SmartReader Plus 8 - Seven-Channel Thermistor Temperature Logger

The SmartReader Plus 8 is a proven, eight-channel temperature data logger designed for applications that require simultaneous temperature monitoring at multiple points. It combines an internal thermistor sensor with up to seven external thermistor probe inputs, making it well-suited for environmental monitoring, equipment validation, and process verification where spatial temperature variation matters. Using high-resolution thermistor measurement and long-term battery operation, the SmartReader Plus 8 delivers accurate, repeatable temperature data across a wide range of industrial, laboratory, and facility monitoring applications.

Key Features

  • Eight temperature channels: One internal thermistor plus seven external channels for remote thermistor probes
  • Wide probe compatibility: Supports ACR ET-Series thermistor probes for air, surface, liquid, penetration, and high-temperature measurements
  • Long-life lithium battery: Designed for long-term, unattended monitoring
  • Simple configuration and analysis: Compatible with TrendReader software for setup, download, and graphing

While this product remains available for purchase, we now offer the SRX8 Eight Channel Thermistor Temperature Logger as a next-generation alternative — delivering the same core functionality, along with increased battery capacity, two-stage alarming, and equal or better memory, all at a lower cost. Please contact us if you have any questions!

Many temperature monitoring challenges are not about a single point—they’re about understanding temperature distribution. Whether validating a storage room, monitoring HVAC performance, verifying food or pharmaceutical processes, or tracking temperature gradients inside equipment, the SmartReader Plus 8 provides a practical way to collect synchronized data from multiple locations using a single logger.

The SmartReader Plus 8 uses precision NTC thermistor technology, offering excellent resolution and stability in the temperature ranges most relevant to environmental and industrial monitoring. External probes connect via screw-terminal inputs, allowing sensors to be permanently installed while the logger itself can be removed for data retrieval without disturbing wiring.

With support for a broad range of thermistor probe styles—including air, surface, immersion, penetration, and high-temperature probes—the SmartReader Plus 8 adapts easily to changing applications. Combined with flexible sampling rates and large memory capacity, it is well-suited for both short-term validation studies and long-term trending.

This combination of measurement accuracy, channel density, and installation flexibility has made the SmartReader Plus 8 a long-standing solution for engineers, technicians, and quality professionals who need reliable multi-point temperature data without unnecessary complexity.

Calibration

Data loggers are often used in highly regulated environments such as food and pharmaceutical production and storage where strict safety regulations apply. Regulatory agencies generally require proof of calibration.

ACR calibrations are performed using reference standards that have been calibrated and are traceable to the US National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST). This ensures that all ACR data loggers meet, and perform to, their published specifications, allowing you to be confident that they will assist you in achieving your compliance requirements.

Calibration certificates are provided with every calibration we perform. ACR Systems is an ISO 9001:2015 registered company and calibration records are kept as part of our quality system and can be made available for customer audits.
