ARCHER-OBS-EM

Handheld Field PC for the OBS-3A System (extended memory)

The Archer-OBS-EM is a 512-MB version of Juniper Systems' Archer Field PC with specialized software. The Archer-OBS-EM is designed to interface with our OBS-3A Turbidity and Temperature Monitoring System. The Archer Field PC is ultrarugged, meaning you can be sure your data is safe—even in extreme environments. With an IP67 rating, the Archer is completely sealed against dust and water.  And it won't break down or fail in extreme temperatures—it is constructed to operate in temperatures as cold as -30°C or as hot as 50°C.  The Archer has been designed to withstand multiple drops onto concrete from a height of 5 ft.  Couple these features with a battery life of up to 20 hours and a screen designed for readability in direct sunlight, and you've got a handheld data-collection device that won't let you down.
