The Most Valuable Tool On Your Jobsite

The need for better record keeping and increased accountability is growing among those who build and manage pipeline infrastructures. New standards, including ASTM F3124, have been implemented to govern the collection of data from plastic pipe fusions. The new DataLogger® 6 from McElroy meets these requirements by capturing the most important information related to fusion operations. It is now easier than ever before to add improved traceability and a higher level of assurance that pipelines were fused properly before they go into service.

An entirely new interface was constructed from the ground up to be easy to use. Interaction studies and feedback from users in the field influenced the design for an intuitive and easy-to-understand new experience.

Simple, guided process

Large buttons and concise on-screen instructions guide users through the fusion process. The DataLogger walks operators through the process of entering pipe and fitting information, machine setup pressures and more.

Supports Multiple Types of Fusion

Support for butt, sidewall, mitered and dual-containment fusion is included.

On-Screen Help

Context-sensitive resources are available during key points of the fusion process. Just tap the question mark icon in the lower left of the screen to view videos or other information based on the current stage of the fusion process.

Use the built-in WiFi, or a cellular signal to sync. When working in remote locations with no signal, the DataLogger 6 will sync joint reports as soon as a connection is established.

* Where cellular signal is available.

Easily Input Specs

Improve efficiency in the field by scanning pipe and fitting information with the built-in 2D barcode scanner. Quickly document fusion machine characteristics, operator information and more using the simple interface.

Front & Rear Cameras

Capture jobsite conditions

Save photos of jobsite conditions and every fusion joint on each job. The DataLogger 6 is equipped with a 2 MP front and 8 MP rear cameras allowing capture and storage of photos with fusion joint data records.

Syncs with McElroy Vault™

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 evaluate 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 your fusion activities can significantly improve your bottom line. Finding new ways to manage, view and sort that data, and discovering new metrics to track will only improve your decision making and overall jobsite performance. All this together adds real value to you and your customers.
