Onset (Bourne, MA) has announced the HOBO Plug Load Logger, an easy-to-deploy data logger that measures and records the power and energy consumption of 120-V plug loads from office equipment, vending machines, and other devices. The HOBO Plug Load Logger provides 0.5 percent measurement accuracy with a measurement resolution of 1 Watt, making it appropriate for building audits where detailed energy use data is required. The logger can measure up to six parameters – True RMS Voltage, True RMS Current, Watts, Watt-hours/Kilowatt-hours, Apparent Power, and Power Factor – to provide a comprehensive plug load profile. Its rugged housing is designed to withstand the rigors of real-world handling, providing reliable performance despite bumps, drops, and use under desks. The HOBO Plug Load Logger features an easy-to-view LCD that visually confirms logger operation and battery status, and displays real-time plug load variables without having to connect the logger to a computer to view the information. Additional features include:
- A large memory to enable faster logging intervals for more comprehensive plug load profiles.
- “Meter Mode” to provide instant viewing of real-time plug load variables.
- Battery backup ensures logged data remains intact in the event of a power outage or load failure.
- Accompanying HOBOware software for graphing and analyzing plug load data.
