The Flexi-Mux is a multiplexer that allows a single data logger to sequentially connect to numerous sensors. It can multiplex up to 20 sensor lines across 5 groups of 4 lines or 10 groups of 2 lines. The compact vertical design takes up minimal space in a control box to allow for multiple units. By cascading units together, theoretically any number of sensor channels can connect to a data logger. It provides quick wiring via detachable screw terminals and protects sensor lines from transient surges.
