HOBO® U30-NRC Data Logger

U30 USB Weather Station Data Logger

This rugged weather station is Onset’s most durable outdoor
environmental monitoring solution. Users can easily configure the
HOBO U30-NRC Weather Station to fit their application needs. Use
up to 15 channels to collect environmental data and then upload to
HOBOware® software for analysis. HOBOware Pro is
recommended for extended features, see the comparison here. The
U30-NRC has four configurable systems, that can be configured
below, that consist of the following part numbers: U30-NRC-000-05­S100-000, U30-NRC-000-10-S100-000, U30-NRC-VIA-05­S100-000, and U30-NRC-VIA-10-S100-000.

Supported Measurements:

4-20mA, AC Current, AC Voltage, Air Velocity, Amp Hour (Ah),
Amps (A), Barometric Pressure, Carbon Dioxide, Compressed Air
Flow, DC Current, DC Voltage, Differential Pressure, Gauge
Pressure, Kilowatt Hours (kWh), Kilowatts (kW), Leaf Wetness,
Light Intensity, Power Factor (PF), Pulse Input, Rainfall, Relative
Humidity, Soil Moisture, Temperature, Volatile Organic Comp., Volt­Amp Reactive, Volt-Amp Reactive hour, Volt-Amps (VA), Volts (V),
Water Flow, Water Level, Watt Hours (Wh), Watts (W) and Wind
