How Expensive is Process Downtime?

Don’t Be At Risk of Delays and Shutdowns

Is your plant or factory using legacy PLC systems, SCADA systems, I/O controllers, or other aging control equipment? While many businesses consider it too costly to upgrade their older systems, this puts them at increased risk of process downtime in the form of delays and shutdowns. With some estimates pricing just an hour of downtime at $100,000 or more for the Fortune 1000, can you afford to keep relying on obsolete infrastructure?

Intelligent Systems for Monitoring and Control:

dataTaker DT80GW Geotechnical data logger with integrated wifi -process downtimeThe latest models of data loggers and data acquisition systems have several intelligent monitoring capabilities which can help optimize your process or solve a specific problem for your company’s operations.

Intelligent automated systems can automatically transmit alarm notifications over SMS text message or email. As a common example, it’s simple to configure the data logger so that whenever productivity or machine runtime drops, users will get an instant alarm.

For example, the new Series 4 dataTaker Data Loggers can perform both monitoring and control tasks, freeing your personnel from having to take manual measurements themselves. dataTaker systems feature universal analog input channels to connect with a wide range of sensor types including thermocouples, thermistors, current transducers, and more—all on one system using one software application.

At CAS DataLoggers we have many dataTaker models to suit your exact channel count and communication preferences, whether USB, Serial, Ethernet, Cellular Modem, Wireless or more.
