The
Fieldpiece DL3 Data Logger measures and records any parameter from any Fieldpiece accessory head. It holds up to 20,000 data points and can be set to record in a range from once every second to once every 999 hours. Record and export data in .xls format to your PC for use in work orders, troubleshooting and service contracts. A real-time clock time stamps every data point for pinpoint accuracy. Use multiple data loggers to monitor several parameters to make troubleshooting and commissioning easier. Combined with Fieldpiece accessory head instruments, we are comfortable saying the DL3 is the most versatile data logger for HVACR field service.
The DL3 data logger records mV signals from any Fieldpiece accessory head, and is also programmable. Users can program automatic recordings using SPAN (the time over which measurements are made) and PER (time period between measurements). The new TRIGGER feature allows the DL3 to start and stop recording points when data is outside of a specified range, thereby only recording data which is meaningful to you. Users can also manually add single measurements by pressing record.
A common customer complaint is "The system runs all the time". With multiple Fieldpiece DL3s, the user can determine if the system is indeed running all the time as well as troubleshoot the cause of the problem. Put one Fieldpiece DL3 HVAC/R Data Logger with an ACH4 on the condenser to log amperage to track the time when the system is running and how hard. At the same time, log indoor temperature by using the Fieldpiece DL3 with an ARH4 to see if the target temperature is being reached and if the system is performing as it should.
By downloading the data from two DL3s into a spreadsheet the user can analyze it, line up the times, format the data and perform mathematical operations, and format the graph into a excel spreadsheet.
