CRVW3 Three-Channel Vibrating Wire Datalogger

Self-Contained Vibrating Wire Data Logger Using patented VSPECT® technology

9 ₫

The CRVW3 is a self-contained, low-cost, three-channel vibrating wire data logger. It is designed to be an independent data logger, or a component of your larger radio-linked data-acquisition network when it is configured with available wireless communication options. The CRVW3 includes a factory-integrated power supply and a weatherproof enclosure.

The CRVW3 uses vibrating wire spectral-analysis technology (VSPECT®) to provide the best measurement possible for vibrating wire sensors. VSPECT® observes the incoming sensor signal, performs a Fourier transform and a spectral analysis (transforming the time series into individual sinusoidal components in the frequency spectrum), and determines the sensor frequency by identifying the strongest signal in the acceptable range while filtering out environmental and electrical noise.

The CRVW3 provides the following data: the resonant sensor frequency, thermistor resistance for temperature calculation, and diagnostic values to help determine the validity of the frequency measurement.

Benefits and Features
