DATA SHEET TMI-Orion CeriDry FullRadio Temperature, humidity and shrinkage data logger Real time monitoring of temperature, humidity and shrinkage in drying processes of bricks, tiles and ceramics. CeriDry FullRadio is an autonomous data logger equipped with one temperature sensor, one humidity sensor and one rectractometer. This data logger correlates the changes in relative humidity and air temperature with the shrinkage of bricks, tiles or ceramics during the drying process. It also enables the acute evaluation of drying within two parts of the same brick or tile. CeriDry FullRadio is equipped with a 2.4 GHz radio transceiver as the unique communication interface. In addition to its data logger functionalities, it is designed for remote set up and radio data transmission, in real time or after the process, through a radio modem connected to a PC. The PC is equipped with Qlever software platform for logger setup and process data collection, management and display. Each logger can be calibrated and adjusted at the temperature points corresponding to the user’s needs. (*) The specified uncertainties correspond to two standard deviations. The uncertainties are calculated taking into account the various significant error sources, including the calibration probes, the equipment, the environmental conditions, the influence of the logger, repeatability, etc...

functions • Radio set up, start and reading of data • 2.4 GHz bidirectional radio communication • Radio transceiver set up: transmission duration and rate (1 per hour to 1 per second) • Start set up: immediate or delayed • Memory set up: stop at maximum capacity or loop writing • Real time or after the fact radio data transmission • Time stamped measurement data • Battery level alert with Qlever software (*) A preliminary test is recommended to validate the hertzian transmission in the user’s application. • TMI-Orion 2.4 GHz bidirectional radio protocol, based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard /...

Autonomy The CeriDry FullRadio is powered by a battery pack; its autonomy depends on environment and operational conditions of the application (extreme temperatures, radio range, electromagnetic disturbances, data acquisition and transmission rate). As an indicator, for an industrial drying process of ceramics, bricks or tiles, autonomy is 550 hours at 140°C with an acquisition rate of 1 acquisition every 10 seconds. As a result of the variety of environments and operational conditions, TMI-Orion does not guaranty the battery lifetime and recommends that the user determine the battery...
