Introduction
The Triton IT Pressure Transient data logger can detect and log pressure surge data up to 1000 readings per second without interfering with the main recordings.
During threshold logging, the logger checks the pressure signal against the threshold settings 10 times per second and once triggered starts logging data at one of the configured log rate of 10Hz, 100Hz or 1KHz.
If external power is connected the logger can sample pressure at 1KHz continuously, detect and record data at 10Hz, 100Hz or 1KHz before during and after the surge event.
The logger software can also be upgraded in the field via the IrDA communications link.

Pressure spikes on water utility system
We are working on a water utility system, doing telemetry. We would like to sample the pipe pressure at a high rate, to detect some pressure spikes with a very minimal chance of missing such.
The external power option allows to use a sampling rate of 1kHz for capturing water hammer and other pressure spikes on water mains feeds and water networks. This transient feature allows you to capture events that general purpose pressure gauges and pressure loggers would miss thanks to its unique data logging regime which switches to a higher recording rate when there is a sudden change in pressure.
