Monitoring Overall Vibration Levels on Critical Machinery in Hazardous Areas
 
Monitoring Overall Vibration Levels on Critical Machinery in Hazardous Areas The IMI Sensors division of PCB Piezotronics (PCB®) has released Series EX64xB7x, a line of loop-powered 4-20 mA output sensors with a 1-inch NPT, 90° capped elbow conduit, to meet ATEX and CSA approval requirements for use in hazardous areas. Sensors operate from standard 24V loop power, making them directly compatible with existing PLCs, SCADA, DCS, and Plant Information (PI) systems, for continuous vibration monitoring of overall vibration levels on critical machinery in hazardous area application environments. Sensors are available with either acceleration or velocity outputs and in various amplitude ranges. Outputs of peak or RMS vibration can be selected, as well as optional temperature or raw vibration outputs. The raw vibration output provides a buffered signal that can be used with vibration data collectors to perform detailed diagnostic ...

Automatic optical inspection of SMD tapes
 
Automatic optical inspection of SMD tapesWhen was the last time you had to wind your watch? The key to time-keeping in world famous Swiss watches is most likely the tiny piece of quartz found on the watch interior. When it comes to the production of watch components, a high-quality vision system is required to inspect the large numbers of precision components. At Micro Crystal in Switzerland, the Cognex In-Sight 5401 inspects the packaging of ceramic surface-mounted devices (or SMDs for short) which is home to the all important oscillating quartz. These high-frequency mini tuning forks (32,768 vibrations a minute) ensure constant frequencies and time information in products all over the ...

IEC-Compliant High Temperature Acoustic Measurement System with TEDS for Vehicle Engine, Manifold, Exhaust Pipe and Other Hot Spots
 
IEC-Compliant High Temperature Acoustic Measurement System with TEDSThe Automotive Sensors division of PCB Piezotronics (PCB®) has announced release of the industry’s first IEC-compliant high temperature acoustic measurement system, Model 378B02, a combined prepolarized ICP® microphone and preamplifier, which allows for high temperature automotive acoustic testing to +120 °C, and eliminating the need for high-priced probe microphones. This model also incorporates TEDS technology, allowing for larger channel count testing applications, with greater calibration data storage and retrieval capability and minimized setup time. Use of traditional ICP® prepolarized microphones for reliable measurements in high temperature areas of a vehicle, including underhood, engine, manifold, exhaust pipe and other hot spots, has traditionally not been possible, due to temperature ...

Fully Compensated Mini Pressure Transmitter
 
miniaturized absolute pressure transmitters (Pisello type, series 20 P)KELLER AG, the pressure measurement technology specialist, has now introduced miniaturized absolute pressure transmitters (Pisello type, series 20 P), featuring optimized temperature compensation and measuring ranges from 10 bar to 600 bar. Keller developed the ingenious PromComp principle as many as 20 years ago, and it can now be exploited to full advantage thanks to the general miniaturization of electronics. A circuit no larger than a cent coin compensates the Pisello pressure transmitter perfectly against fluctuations in operating temperature. A temperature sensor in the PromComp divides the temperature range into fields with a width of 1.5 Kelvin each. Two values are assigned to each field in an EEPROM: one value for the zero point and another for the amplification, determined by mathematical interpolation in the calibration process. During operation, the corresponding values are ‚switched in‘ at the relevant temperatures. Temperature fluctuations of ...

New Universal Conditioning Module for inductive transducers
 
Universal Conditioning Module for inductive transducersPenny + Giles, designer and manufacturer of high precision position sensors, has launched a new Universal Conditioning Module (UCM) that provides reliable signal conditioning for a wide range of analogue inductive transducer types. The module can work with any manufacturer’s transducer and is suitable to drive 4, 5 or 6 wire differential LVDTs, ratiometric LVDTs and 3 wire inductive half bridge transducers (or RVDT equivalents). UCM has a low current requirement of less than 10mA and can be linked and synchronized with up to 50 modules in one network for multiple channel measurement systems. The UCM provides a simple 0.5 to 4.5Vdc analogue signal output, or by using additional module cards, into a variety of different voltage ranges, a current output, or digital PWM output. It normally operates from an unregulated 10 - 30Vdc supply. ...

HBM upgrades all-rounder torque flange
 
HBM all-rounder torque flange HBM’s new T40 all-rounder torque flange is suitable for many applications from stand-alone operation to expandable measuring chains. It provides consistently reliable measurement results in test benches and in process monitoring at an optimal price. A special sigma-delta converter is used to ensure reliable digital transmission of measurement values from rotor to stator. The robust design features a transmitter coil integrated in the flange to increase reliability and reduce down time. The transmission speed of 1.0 MBaud with error identification ensures insensitivity to interference without loss of data or accuracy even for applications where EMC is a critical issue. Digital balancing prevents thermal loading of the balancing element ensuring precise, absolute balancing values are available. High accuracy and stability are obtained using a ratiometric method of measurement – the reference voltage of the analog-to-digital converter is always equal to the bridge excitation voltage of the Wheatstone bridge and any drifts compensate each other. ...

New stainless steel Valuepack S-Type load cell model LCSST
 
Stainless steel S-Type load cell model LCSSTPT Ltd: The LCSST is available in 6 capacities (500kg, 1000kg, 2000kg, 3000kg, 5000kg and 7500kg) and sold in Valuepacks of 2, 6, 8 and 12 quantities. We have been waiting a long time for a standard off the shelf fully welded stainless steel S-Type. It is Ideal for use in harsh environment, its high protection is complemented by an accuracy of 0.020% combined error with 2mV/V output. The extra bonus on this model is that it is super competitive when sold as a Valuepack. A famous cost saving shown in all PT Valuepacks. The stainless steel S-Type has been a gap in our range for a number of years, one which some competitors have exploited well, as with most things, the wheel turns and now it is our turn to do some exploiting. I expect us to attack our competitors and return some fire over the coming months with this value packed load cell. ...

High Performance Triaxial Accelerometer Series for Measurement of Worker Personal Exposure to Hand-Arm Vibration
 
Triaxial Accelerometer Series for Measurement of Worker Personal Exposure to Hand-Arm VibrationThe Larson Davis division of PCB Piezotronics (PCB®) has announced the launch of a new series of high performance triaxial accelerometers, Series SEN04xF, designed expressly for taking measurements of worker personal exposure to Hand-arm Vibration (HAV). Designed with special integral low-pass filtering circuits that minimize false readings from shock and mechanical resonances, Models SEN040F (1 mV/g sensitivity) and SEN041F (10 mV/g sensitivity) are smaller, lighter and more precise than typical sensors. SEN04xF series sensors can be mounted onto a variety of mechanical mounting adapters for HAV studies; feature miniature four pin connectors; and are available with new heavy-duty cables that interface directly with the Larson Davis HVM100 Human Vibration ...
