A new, paperless, high-accuracy temperature/humidity logger with wireless and Ethernet capability and software triggered alarms is ideal for ISO/FDA audit data capture

JOFRA ATC Temperature Calibrators Enhanced

Wed, 07 Mar 2007 01:51:13 +0100

For most models the stability has been improved from + 0.02°C to + 0.01°C. The units also feature a temperature stability countdown timer which starts five minutes before the stability indicator comes on. This helps the user to know when to take readings from the sensor-under-test.

New BIMETAL Temperature Sensor Provides Local Readout and a mV or Ohm Signal, Requires no Power

Fri, 02 Mar 2007 02:21:32 +0100

The sensor's easy-to-read three-inch dial provides local temperature indication in 0-250°F and 0-500°F dial ranges, is hermetically sealed per ASME B40.3, and has field-adjustable calibration. The dial gauge has NIST traceable calibration of up to 1% of reading.

Moore Industries introduces BIMETAL Temperature Sensor with Local Readout

Thu, 01 Mar 2007 18:58:32 +0100

The BIMETAL requires no power supply at the point of measurement. It includes a rugged thermowell probe assembly that contains a Moore Industries’ RTD or thermocouple sensor, and a large analog display. Both the sensor and display are NIST traceable, and can be quickly calibrated in the field. No source of power is needed to drive the local analog readout; the thermocouple or RTD can be read via a standard transmitter, signal conditioner or analog input device.

Pacific Sensor technologies releases PST-AR-892 High temperature infrared thermometer

Sat, 24 Feb 2007 05:37:09 +0100

The Pacific Sensor technologies PST-AR-892 High temperature infrared thermometer is tri-pod mountable and can be used to data log temperature critical events and communicate back to a PC via its integrated RS232 interface.

New Sensor To Be A Boon To Astronomers

Thu, 25 Jan 2007 12:43:25 +0100

The detector, called a 'hot electron bolometer', is comprised of a small piece of superconducting niobiumnitride. A miniscule gold antenna catches the terahertz-radiation and sends it via the contacts to the small piece of niobiumnitride, which functions as an extremely sensitive thermometer...

World's First Dry Block Calibrator To Provide Fast, Accurate Calibration Down To -90°C

Sat, 16 Dec 2006 16:06:36 +0100

Ideally suited to calibration applications in the pharmaceutical,
food, food ingredients, hospital and marine industries, the ATC-125
can be used to perform fully automatic calibration routines without
the need for a PC. However the unit is also fully compatible with PC
operation and is supplied complete with JOFRACAL calibration software

Raytek expands optical resolution of IR sensor

Compact, digital IR thermometer suited for applications with difficult ambient conditions

Non-contact infrared temperature sensor

Wed, 06 Dec 2006 15:27:24 +0100

The VL can measure temperatures from -40°C to 700°C with a response time of just 180 ms. It has a narrow 10:1 field of view, and adjustable emissivity so can be configured to measure most materials. Each unit offers a choice of either 0/4 to 20 mA, 0 to 5 V or type J or K thermocouple outputs allowing them to be used with virtually all process control instrumentation.

Kiwis help change world-wide measurement standard
