Ground-Isolated Pressure Sensor Type
6125C... |
| |
 Kistler:
The use of highly-sensitive
piezoelectric combustion pressure sensors
with built-in ground isolation can largely avoid the effects of
electrical interference. The isolation of the sensing element prevents
the generation of noise currents and allows interference-free
measurements, even if potential differences exist between the engine and
the measuring system. The new Kistler Type 6125C... is the third
generation of a
combustion pressure sensor with built-in ground
isolation. The use of a new Kistler PiezoStar crystal has made it
possible to increase the sensitivity to –37 pC/bar and the pressure
range to 300 bar. This innovative sensor ensures precise and reliable
measurement data even under noisy testing conditions. ... |

Software benefits large scale structural
analysis |
| |
 HBM
has launched version 5.0 of its catman Enterprise measurement software
for structural analysis of large-scale measurement systems since up to
20,000 channels can be acquired simultaneously. The latest version
extends the use of catman Enterprise 5.0 from aerospace applications to
include experimental stress analysis of other large mechanical
structures such as ships and vehicles. The software has been designed
for ease of use and allows users to set up measurements rapidly. The
testing of any strain gage measuring points can be automated ensuring
amplifiers are set up for maximum efficiency. Data is recorded using a
multichannel data server during measurement while the system's
client-server architecture enables several clients to be simultaneously
accessed online including real-time data visualization. Extensive
trigger functions are available that can be set in advance and include
functions such as starting a fast measurement or sending emails at
particular points during the measurement. Special online computations
for experimental structural analysis are included in the software. ... |

Kavlico Launches Family of Sealed
Industrial Pressure Sensors for Harsh Environment Applications |
| |
 Moorpark,
CA – Kavlico, a global business unit of Custom Sensors &
Technologies (CST), has launched a line of
sealed industrial pressure
sensors that incorporate a stainless steel diaphragm in an all welded
304L stainless steel housing making them well-suited for hostile
environment applications. The sensors utilize Kavlico’s oil-filled piezo-resistive
(PRT) sensing technology along with a state-of-the-art ASIC. Rugged by
design, the sensors are capable of operating with a wide array of fluids
and gases that are compatible with stainless steel. Pressure ranges are
available from 0 – 100 through 0 – 5,000 PSI absolute or sealed gage for
the models P251/P251R and 0 – 6 through 0 – 400 Bar for the models
P250/P250R. The P250/P251 operate on a 5 Vdc power supply and provide a
ratiometric 0.5 to 4.5 Vdc linear amplified output proportional to
pressure while the P250R/P251R have an internal regulator and operate on
9 to 32 Vdc while providing a regulated 5 Vdc or 10 Vdc linear amplified
output proportional to pressure. Each sensor is temperature compensated
and exhibit excellent EMI/RFI rejection capability. The high reliability
sensors have an over-pressure capability of 2X FSO (Full Scale Output)
and have been designed to operate in situations ... |

Miniature, long range
retro-reflective
sensor |
| |
 Baumer
Electric: The completely new developed Series 10
retro-reflective
sensor with its polarization filter achieves a very high range of 4 m
using a reflector measuring a mere 50 x 50 mm. The specially developed
optics are characterized by the fact that a high level of signal
reserves can be attained at even very short spaces between the sensor
and reflector. This ensures a high degree of sensor function even if the
front cover of the sensor or the reflector is dirty. The output
indicator LED which is also visible from the front is a great aid when
aligning the sensor correctly. An integrated potentiometer allows the
retro-reflective sensor to be adjusted to detect critical objects such
as semitransparent sheeting or translucent paper. The new sensor is
available as either a cable or connector version either NPN or PNP
design. For applications subject to a high degree of contamination risk,
an alarm output is also available to provide a timely failure warning. ... |

Torque about Improving Handling Accuracy |
| |
 Sensor
Technology Ltd: Dry bulk handling is following many other industrial
processes that have been redeveloped from a ‘black art’ to a highly
accurate and controlled procedure. A generation ago much of industry was
in the hands of time-served artisans who relied on their many years
experience to tweak and tease operations to ensure a good result.
Usually they were unable to explain why they made the decisions they
did, but the results generally turned out OK! While the idea of horny
handed sons of toil is all very romantic, it is hardly the stuff of
modern industry where precision has to be the watchword – where margins
and timetables are so tight that every thing must be controlled to
within very demanding tolerances. Computers have of course been crucial
to this advancement, and it is developing the ability for them to ‘see’
what is actually going on and constantly retune the process that is the
heart of the matter. “Technically we call this real time data
collection,” says Tony Ingham of Sensor Technology Ltd, one of the ... |

New DeviceNet Analyzer from Balluff,
Analysis, Monitoring and Maintenance of DeviceNet Equipment |
| |
 With
their new DeviceNet Analyzer Balluff offers an especially
powerful tool for analysis, startup, monitoring and maintenance of
DeviceNet/CANbus equipment. These tools are aimed at maintenance
personnel, integrators and expert users, in other words anyone who needs
verified information about the function status of their DeviceNet
system. Preventive maintenance is a particular focus of the DeviceNet
tester. The wiring test performed by the analyzer allows errors and
weaknesses such as incorrect cable types and lengths, short circuits,
cable breaks and defective connections to be detected already in the
installation phase. Analysis of the bus physics before or during startup
is another main area of application. Here the signal edge steepness,
signal-to-noise ratio and telegrams having poor signal quality can be
detected for each node, indicating the possible causes such as missing
or too many bus terminations, defective bus drivers, and excessively
long bus or stub lines. The result is not only assurance that
specifications are maintained, but also optimum signal quality. Later,
while the system is actually running, a comparison with previous
measurements can be performed at regular intervals ... |
