About Rechargeable Power Supplies

All of our dataloggers can be powered by a rechargeable power supply that consists of a rechargeable battery, regulator, and charging source. The charging source powers the system while float-charging the batteries. The batteries then provide back-up power if the charging source is interrupted.

 

A regulator must be used to connect rechargeable batteries with a charging source. The regulator controls the current flowing to the battery and prevents the battery current from flowing to the charging source.

 

Our CR510, CR500, CR10, CR10X, CR800, CR850, and CR1000 dataloggers use the PS100 rechargeable power supply for many applications (see Integrated Power Supplies). Our CR23X, CR3000, CR5000, CR7, CR9000XC, and CR9000X dataloggers include batteries as part of their integrated package. Battery nominal ratings are 7.0 Ahr for the PS100, CR23X, CR3000, CR5000, CR7, and CR9000XC; 2.5 Ahr for the CR7; and 14 Ahrs for the CR9000X.
