iLOGPlus-LAN: Freezer data logging & remote monitoring

 

Introduction

ILOGPlus is a range of data loggers with built in advanced technology features. It is manufactured in 2 versions with built in ethernet interface and with a built in GSM modem, that are capable to fit a wide range of applications ranging from simple to the most complex.

 

 

Requirements

At an industrial frozen food manufacturer’s site with 2 deep freezers (-25oC) and 1 conservation freezer (0oC) it is desired to,

 

- Measure and log temperature, humidity and receive alarms when limits are excided,

- Receive alarms whenever there is a power failure,

- Receive alarms whenever the freezer doors are left open for a long term,

 

Proposal

An ilogplus  LAN model with

 

- an optional GSM modem to send alarms via SMS,

- 3 temperature probes (typically AD592 which are current sensors and van be extended up to 100+ meters),

- 3 humidity probes (typically a 5-95% 4-20mA),

- a power loss detection relay to monitor power failures

 

is all that is needed to setup a complete monitoring and alarming system

 

 

The ILOGPlus data logger can log all channels and send data automatically to a preconfigured email or local ftp account every X hours.

Online monitoring is offered using an internal web server using any Internet browser.

 

Whenever there is an alarm eg. A temperature limit breach for more than 30 minutes, issue an SMS alarm to a list of recipients.

 

If the temperature rises above 2oC an SMS alarm will be issued to a list of recipients which can decide and decide on, visiting the installation or issuing remote commands.

 

Note: A single ilog which has by default 4 analogue inputs, 4 digital inputs, and 2 relay digital outputs can manage all the above. Extend the ilogplus unit with AI extensions unit to add more freezers. Up 16 channels per ilogplus device.
