Overview
The Global Water PL200-H Hydrant Water Pressure Logger is an easy-to-use water pressure data logger that allows users to quickly identify and locate distribution pressure problems as well as a wealth of system modeling data. The Hydrant Water Pressure Logger's ez-connect adapter system allows users to connect directly to a standard 2 ½ inch NST(NH) fire hydrant port, or easily adapt to other hose threads and special "city" threads. Designed to resemble a regular hydrant cap, the PL200-H is less likely to be stolen or vandalized by casual passersby.
Mechanics
The Hydrant Water Pressure Logger's massive memory buffer will store over 81,000 pressure readings with user-defined intervals from 1 per second to more than 1 per year. Plus, the logger's fast, 10 samples per second sampling mode can capture momentary events like pressure spikes and water hammer.
*Note: Fast recording will reduce battery life. Programmable start and stop alarm times make it possible to synchronize multiple PL200-H-1 loggers to start simultaneously, delay start until a preset time, or limit the number of recordings during a given time period.
