When all that is needed is a simple method of airflow detection, the Dietz 103B - available from Variohm EuroSensor, offers the perfect solution. Designed to be used in both new and existing air ducts, the switch allows airflow detection between 150 – 750 metres per minute. Based around a reliable SPDT snap action micro switch and using a stainless steel air vane the simple proven mechanical design offers a cost effective alternative to more complex airflow sensors. With a moisture and fungus resistant model available it is ideal for HVAC, industrial, medical and military applications.
HARTING has introduced a new range of Hall-effect current sensors with robust design and construction that makes them ideally suited to use in harsh conditions in areas such as rail technology and renewable energy.
Installation costs can be lowered with the new wet-to-wet differential pressure transducer introduced by Boiswood. By using remote sensors, the Multi-Sense(R) 231RS from Setra Systems can significantly cut installation and materials costs, as well as shortening set-up times.
Sontay’s revolutionary SonNet wireless sensors are enabling accurate temperature control whilst cutting the time and cost of installation on projects for Suffolk–based cleanroom specialist, HiTech Controlled Environments.
Micro-Epsilon has launched a new high accuracy, non-contact capacitive displacement sensor for measuring gap widths in difficult-to-access areas or objects. The probe can be manipulated and bent around obstacles in order to measure gap widths.
With the new capaNCDT CSG sensor, electrodes are applied to the top front and back of a 20cm-long printed circuit board substrate. Using the sensor electrodes and the differential calculation method, the width of a gap can be determined very accurately whilst moving the sensor into the gap.
Hansford Sensors has launched a new triaxial accelerometer, enabling three axes to be read simultaneously. The new HS-109 Series vibration sensor comes complete with the established and proven M12 connector and is designed to be used both offline and as a permanently mounted sensor on industrial machinery.
The phrase in the above title is actually incorrect in its sequence of wording. All pH readings are supposed to be taken and accepted only when the pH sensor is clean. After all, a contaminated pH sensor may yield an incorrect reading. So one must make sure the sensor is clean before doing a calibration. Once a pH sensor is installed in the process and operating, how do you determine when
Novotechnik U.S. announces the ML Series of rotary sensors. These sensors measure angle up to 100 turns or 36,000° of mechanical travel and have a life of over 15 million turns.
Kistler, a worldwide supplier of precision sensors, systems and instrumentation for the dynamic measurement of pressure, force, torque and acceleration, has introduced the Type 9211BE miniature quartz force sensor with single-wire technology, designed for high-reliability dynamic and quasi-static mold cavity measurements of up to 3,000 bar (43,511 psi), over a range of 0 to 2,500 N, in support of demanding plastics injection molding operations.
Instrumentation specialist Impress Sensors & Systems Ltd has launched a new oil-free stainless steel welded pressure sensor for oxygen applications, where silicon oils or elastomeric seals cannot be used. The sensors offer high overpressures (typically three times the nominal pressure rating) and so are also suitable for mobile hydraulics and machine engineering, where pressure spikes or peaks are present.
Bedford, Massachusetts. 15 March, 2012 – METTLER TOLEDO Process Analytics Division announces the introduction of its 5000TOCi sensor with Intelligent Sensor Management™ (ISM). The new sensor is ideal for continuous, fast, and reliable monitoring of total organic carbon (TOC) levels in applications such as Water for Injection, reverse osmosis membranes, effectiveness of TOC destruct UV lamps, resin bed performance, organics shedding, and quality of final rinse water.
