New Capacitive Sensor Technology Allows
for Continuous and Contact-Free
Level Measurement |
| |
Sensortechnics’
CLC series uses a new contact-free
capacitive sensor technology to
continuously measure the fill level of liquids as well as granular or
pulverized materials. The miniature sensor can be easily mounted to the
outside of a container or vessel and is able to measure through almost
any non-metallic wall material. The level sensing range of the standard
device is up to 10 cm which can be enlarged in special multi-sensor
configurations. The non-invasive design, with no contact between the
sensor and the fluid, eliminates all media compatibility and sterility
issues. The device is highly flexible and the user can easily calibrate
the sensor to measure to the desired levels, media and application
set-up. The CLC series achieves a very high accuracy and reliability due
to an additional reference electrode which compensates for all changes
in ambient environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. As
an optional safety feature the sensor can be supplied with an extra
sensing pad to detect if a container is actually present or not. The CLC
sensor offers an analog voltage output as well as a digital interface.
Sensortechnics can also provide modifications of its
capacitive

Monobloc pressure transducer measures up
to 3000 bar |
| |
HBM’s
latest, compact P3IC-series of pressure transducers are ideal for
measuring static and dynamic pressures with measuring ranges from 10 to
3000 bar. The transducers feature a measuring body finished from a
continuous piece of steel with no welded seams making them highly
suitable for general industrial applications. The P3IC
pressure transducer provides excellent precision and durability and
is available in high accuracy classes from 0.1 to 0.2. Industrial class
pressure transducers in the range are available with either standard M12
connection techniques as the P3ICP version or with fixed cable in the
standard P3IC version. Compensation for the effect of residual external
temperature errors is achieved by using the integrated PT100
temperature sensor. The transducer can ... |

Inspection of bearing shell presence at Volvo |
| |
optoCONTROL
optical micrometers from Micro-Epsilon are being used during
engine production at Volvo in Sweden. The sensors of the optoCONTROL
1202 series measure the diameter of bearing caps and therefore
automatically verify whether a bearing shell is present in the cap or
not before being mounted by a robot. The bearing caps are transported on
a workpiece carrier directly under the light band of the sensor. A robot
picks up the bearing cap and lifts it so that the light band measures
approx. 3mm to the bottom edge of the bearing cap. The transmitter and
receiver of the optoCONTROL are mounted with a distance of 1,300mm
between them. The optoCONTROL 1202-100 with a light bandwidth of 100mm
is used. The emitted light band is partially covered by the bearing cap.
The size of the part is measured based on the shadowed light band. ... |

New thermo-paramagnetic oxygen transmitter works without drift in
hydrogen applications |
| |
Michell
Instruments: Hydrogen applications are known to cause significant
sensor drift in traditional oxygen analysers. The measurements in such
environments are not only false but also limited to certain hydrogen
concentrations. With the latest thermo-paramagnetic technology from
Michell applied to the sensor element of the new XTP600
oxygen
transmitter, these limitations are lifted. The special design of the
measurement cell eliminates transmitter drift and deterioration by
preventing the hydrogen molecules from diffusing into the sensor. The
new XTP600 oxygen transmitter from Michell was developed as a robust
self-contained oxygen transmitter for applications in various areas of
the process industry. The XTP600 transmitter measures oxygen content
between 0.01 and 100% utilising the latest developments in the
non-depleting thermo-paramagnetic technology. With no moving parts and
explosion proof housing, the transmitter can be directly used in harsh
industrial environments as well as hazardous areas. In applications
where fast response speed and high accuracy are essential for safety,
the XTP600 oxygen transmitter is ideal. ... |

New User Interface for CoMo MIS |
| |
Kistler:
Analysis of injection molding with the aid of cutting-edge systems sheds
light on the effect of various process parameters. The results of such
evaluations unleash the potential for optimizing part quality, process
control and cost-effectiveness. CoMo MIS Type 2829A..., the database-
and web-based system from Kistler, has become the established means of
storing, visualizing and analyzing injection molding process data. This
system now offers a new user interface. It is clearly laid out,
logically structured, intuitive to use and similar in design to the
interface of the CoMo Injection process monitoring and control system
Type 2869B3…. Numerous CoMo MIS cursor functions take the effort out of
process analysis. Pressure curves can be imported and exported to allow
comparison of the current process with, for example, processes on ... |

is tailor-made for the extremely dynamic homogenization processes. The
damped instrument is designed for a static
pressure of up to 2,500 bar.
Its high load capacity guarantees a robust and durable measuring
assembly. With the PSD-30, in combination with the diaphragm seal, a
highly functional pressure switch is available also for homogenization
processes for measuring ranges up to 600 bar. The compact instrument is
easily mounted and is simple to operate via three keys and an intuitive
menu navigation. The large LED display (digit height 9 mm) can ... |

THN - Digital thermocouple conditioner |
| |
Thanks
to its experience of sensors dedicated to Embedded Testing, Texys
International is happy to launch its digital version Thermocouple
Amplifier THN which benefits as well of the associated patent of its
Thermocouple amplifier range. The product itselfs consists of a
Miniature female thermocouple connector with embedded digital
conditioner. THN will work with any thermocouple probe terminated with a
miniature male connector. The embedded conditioner gives optimal cold
junction compensation, and delivers a high level output signal, free
from noise and interferences. Output signal is fully linear with 0.5°
max error. THN allows any thermocouple to be connected to acquisition
systems with normal copper leads, no need of the expensive compensated
wire and no need of special input module on the system. As THN
withstands 120°C as ambient temperature, it may be located near the
thermocouple probe. THN provides both analog output signal and serial
data to any computer USB port (with the Texense USB cable) ... |
