Industrial Data Loggers Built for Mixed-Sensor Monitoring
Most monitoring jobs don’t stick to a single sensor type. You’ll have a few vibrating wire piezometers, a string of thermistors, maybe a load cell or two. Hooking each type to its own readout gets messy fast. Kingmach’s industrial data loggers solve this by accepting a wide mix on one platform—no dongles, no custom interfaces, no constant rewiring. They log from geotechnical, structural, and environmental sensors and push the data out through common industrial protocols. Since we manufacture in-house, channel counts and firmware can be adapted early in the process, so the logger fits your existing setup rather than forcing a redesign. Field crews appreciate the straightforward terminal connections and the clear indicator lights that show what’s running at a glance.
Technical Detail
Kingmach industrial data loggers are designed to bring in signals from the sensors you actually use: vibrating wire devices (with built-in swept-frequency excitation for stable readings), 4-20mA transmitters, thermistors, strain gauges, potentiometers, and digital sensors over RS-485. Typical configurations offer 8 to 32 analog channels plus dedicated digital buses, and we can adjust channel mixes at the factory to match your sensor inventory. Internal storage holds millions of timestamped records, buffered by battery-backed RAM so intermittent power doesn’t corrupt data. For connectivity, you can choose RS-232/485 with Modbus RTU for local SCADA, a USB port for laptop downloads, or 4G/LTE modem options. Upload intervals and alarm thresholds are set through a plain-text configuration file—no proprietary software license required. The logging engine handles both periodic and event-triggered sampling, and you can layer in conditional logging based on any channel reading. Enclosures are IP65 as standard, with pluggable terminal strips that simplify field swaps. Common applications include dam monitoring, tunnel convergence arrays, deep excavation instrumentation, and structural health monitoring (SHM) networks where sensor types vary node to node. Kingmach provides the logger, cabling diagrams, and remote support for commissioning. Because we keep engineering and assembly under one roof, lead times for small-batch custom configurations are typically shorter than the industry norm, and our distributors in over 30 countries can arrange local stock or service visits.

Yes. Our standard configurations include mixed input channels. For example, a 16-channel unit might have 8 vibrating wire inputs and 8 analog inputs for 4-20mA or voltage signals. During ordering, just specify the channel count and type split you need; we wire it and configure the firmware accordingly.
It depends on the model, but most Kingmach loggers range from 8 to 32 analog input channels, plus digital ports that can handle multiple RS-485 sensors on a single bus. If you let us know your sensor count and types, we can propose a channel layout that works right away—no need to add expansion modules.
We offer RS-485 with Modbus RTU for wired networks, USB for local data retrieval, and optional 4G LTE modules for cellular uploads. The 4G variant supports scheduled uploads to an FTP server or MQTT broker, so you can view data on a web dashboard without visiting the site.
Data can be accessed in common formats. Over Modbus, the logger maps each channel to readable registers. For file-based access, CSV exports are standard. If you use a particular IoT platform, we can often adjust the communication payload during configuration—just tell us the data format your system expects.
Yes. Kingmach works through a global distributor network, and many partners offer on-site support for setup and training. If your project requires remote commissioning, our engineers can guide your team via video call. For complex sensor mixes, we also provide detailed wiring diagrams and a test plan before shipping.
