Moore Industries introduces BIMETAL Temperature Sensor with Local Readout

Submitted by nestorb on Thu, 2007-03-01 13:58.
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.
