The DataTaker range of data loggers are a family of robust, stand-alone, intelligent data acquisition units widely recognised as the “Swiss Army knives” of the monitoring world. Known for their unique universal and dual-channel isolation technology, these loggers can simultaneously accept an incredibly broad mix of sensors, including thermocouples, RTDs, strain gauges, 4-20mA loops, and voltage inputs, without requiring external signal conditioning. The lineup scales from compact, specialised options like the low-power DT82E (environmental) and DT82I (industrial) versions up to the highly expandable DT80 (general purpose) and DT85 (advanced) series, which can handle hundreds of inputs using CEM20 channel expansion modules. Equipped with built-in dEX web software, extensive communication capabilities (such as Modbus, FTP and email), and rugged IP54-rated housing, the DataTaker range is engineered to serve as completely self-contained solutions for complex industrial, scientific, environmental, and geotechnical field applications.
DataTaker is one of the world’s leading brands of general purpose and specialised data loggers and data recording equipment. Omni Instruments has been at the forefront of integrating their robust loggers into systems since the 1990s, supporting the brand’s evolution from early legacy models like the DT50, DT500, and DT600 through to today’s cutting-edge hardware. Today, we not only supply the DataTaker product portfolio across the UK, backed by our extensive application expertise, but include their loggers on a flexible weekly hire fleet to accommodate short-term project requirements, or to test their suitability for your project before buying.
The dataTaker DT82E series measures and logs analog and digital data from numerous electrical sensors or analog instruments, RTDs, thermocouples, temperature sensors, strain gauges, current loops, voltages, resistance and frequencies.
The geotechnical loggers from dataTaker include the DT80G and DT85G loggers. These provide support for reading vibrating wire strain gauge and electromechanical sensors which are common within geotechnical applications. This logger is suitable to be used in geotechnical applications such as slope stability, subsidence, dam wall monitoring, tunnel and mining excavation, ground water, tunnel wall monitoring, and site assessment.
The DataTaker range of industrial loggers includes the DT80. DT82I and DT85 loggers comprising a family of advanced data loggers, ranging from six channel data loggers to systems with 960 analogue inputs and many digital inputs. These loggers measure and log analogue and digital data from numerous electrical sensors or analogue instruments, RTDs, thermocouples, temperature sensors, current loops, voltages, resistance and frequencies.
The CEM20 (Channel Expansion Module) is DataTaker’s proprietary relay multiplexer designed to scale up sensor capacity cost-effectively without requiring multiple master loggers. The Datataker CEM20 expansion modules only support the DT80 and DT85 Data Loggers, Series 2 and above.
Our hire fleet includes some of the DataTaker range, the compact DT82i, versatile DT80, and high-density DT85 are all available for flexible weekly hire. Featuring universal inputs for almost any sensor, these intelligent loggers arrive fully tested and ready for rapid field deployment.
