Low cost pressure
transmitter with compact and robust construction |
| |
The
newly developed pressure transmitter MIDAS S05 from JUMO offers a
high quality at a low price. This was reached through a consequently
cost-oriented design, the use of modern production technologies and a
maximum of automation. The completely welded measurement system made of
stainless steel is suitable for almost all media and the use under the
rawest conditions. It offers optimum safety in view of a leakage of the
process agent. The used silicon sensor itself can endure extreme burdens
in the lowest measurement range of 250 mbar and can perform millions of
pressure cycles. Especially this durability while under extreme pressure
is important for applications in the area of pump control, since here
often pressure peaks and ... |

To make learning easier: Air quality
signal ensures fresh air in the classroom |
| |
J.
Dittrich Elektronic GmbH & Co. KG: If pupils are conspicuously tired
during lessons, lack concentration or fidget around, it is due to stuffy
classroom air caused by poor ventilation or the lack of it. This has now
been confirmed by a study carried out at Bremen University under the
leadership of Dr. Gerhart Tiesler. The scientists measured the carbon
dioxide concentration during lessons in three different schools. Without
separate ventilation, the CO2 concentration in the classroom had a
detrimental effect on the pupils' work after just 20 minutes. As the CO2
content in the indoor air increased, the pupils became increasingly
inattentive and tired. CO2 values above the DIN 1946 guide value of
1,500 ppm resulted in slower processing of visual and ... |

EMX Industries Inc. Announces New Color
Management In-Line Product Expansion |
| |
EMX
Industries Inc., a manufacturer of sensors for automation, announces
the ColorMax P version color sensor, the highest resolution and fastest
RGB sensor on the market. Data Logging: In addition, the ColorMax P
version application software allows for data communication and
statistical analysis based on the standard Office Excell software.
Non-Standard Features: EMX’s new sensor comes with standard features
that are not provided standard in the industry. Unlike many other
sensors, the ColorMax has full application software with control over
the target illumination and the ability to view color without
reflection. Most color sensors have only a red and green LED, which
provide little information. Also – unlike other color sensors – the
ColorMax has no controls on the sensor so unauthorized operator cannot
change the ... |

Miniature MEMS High Amplitude 20,000 g
Shock Accelerometers for Aerospace & Defense and Extreme Test &
Measurement Applications |
| |
Depew,
NY, USA – The Aerospace & Defense division of PCB Piezotronics
(PCB®) has announced the launch of Series 3991 & 3993, a family of MEMS-based,
miniature high amplitude 20,000 g shock accelerometers, which are among
the industry’s smallest. Series 3991 & 3993 MEMS-based miniature high
amplitude shock accelerometers, available in both single axis and
triaxial configurations, represent the state-of-the-art for miniature,
high-amplitude, DC response acceleration sensors, capable of measuring
long duration transient motion, as well as responding to and surviving
extremely fast rise times, typical of a high-g shock event. Several
configurations are offered to fulfill a variety of installation
requirements, ... |

M5 Piezoresistive High-Temperature Sensor
Type 4007B… |
| |
Kistler:
The M5 piezoresistive pressure sensor, Type 4007B..., is designed for
measuring absolute pressures in engines at operating temperatures from
–40 to 200 °C. As a direct chip exposure (DCE) sensor with no protective
steel diaphragm it is directly exposed to the medium. The piezoresistive
silicon measuring element is positioned behind a shield and protected by
a coating. A special coating makes the sensor resistant to typical fuels
and lubricating oils. Its compactness allows a high degree of mounting
flexibility that always facilitates ideal positioning for measurements
in the inlet passages. In addition to its small size this design offers
excellent linearity, low hysteresis and a high natural frequency. The
optional digital temperature ... |

ROTOSCAN RS4-4M with new functions for
operation on transfer trolleys |
| |
Leuze
electronic will present its flexible multitalent for people safety with
the new function extension "Motion" for the first time at the Hanover
Trade Fair 2008. Intelligent sensors boast the ability (among others) to
perform several tasks at one time. A task can therefore generally be
completed quicker and easier – and the user saves money. The new
ROTOSCAN RS4-4M Safety Laser Scanner is a good example of this type of
function integration. The “M” in the product name stands for “Motion”,
and is there to show that, on the basis of the sound measurement of
speeds and distances, this new member of the Leuze electronic Safety
Laser Scanner family is best suited for mobile applications. Motion
Monitoring with transfer trolley operation: MotionMonitoring allows up
to 6 speed values to be monitored and detection zones ... |

Expanded Radar Level Program Chemicals
Industries |
| |
In
addition to the already existing ultrasonic, guided microwave & point
level, program, Burkert announces the release of its new 8136,
8137, & 8138 continuous non contact radar level transmitters to their
program. The addition of these new models will expand the range and
media types that can be measured with non contact radar technology.
Areas where intrinsic safety is required will also open up to Burkerts
level program with the addition of ATEX and FM approvals. Burkert can
now measure open channel flow & tank levels for a broad range of solids
& liquids with our complete level program covering 95% of all level
applications with dielectric values as low as 1.7. This level addition
will also allow tank measurement in areas where ... |
