Multilog 2
Multilog 2 is a highly advanced and versatile multi-channel data logger designed to monitor any combination of digital and analog signals.
Ideal for a wide variety of specialized applications, including monitoring PRV flow and/or pressure in a district or zone to assess demand, non-revenue water loss, and pressure conformance – Multilog 2 utilizes the latest 4G LTE-M cellular modems for fast, efficient, and reliable communication.
Multilog 2 is an effective data-logging solution that is now available with support for WITS 1.3. It delivers direct integration with WITS SCADA systems.
Application
After installation, all firmware upgrades and programming changes are made remotely. This ensures that changes are made efficiently and is also cost-effective, as it removes the need for site visits.
Multilog 2 transmits data through an integral 4G LTE-M (Cat-M1) cellular modem.
An innovative feature of Multilog 2 is a secondary channel, enabling additional fast logging down to 25Hz.
Secondary logging can be triggered on a time schedule and/or in response to an alarm condition being triggered. This is invaluable when more detailed investigation, such as transient pressure spikes and ‘true’ minimum night flow, is required.
