Product Description
Industrial Grade Water Level Recorder
The GDL001BM-GSM is an advanced, microprocessor-based datalogger designed to measure water levels using a digital piezometer or pore water pressure sensor. Engineered for rugged field use, this system ensures high accuracy and ease of operation in monitoring groundwater or borehole water levels.
Key Features:
- Single Channel Input: Supports one piezometer sensor.
- Display: 20x4 alphanumeric intelligent LCD for clear data visualization.
- Data Logging: Stores over 100,000 records directly to a micro SD card in Excel format.
Modes:
- Depth Mode: Measures depth from ground/borehole.
- Level Mode: Measures water height above the sensor.
- GSM Enabled: Transmits data via SMS; readings and battery status can be remotely accessed.
- Battery Powered: Operates on 6V DC with built-in mains charger; up to 12 hours on full charge.
- RS-232C Interface: For communication and setup.
Programming Capabilities:
- User-friendly keyboard interface for setting:
- Data interval (1 to 1440 minutes)
- Level offset
- Calibration factor
- Time and date
- Phone number for SMS alerts
- Password-protected data entry and memory clearing
Memory and Data Handling:
- 4GB Micro SD card (expandable)
- Data is directly saved in Excel-compatible format
- Easy data transfer via PC or phone
- Built-in calibration and null data functions
- Pros:Records over 200,000 readings, offering four unique recording options, including programmable intervals from seconds to years.
- Cons:Not explicitly mentioned in the provided snippets, but potentially higher cost for the extensive data capabilities.
Factors Influencing Data Capacity
- Internal Datalogger Memory: Some devices store data directly on the device.
- External Memory Cards: Many recorders utilize external memory cards, like the 4GB cards mentioned which is extendable, for larger storage capacities.
- Logging Interval: The frequency at which the recorder takes measurements (e.g., every 10 minutes vs. every 1 second) directly impacts how many data points are recorded over time.
- Recording Options: Devices with different logging options, such as logarithmic or exception-based recording, can manage their data storage more efficiently for specific applications.
