CR800 Data Logger Rugged & Reliable Data Loggers

The CR800 is a smaller, research-grade datalogger designed for stand-alone operation in harsh, remote environments. It is intended for smaller configurations in which fewer sensors will be measured.
Environment | Data Logger (Environment) | Campbell Scientific
  • Ideal applications include wind profiling, weather stations, ETo/agriculture, air quality, soil moisture, water level/stage, aquaculture, vehicle testing, Time Domain Reflectometry, SCADA, and water quality
  • Simpler in design, the CR800 and CR850 are easier to program and wire.
  • Serial communications with serial sensors and devices supported via I/O port pairs
  • Contains custom ASIC chip that expands pulse count, control port, and serial communications capabilities
  • Compatible with channel expansion peripherals allowing you to expand your system
  • Supports PakBus, Modbus, SDI-12, and DNP3 protocols
  • Includes both an CS I/O port and an RS-232 port for connecting communication devices
  • Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) protected inputs
  • Battery-backed clock that ensures accurate time is maintained while data logger is disconnected from battery power
  • Program with LoggerNet, PC400, or Short Cut to fit your setup
Operating Temperature Range
  • -25° to +50°C (standard)
  • Non-condensing environment
Maximum Scan Rate 100 Hz
Analog Inputs 6 single-ended or 3 differential (individually configured)
Pulse Counters 2
