Product Notes
The Temp101A is second to none in the compact, portable and low cost data logger
class. This device can measure and record ambient temperature from -40 °C to 80 °C and
is approximately the size of a matchbox which allows for easy placement even in tight
spaces.
The Temp101A features a pushbutton start/stop on the device or can be configured to
start and stop using the MadgeTech Data Logger Software, with the ability to schedule a
delayed start up to eighteen months in advance. These features combined with the ability
to store up to 2,000,000 readings makes the Temp101A the ideal solution for long term
temperature deployment and monitoring cycles
