Dpstar is a leading supplier of environmental measurement sensors for temperature, relative humidity, pressure, dew point, CO2, and other environmental condition monitoring for industrial process application and research. Since the ’90s, we earned a reputation as a trusted partner to our clients through our commitment and dedication. We are an authorized distributor and supplier of measuring sensors solutions from renowned manufacturers Vaisala. Vaisala is a global leader in environmental and industrial measurement. Building on 80 years of experience, Vaisala provides observations for a better world. Vaisala is a reliable partner for customers around the world, offering a comprehensive range of innovative observation and measurement products and services.

RFL100 Data Logger uses Vaisala’s proprietary VaiNet wireless technology. It can be used to monitor temperature (T), relative humidity (RH), and carbon dioxide levels (CO2) in a wide range of environments. Suitable applications include warehouses, production areas, cleanrooms, laboratories, incubators, fridges, cold storage areas, and freezers down to −196 °C (approx. −320 °F).

RFL100 connects wirelessly to Vaisala viewLinc Monitoring System, which provides real-time trends, alarms, and historical reporting. VaiNet wireless
technology is based on the LoRa modulation technique to provide a robust wireless signal that is extremely reliable over long distances and in complex, obstructed conditions. This wireless technology allows the data logger’s signal to travel over 100 m (approx. 330 ft) indoors without the aid of signal amplifiers or repeaters. Wireless communications are encrypted to ensure data integrity and security. Measurements are updated and stored every 60 seconds and sent from the data logger every 4 minutes. In case of temporary network disruptions, the data logger can record up to 30 days of
measurements that are automatically transmitted to the viewLinc Enterprise Server software when communications are restored. Recorded data can also be downloaded directly from RFL100 through the USB port.

RFL100 requires no startup configuration, and the included mounting bracket supports several installation methods. The detailed custom display shows the latest measurement results, alarm and battery status, and signal strength of the current access point connection. The housing is classified IP54 to protect the device from dust and cleaning.

Key Benefits

Data Integrity

The RFL data loggers can record up to 30 days of measurements to the logger’s internal memory. Data recorded at the point of measurement is automatically transmitted when communications are restored and can also be downloaded directly using a USB cable.

Detachable Probe For Quick Calibration
Probes are easily changed on RFL data loggers to maintain accurate records and reliable data. The probes use Vaisala HUMICAP® Humidity and Platinum RTD sensors to provide superior stability.

Easy To Use
Able to store measurements once every 60 seconds and the detailed custom LCD provides information about current conditions, battery life, alarm, and signal status at a glance.
