XV. Installing the Data logger

The data logger is an electronic device and sensitive to excessive mechanical

abuse. Do not drop the logger or otherwise subject it to mechanical shock.

The assembly can be heavy and could do significant damage to the logger

housing if handled improperly.

Do not hammer the prongs to tighten the

logger onto the hydrant, only use a spanner

wrench of appropriate size and turn the logger

carefully as it is tighten or is removed.

Do not twist the logger housing.

XVI. Battery Replacement:

Except for the battery, there are no user-serviceable parts inside the PL200H Data

Logger. Global Water recommends checking the batteries every 6 to12 months, or

when the battery voltage monitor shows a low voltage condition of 3.4 volts or less.

To change the battery; turn the thumbscrew in the center of the top cover counter-

clockwise and remove it. Remove the 3 screws holding down the crossbar.

Replace the battery with a 3.6 volt AA size lithium battery only, AA size

batteries commonly used in consumer electronics only produce 1.5 volts and

will not operate the data logger. Be careful to observe the polarity, align the

battery as shown. The high capacity battery described in the specifications section

is recommended. Replace the crossbar, making sure that the cutout on one side is

properly aligned with the USB port.
