Several models are available, as shown in the following table:
The main features of the HI 141 thermologgers include:
• One or two channels, with internal or external sensor;
• 16000 samples (for 1 channel models) or
8000 samples/channel (for 2 channels models);
• Logging interval from 1 second to 24 hours;
• Storing of temperature at logging interval, or min or
max temperature between logging intervals;
• Logging delay start up to 199 hours, and magnetic start
through magnetic key provided with the thermologger;
• Programmable high and low alarms;
• Non-volatile storage of logging parameters and data in
EEPROM;
• BEPS (Battery Error Prevention System);
• Security Password and lot serial number;
• Optional LCD with status, temperature and information
display;
