Made more compact

The new SPC Pro 2 actually comes in two flavours, the standard SPC Pro 2 and the SPC Pro 2 Enviro.  Elcomponent MD Bill Gysin explains: "We’ve redesigned the unit so it’s much more compact and therefore easier to use where space in the panel is tight, and that allowed us to lower production costs a little.

"That in turn allowed us to add more performance and more features without increasing the price. The big news with the SPC Pro 2 is the much bigger memory and the memory stick download capability. The user doesn’t need a laptop or a PC plus a connection cable to download the logger – they simply plug in a memory stick and the SPC Pro 2 dumps all its data to it.

"Our revised PowerPackPro PC software that comes with the logger (and for free at www.spcloggers.com) recognises the memory stick so you can transfer the data to PC and process it any time you wish.

"The old model had a well-deserved reputation for being more or less bulletproof – which was not surprising as it used a genuine ‘Peli’ case, and we needed to maintain that level of toughness for the customers who needed it.  In fact we’ve gone one better and the SPC Pro 2 Enviro doesn’t just use the Peli case, it has fully sealed connectors and cable entry so it’s actually rated at IP66 – unheard of for this type of instrument. Functionally the two models are exactly the same, but the Enviro version can be left out in the rain.” Stand F62
