Introducing Criterion 4.2
We are excited to announce the release of the latest update (4.2) to Excell Battery’s Criterion 4, the world’s most advanced battery monitoring system for downhole applications. Criterion 4 provides users with the capability to record MWD/LWD battery pack usage and the ability to analyze downhole conditions.
The Criterion 4.2 update consists of several new features and improvements, including:
- a new dashboard Layout that displays an Active Time indicator, indicating the gauge’s total active time,
- a Gauge Mismatch Notification will alert users of possible short circuits or disconnections between the gauge and the IFU upon connecting, which can help avoid potential safety hazards,
- printable status reports,
- a Memory Erase button that wipes event and data log data, but keeps historical minimum and maximum data points and scaling variables for each category,
- updated Shock Averaging from average to peak settings for both axial and radial shocks. This change will ensure that extreme events recorded are accurately reflected.
