TSM1 Infrared Data Logger

• The TSM1 is a fully self-contained unit, only requiring power input from a 20W solar panel (field applications) or 24V power supply (glasshouse applications).
• The TSM1 is a stand-alone instrument and does not have extensive cabling and power requirements. All data is stored within the unit on a removable MicroSD card.
• Communication with the TSM1 is made either with a USB or wireless connection. Wireless is capable of distances up to 250m.
• The TSM1 has Windows and Mac compatible configuration software. The software is GUI based and extremely user-friendly. Custom calibration equations or data can be entered and edited via the software. Real-time measurements, diagnostics and sensor configuration can easily be made.
• The TSM1 has 2 wire, non-polarised bus for power input. There is no chance of incorrect wiring of positive and negative voltage because the TSM1 is non-polarised.
• The TSM1 has an internal lithium polymer battery that is kept charged by an external power supply (solar panel or mains). The instrument has internal voltage regulation for maximum power reliability.
• The TSM1 is IP-65 rated and have been demonstrated to operate in extreme environmental conditions. Units are being used in diverse environments, hot Australian deserts, tropical Amazon rainforests, temperate German forests, Indian agricultural fields and North American Arctic cold.

Applications include:

• Plant physiology (leaf and canopy temperature)
• Soil, air and fluid temperature
• Thermistor strings for borehole monitoring
• Concrete temperature during drying
• Building energy use studies
