DataTrac for Pocket Pump Software

With the optional DataTrac for Pocket Pump Software accessory, the Pocket Pump 
is programmable using a PC. DataTrac simplifies chain-of-custody reporting by 
allowing users the option of programming a complete running sequence, delayed 
start, and timed stop, all at different flow rates. Time and sample volume are con-
tinuously updated in memory. There is no need to perform lengthy calculations; 
DataTrac does it for you. The advanced information retrieval system is specifically 
designed to store data and provide chain-of-custody information. Fault features 
allow storage of historical data in memory that can be retrieved up to 24 hours 
after shutdown.

Features

  •  Program a sampling operation from a PC
  •  Calibrate pump flow to a primary standard
  •  Display the operating mode including Constant Flow or Constant Pressure, 

temperature, run time, and battery status of the connected pump

  •  Create a Pocket Pump program on a PC and upload to the pump for opera-

tion in the field

  •  Program up to 14 sampling sequences, each with different flow rates
  •  Download pump run time data and history to a PC
  •  Document sampling history using the sample set up feature
  •  Print a history file containing pump run time data
  •  Print a worker exposure profile containing run time data and the pump’s 

history
