Overview

The new Watchdog VIP is the answer to the corrosion professional's need for a simple, rugged, reliable, and low-cost CP rectifier remote monitor.

Units come factory configured as Ch 1 – volts, Ch 2 – amps, Ch 3– pipe to soil potential (required reference cell not included) and Ch 4– 0-50 Vdc. In addition, the units are equipped with an AC detection probe to measure the presence of AC power to the rectifier and a dry-contact digital input.

Using field-proven Watchdog lightning surge-resistant circuitry, the Watchdog VIP is the best choice for cost-effective CP rectifier monitoring on pipelines, well casings, bridge decks, and piers.
