The DataLogger records the fusion process on nearly all McElroy fusion machines.
Archive essential details related to the fusion operation and jobsite.
McElroy Optimized Cooling™ lessens time spent during the fusion joint's cooling cycle.
Real-time analysis allows for monitoring of the joint integrity during the fusion process.
A user-friendly interface with large buttons and concise on-screen instructions guide users through the process of entering pipe and fitting information, machine setup pressures and more. Once the fusion begins, the FusionGuide™ live graph visualizes recording time and pressure for open, close, and cool times — automatically highlighting areas of concerns that may be out of industry specification.
The DataLogger 7's internal 21 watt-hour battery and removable 43.2 watt-hour second battery allows the unit to last an entire workday. An Extended Life Kit is available with an extra removable battery and charger to supply endless power on the jobsite.

A fast processor and updated operating system allow for new performance and feature enhancements. Activate "Find My Device" to locate your DataLogger in case it is misplaced or stolen.
Good data, along with proper analysis, is the key to better understanding your business. By collecting and analyzing data from your fusion jobsite, you can gain new insights into your overall operations. A simple analysis done in-field or off-site can help provide assurances that each fusion joint was made using proper procedures and meets industry standards. Data can improve overall jobsite efficiencies and evaluation of individual operator productivity and performance. Fusion joint records can also include GPS data to provide for easier traceability. Understanding and using the information gained from logging fusion activities can significantly improve the bottom line. Finding new ways to manage, view and sort that data, and discovering new metrics to track will only improve decision making and overall jobsite performance. All this together adds real value to you and your customers.
