The X2-SDL has flexible power input choices that provide several options in terms of type and number of power sources. Basic Requirements 5-24 VDC [+/-10%] (Reverse polarity protected) Current Draw (Typical @ 12VDC): Low power sleep: 350uA; Logger Active: 35mA; Wi-Fi Transmitting: 43mA; Cellular Transmitting: 300mA Peak Current: 500mA @ 12V for 1 […]
The following practices should be carried out when placing an X2-SDL data logger in storage for an extended period of time: Remove all D-Cell batteries inside the data logger. The battery installation procedure can be referenced for removal guidance. Batteries left inside may leak and corrode the internal compartment of the logger. Any X2-SDL left powered […]
The X2-SDL requires (16) D-Cell Duracell1 Alkaline batteries. 1D-cell batteries from other manufacturers may have sub-flush negative terminals which can result in poor contact and may affect the consistency of power supplied to the X2-SDL logger.
The X2-SDL is rated for submersion up to 200ft (~60m) depth. Note that the SDL-CAP accessory is required to fully submerge cellular or radio models containing an external antenna. The antenna port of Wi-Fi only models is epoxied closed and may be completely submerged using the standard battery lid.
