Humidity, Temperature and Dew Point USB Data Logger
This data logger measures and stores up to 16,382 relative humidity and 16,382 temperature readings over 0 to
100%RH and -35 to +80°C(-31 to +176°F) measurement ranges. The user can easily set up the logging rate and starttime, and download the stored data by plugging the module straight into a PC's USB port and running the purpose
designed software under Windows 98, 2000 or XP. Relative humidity, temperature and dew point (the temperature at
which water vapor present in the air begins to condense) data can then be graphed, printed and exported to other
applications. The data logger is supplied complete with a long-life lithium battery, which can typically allow logging for
a year. Status indication is via flashing red and green LEDs. The logger is protected against ingress from water and dust
to IP67 standard when the plastic cap and seal are fitted.

• Logging Rate (10s, 1m, 5m, 30m, 1hr, 6hr, 12hr)
• High and Low Alarms for Humidity and Temperature
* Depending on sample rate, ambient temperature and use of alarm LEDs
** This specifies the overall error in the logged readings, for relative humidity measurements between 20 and 80%RH.
*** This specifies the overall error in the calculated dew point, for relative humidity measurements between 40 and 100%RH at 25°C.

Humidity, Temperature and Dewpoint USB Data Logger
LED FLASHING MODES
EL-USB-2 features 2 bi-colour LEDs, one LED represents temperature measurement, the other represents RH. Each is clearly
marked on the logger. To save power, the status indication alternates between the two channels every 10 seconds. So first you
will see the status of the temperature logging and 10 seconds later you will see the status of the RH logging and so on.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Werecommend that you replace the battery every 12 months, or prior to logging critical data.
The EL-USB-2 does not lose its stored readings when the battery is discharged or when the battery is replaced; the
data logging process will however be stopped and cannot be re-started until the battery has been replaced and the
logged data has been downloaded to PC.
Only use 3.6V 1/2AA lithium batteries. Check with your supplier that the battery you are ordering is 'press fit' and
is not fitted with solder tags. Before replacing the battery,removethe EL-USB-2 from the PC.
Note:
Leaving the EL-USB-2 plugged into the USB port for longer than necessary will cause some of the battery capacity
to be lost.
WARNING: Handle lithium batteries carefully, observe warnings on battery casing.
Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
RECONDITIONING PROCEDURE
Exposure of the internal sensor to chemical vapors may interfere with the internal sensor and cause inaccurate
readings to be logged. In a clean environment, this will slowly rectify itself. However, exposure to extreme
conditions or chemical vapors will require the following reconditioning procedure to bring the internal sensor back
to calibration state.
80°C (176°F) at < 5%RH for 36h (baking) followed by
20-30°C (70-90°F) at > 74%RH for 48h (re-hydration)
High levels of pollutants may cause permanent damage to the internal sensor.
