By DE Editors

The OM-MICROLITE is Omega Engineering, Inc.s (Stamford, CT) new pocket size portable temperature data logger with USB interface enabling fast track communication. Though this low-cost unit is small in size, the data can clearly be read on the logger’s numeric LCD display. High in accuracy, the data logger can be used globally because of its CE mark and standard long life 3V lithium battery. The OM-MICROLITE works with the MICROLAB-LITE software, which can be downloaded for free at Omega.com. This product has been dustproof and waterproof tested to meet the highest market standards (IP 68). It is designed for ultimate application accessibility, whether mobile or static. Typical applications include transportation as well as ware-housing of food, drugs and hi-tech equipment, perfect for Pharmaceutical and Semiconductor industries.

The small data logger is for monitoring and recording temperature.

The MicroLab software is used to access the electronics records, display the logger data, analyze the data and allow the user to add the appropriate digital signatures to the electronic records, in addition to other features. An additional security feature is the USB port dongle, without which the MicroLab and DatPass software packages will not operate.

It is compatible with Windows 98/2000/ME/XP/NT 4.0 or higher and Vista, and is available with OM-MICROLAB 21 CFR Part 11 Standards Compliance Software.
