A-10 pressure transmitter combines
highest quality and reliability |
| |
 Excellent
quality and reliability at a competitive price are outstanding
attributes setting the new A-10 pressure transmitter from WIKA
apart. Manufactured by using the latest production technologies, the
A-10 satisfies even the highest quality demands. Foundation for success:
For the A-10, representing a new generation of pressure transmitters,
WIKA has developed a future-orientated, "intelligent" production line.
Hardly any soldered joints are needed, and faults are avoided from the
outset by automatic monitoring of each single production step. In
addition, only five components and nine production steps are required to
manufacture this new pressure transmitter. The results of extensive
field tests, carried out at selected customers' sites over a period of
many months, and of several hundred further individual tests have
convincingly proven the A-10’s capabilities for use under real operating
conditions. WIKA has developed the A-10 for general industrial
applications. ... |

SCHMIDT® flow-sensor now with Status
indicator |
| |
 SCHMIDT
Technology GmbH has equipped the flow sensor SS 20.60 and SS 25.60
with a new helpful function. Information about the current flow velocity
and the sensors status are displayed directly on the sensor. Four LEDs
signalize with green light the metered value relative to the Measuring
range. Therefore the range was divided into four sections (20%, 50%, 80%
und 100%). Two LEDs change their colour to orange when the flow gets out
of the Measuring range. At a faulty function the LEDs are blinking in
red colour. The operator can identify directly, if the power supply
voltage or the temperature range is below or above the limits or if the
sensor is defect. The sensors have proved their capability for measuring
flow velocity and air volume respectively in compressed air system or
process technology at flow velocities up to 200 m/s and temperatures as
high as 350 °C. ... |

 EMX
Industries Inc., a manufacturer of sensors for automation, announces
the CMYX color mark sensor, the fastest color mark sensor on the market
by at least 35 percent. The new sensor boasts the industry’s highest
resolution, and it is the only color mark sensor able to reliably detect
color marks smaller than 2mm. Color mark sensors detect registration
marks and other features used in a wide variety of printing and
packaging applications. The CMYX’s operating speed of 25 microseconds
enables it to detect 0.5 mm PHARMA-CODE packaging control marks at
speeds of 2000 ft/min. and standard size color marks at speeds exceeding
10,000 ft/min. allowing for increased production speeds. In addition,
special high-contrast sensitivity enables reliable detection of faint
marks — even 10 percent yellow on a glossy white background. High
Resolution at High Speed: Operating at 40 kHz with a round light spot of
less than 0.5 mm, the CMYX color mark sensor achieves the highest
resolution in the industry. ... |
