The EasyTrack3 Thermal Profiling System is designed for temperature profiling of powder coating ovens and products and provides an easy, robust, powerful oven profiling tool.

Datapaq ET3 Data Logger

The ET3 datalogger guarantees accurate temperature profiling and is designed with easy two-button operation. The plastic cool-touch case allows safe and comfortable handling even after the most demanding runs. Supplied with onboard calibration certificate, the ET3 temperature logger provides complete traceability.

The ET3 data logger features include:

Temperature measurement range: -150 to 500°C (-238 to 932°F)
Choice of 4 or 6 channels
Simply 'plug & go' with auto-detection by software
SmartPaq for simple runs “pass” or “fail” indication at oven exit direct from logger
Sampling rate as low as 0.5 second
Memory capacity: 18.000 readings per channel per run
Multiple run capability of 3 runs separately stored in logger
Onboard calibration data

Thermal barriers

The EasyTrack3 profiling system comes with a range of thermal thermal barriers that guarantee robust thermal protection and continuous performance run after run.

The TB0253 thermal barrier provides 2 hours protection at 200°C (392°F); with weight of only 3kg (6.5 lbs) and height of 110mm (4.3 in), it’s easy to transport.
The TB0263 thermal barrier is designed for more demanding powder coating processes where multiple runs back to back are necessary and provides protection for 3hrs at 200C (392F).

The EasyTrack3 system can be offered with other thermal barrier options for high temperature cure processes (PTFE, Dacromet, etc) or space limited applications.

EasyTrack Insight™ Software

The EasyTrack3 temperature profiling system comes with two choices of software; standard EasyTrack Insight or EasyTrack Insight Professional.

Both software versions confirm that cure temperatures meet paint manufacturers’ specifications, make comparisons probe-to-probe, identify that the Datapaq values fall within an acceptable tolerance range and evaluate process parameter changes. With a simple click of the mouse, you can print out a profile report that will satisfy all necessary regulatory requirements.

In addition, the Professional software package unlocks advanced features of the ET3 datalogger, such as multiple run and SmartPaq operation. It also provides an enhanced analysis and reporting platform allowing.
