Optris Compact Series

Optris introduces new benchmarks within the area of industrial infrared thermometers regarding the size and robustness of the sensing heads.

New USB Temperature Data Logger for Cold Chain Monitoring (Transportation and Storage)

ebro Electronic GmbH, represented in South Africa by Instrotech – a Comtest Group company, has launched the EBI 300, a new data logger for temperature monitoring in transportation or during storage.

3 in 1 Hand Held Temperature Calibration

Even in this digital world of ours, most primary measurements in process plants are still analogue by nature – they only become digital down-line.  Temperature starts out as voltage derived from joining two dissimilar metals together or from a charge in resistance from metals like platinum, nickel or semiconductors or measuring infrared radiation.  Pressure, flow and force are measured by physical deformation with strain gauges (i.e. Wheatstone bridges or piezo-electric effects). There are myriad ways in which Level can be measured and most start with an analogue measurement. It’s for this reason then, that in plant maintenance, commissioning and instrumentation workshops, process calibrators remain indispensable. 

Wireless data temperature/humidity sensor

Manufactured by BeanAir, French wireless sensor networks company, the BeanDevice TH is a wireless temperature/humidity sensor for application in medical laboratories, technical building management, process monitoring, meteorology and the transport industry.

Digital pressure and temperature data logger with record function

The LEO Record data logger from Instrotech, is an autonomous battery powered instrument with digital display designed to record pressure and temperature over long periods. LEO Record (piezoresistive) as well as LEO Record Capo (capacitive) are ideal for low pressure ranges and offer high measuring accuracy, resolution and robustness as well as high data security (due to the use of a non-volatile memory).  While recording the pressure and temperature, they display the actual pressure and record the status. The pressure is measured and displayed once per second (shortest interval).

Ebro data loggers monitor temperature or humidity in cold storage and transport

Ideal for food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries’ warehouse, cold storage and transport applications, Instrotech offers the German quality, yet cost effective Ebro data loggers types EBI-20 T to record temperatures and the EBI-20 TH unit to record temperature and humidity. 

Integration of IR temperature sensors into Siemens PLC environment

The non-contact temperature measurement devices  of Optris feature advanced interface concepts which allow an easy integration within networks and automatedsystems. The following technical note highlights the setup of thermal imagers via an RS485 module as well as of online infrared thermometers via PLC using PROFIBUS DP
