The Schneider Electric Data Logger line of products are ultra low-power, autonomous wireless telemetry devices. The Data Logger 4G LTE-Dominant IIoT solution offers modularity and flexibility to remote data acquisition for secure and affordable infrastructure networks.
Data Logger provides SCADA connectivity with secure cloud-based or customer on premise storage of sensor data. The redundant communication concurrently supports 4G LTE, 3G, 2G, LPWAN and Bluetooth connectivity with an IP 68/NEMA 6P enclosure rating. The easy installation and operation means your Data Logger can be up and operating within minutes.
Remote monitoring means minimal maintenance, which lowers overall costs and increases efficiency.
Schneider Electric is now launching additions to the Data Logger line of products. The Data Logger LT and the Data Logger IS. These devices provide the same reliability and ruggedness as the current Data Logger, while offering customization to your specific application.
Along with these devices, two variants of “On Premise” architecture are now available. These options are for customers requiring information directed to and stored on the customer site. This architecture is compatible with SCADA and other back-office systems.
Take advantage of these opportunities to begin your wireless monitoring of remote assets. Know exactly what is occurring in your systems with this Schneider Electric wireless cellular technology.

EcoStruxure Geo SCADA Expert, formerly Control Microsystems ClearSCADA, is designed to transform field data into business-relevant information and optimize the operation and management of remote assets across critical infrastructures. Geo SCADA works equally well with smaller on-site SCADA systems as well as multiregional systems with layers of redundancy and scalability to millions of monitored points.
Using high performance graphics, geographical displays, historian analytics and intelligent alarms, Geo SCADA Expert delivers real-time data intelligence, transforming key process insights into information that is instrumental in optimizing operation efficiency and managing geographically dispersed assets.
Total cost of ownership is a critical factor in measuring the value of a SCADA system since it is a function of up-front and ongoing costs associated with product configuration, operation and maintenance.
Geo SCADA Expert helps to reduce costs across the entire system with optimized SCADA functionality, easy to modify and replicate object templates.

5580 Signal Conditioner & SW5580 Dual Channel Switch
Until now, monitoring reciprocating compressors has not been for the faint of heart. At installed costs often exceeding $100,000 per throw, incumbent solutions – although very capable and comprehensive – have been cost-effective for only the most critical class of machines conforming to API 618 standards.
But what about other units such as those conforming to ISO-13631? In all likelihood, they’re under monitored or even unmonitored because historically, the economics simply haven’t penciled out.
Enter the Metrix 5580 smart signal conditioner and SW5580 dual channel switch. A fully configurable design means a single universal device can address various channel types including rod drop, frame vibration, impact, crosshead acceleration, as well as vibration, speed, and position measurements on the prime mover.
At installed costs of less than $10,000 per throw, the justification threshold for monitoring has been dramatically reduced – by a factor of 10X in some cases. Sensors, services, and a rightsized monitoring approach that leverages your existing control system’s monitoring capabilities.

We have all felt the impact of the supply chain issues, shipping delays and labor shortages. As we look forward into 2022, Neal Systems has been taking steps to ensure our customers are shielded from some of the avoidable problems that can occur when you have limited stock and limited staff. Our team has a large technician team with varying expertise areas that can provide expert level maintenance and engineering for you.
Our on-site calibrations, which are done via a tablet, generate certificates electronically and immediately. All information is stored securely in the cloud with full customer access to make searching, sorting and filtering certificates easy.
The technicians on our preventative maintenance team can perform a range of tasks from single instruments through to entire systems. They have experience in dealing with situations where no drawings or manuals currently exist and can reverse engineer those documents through site visits from highly experienced field personnel. This means we can either follow established PM procedures or design and document them from scratch.
Need on site-service on a whim? NSI has a range of unscheduled plans ranging from cost effective business hours, telephone only support, right through to 24/7/365 on-site support. All service plans get a dedicated telephone number that rings through directly to the service department during work hours and the on-call service tech during off hours.
Need a guarantee of on time shipment? For an annual fee, a customer can buy into the full guaranteed stock list with the knowledge that NSI will ship the same day if requested before 2pm.
NSI can even monitor your SCADA and PLC networks remotely to let you know if there are any problems before you even know yourself. These services can prevent downtown and limit the expenses associated with installation and instrumentation assistance.
These are just some of the services available to our customers. We look forward to assisting you with reliable, efficient and on-time services and solutions in 2022. For a complete list of available options schedule, a quick call with one of our team members today!
