Monitoring Flush Mechanisms Using Automated Data CollectionPublished on January 11, 2012 Manufacturer: dataTakerMeasurements: Flow, Pressure CAS DataLoggers supplied the datalogging solution for a large manufacturer of toilet flushing mechanisms which wanted to automate the data collection in their product development lab. They had been using a combination of simple digital gauges for water pressure and flow as well as a stopwatch to capture test data for new designs. Each test of a new design change required measurement of maximum flow rate, total flow volume, minimum pressure, and fill time at a number of differ... |

Testing Filtration Systems in Pools and Hot TubsPublished on December 13, 2011 Manufacturer: dataTakerMeasurements: Current, Flow, Pressure, Voltage CAS DataLoggers recently provided the datalogging solution for a customer who wanted to capture data to demonstrate how the latest design of their filter element could improve the energy efficiency of filtering systems for pools and hot tubs. To determine the efficiency of the system, several different types of data needed to be collected, including water flow rate, water pressure in the system, voltage, current and power for the pump motor, and water cleanliness. As these we... |

Knowing the Strength of Curing ConcretePublished on October 17, 2011 Manufacturer: dataTakerMeasurements: Temperature CAS DataLoggers recently provided a local construction company with the datalogging solution for one of their larger contracts. The customer needed to measure and predict the curing progress of freshly-poured concrete to determine when the new structure could be loaded without causing damage to the foundations. A newly-poured concrete structure could not reach full strength for a considerable period of time, but it was critical to determine as closely as possible what that du... |
