Multiplexer

The AM16/32B multiplexer significantly increases the number of sensors that can be measured by a dataloggers. It interfaces with the datalogger and adds terminals for wiring additional sensors of almost any type.

Significantly increases the number of sensors the datalogger can measure, Can multiplex 16, 32, or 48 sensors, Supports many types of sensors including thermistors, potentiometers, strain gages, vibrating wires, reflectometers, and soil moisture blocks, Decreases the cost of cabling individual sensors on long wire runs, Allows a relay address to be used to go directly to a specific channel—reducing power consumption and wear on the relay switches, Protects the equipment from electrical surges by including gas tubes on all of the inputs and having a ground lug, Prevents sensor-cable damage by providing strain relief for sensor leads and independent routing for sensor shield lines, Eliminates the requirement for dc blocking capacitors for gypsum soil moisture blocks, significantly reducing sensor cost.
