DataLogger goes wireless
MCELROY has brought wireless
capability to the DataLogger® 5 to give
pipe fusion operators the ability to
upload data to the DataLogger Vault,
where it can be reviewed and analysed
in real-time from anywhere in the world.
Fusion data can now be uploaded
instantly from the field via Wi-Fi or
cellular, and reviewed and analysed the
same day.
Fusion operators no longer have to
physically connect the DataLogger to a
PC to extract the information, a process
that some operators may delay for days
or even weeks after the fusion joints are
made, which is usually too late to easily
address any potential concerns.
“Data logging is being required
on more and more job sites to verify
pipeline integrity,” said McElroy CEO
Chip McElroy. “We are happy to offer
tools that allow fusion operators to do
this as easily and efficiently as possible.”
The wireless feature takes advantage
of in-field connectivity to provide
benefits such as expedited workflow,
real-time oversight on the job and real-
time joint analysis. McElroy launched
the latest-generation DataLogger 5
and the DataLogger Vault software
application to provide users with the
most up-to-date quality assurance
tools. The DataLogger records and
documents the key parameters of the
pipe fusion process. In addition to full
support for Wi-Fi and cellular networks,
its features include GPS stamping,
barcode scanning and a 5MP camera.
