During the installation phases of any type of instrument, when possible, it is always advisable to have a portable readout acquisition unit for the functional verification of sensors, both before and during all phases of installation.
The availability of a read-out unit also during the operation of the system protects against the loss of information in the event of a failure of the automatic acquisition system.
Various portable readout units are available today, depending on the type of sensor to be monitored and the characteristics required. There are individual readout units for analog and vibrating wire instruments as well as readout units that manage both types of sensors with the possibility of configuring individual channels and data storage.
