April 18, 2008—Utility managers considering the pros and cons of switching to wireless monitoring of temperature conditions can now make more informed technology decisions with the Wireless Savings Calculator offered by Dickson Company, manufacturer of the Wireless Wizard Temperature Data Logger.
Utility managers often need to monitor temperature conditions but nobody wants to spend a lot of time doing so, explains the company. The benefit of wireless data logging is that the user no longer needs to spend time retrieving data. Temperature data—both trends and real-time readings—is automatically displayed on the desktop monitor whenever the user wants to refer to it. If the user adds up the hours that would otherwise be spent on collecting and downloading data the time-savings is significant and this translates into a rapid return-on-investment by switching to wireless technology. Just how quickly a user will recoup investments varies and the calculator enables the user to get a firm idea of just what the real dollar savings over time will be.
Dicksons Wireless Wizard is arguably the first wireless data logger that is truly failsafe, according to the company. It provides up to 9-day data backup storage with failsafe Dickson Data-Keep. Its easy to set up and will give users ongoing feedback on network status with the Wizard Signal Sensor.
