LCD shows a variety of current, power, energy and cost information. At the touch of a button, users can cycle between the most recent, maximum and minimum measurement values.
