Endress+Hauser's new multi-channel process display and paperless recorder (in one single unit) gives you leading edge performance and reliability at an affordable price. Ecograph T RSG30 is identified by its innovative features, simplicity in use and space-saving design that enables it to deliver unparalleled price to performance ratio when compared to existing paper recorders, data loggers and process indicators or displays. Its features and benefits to a user include:

  • 20% Less Depth - meaning lower panel depth requirement, which in turn reduces overall costs.
  • 100ms Scan Rate - High performance to easily track fast signal changes.
  • Embedded Webserver - Built-in webserver to "monitor” anywhere on demand!
  • Communication Flexibility - RS232 for modems, USB for PC link, Ethernet/RS485 for network integration.
  • Long life Display - Large size display.
  • Compact Flash and Internal Memory - Far greater reliability due to digital memory and Industrial grade compact flash card.
  • Multi-channel display
  • Data logging and recording
  • Paper recorder replacements
  • Gateway applications between digital
  • Ethernet based systems and analog sensors
  • Measured data communication through Ethernet, Internet
  • Remote monitoring through Modem communication

Until now, a 3.5” floppy drive equipped paperless recorder had a depth of about 9" and cost at least twice the paper recorder.

With Ecograph T, there is no more wasted space.

Ten times faster scanning (100msec compared to 1sec on paper systems)

Allows instant access to all process data through the worldwide web.

Until now, a serial communication could require a maximum of 54700 baud rate requiring hours to download stored data or set up a unit connected to a notebook or PC.

Starting today, performance bottlenecks are history with seventy percent faster data exchange thanks to USB interface, and improved bandwidth and network capabilities thanks to standard Ethernet.

Data can be stored directly into Comma Separated Value (CSV) format.

The data can be read and analyzed in standard spreadsheet software, such as Microsoft Excel.

There is no staff training needed for this unit.

Special format files and ReadWin 2000 software is available for manipulation.

No licensing or fees are required.

Complete features are included with the unit, and all is downloadable from the Internet.

Find easy to use Windows-like menus:

Zero running costs and maintenance.

No continuous inspections.

When compared to about $200 per year for a paper recorder (cost of paper and pens) and paper changes every day/week/month as per settings and maintenance of mechanicals.

Lockable/sealable data storage cards allow a high level of security Target applications include:

    Endress+Hauser introduces Multi-channel Process Display

    The Eco-Graph T display delivers a good price to performance ratio when compared to existing paper recorders, data loggers, and process indicators/displays. Instead of using six different universal mono-chrome displays, one counter/timer/status, and three different relays and their status lamps, one can simply install the cost and time-saving Eco-Graph T.
