FROG RX

Like its namesake FROG is an unobtrusive friend that sits quietly keeping an eye on things, ready to leap into action when there is imminent danger.

FROG RX operates either as a standalone battery-powered data logger or as a telemetry logger.

The ruggedised, low cost IP68 device is designed to fit inside a 100mm (4ins) tube.

It is particularly targeted at hydrometric monitoring including riverside tubes and groundwater level monitoring in boreholes.

It even fits under small meter-box covers with no need to provide large secondary enclosures, or clamped to a pole or lamppost. FROG shares the some proven hardware and software platform with the Hawk range but with fewer input options.

applications

*Single input IP68 logger with up to eight channels
