Accurate machinery alignment in rough field conditions

The newly launched sensALIGN is an intelligent sensor system for machinery alignment. By incorporating the patented intelligent-sensor technology from a partner into its own platform, this company offers 100% accuracy (0% accuracy loss), guaranteed, it says. The seneALIGN unit automatically…

Monitor and control pH and temperature with this device

The TX-3000 pH/mV Transmitter monitors changes in process fluids, displaying pH or oxidation-reduction potential (ORP; measured in mV), and temperatures for more accurate process control in water, chemical, electronics, food production, environmental and wastewater applications. The line-powered TX-3000 can be…

Better accuracy offered by this level-measurement system

Based on the patented StrainCell sensor technology, the new Solo-L level-measurement system is said to improve on existing silo-level-measurement devices by eliminating problems caused by material density, angle of repose, wave reflection and dust clouds common to other technologies. The…

This display unit merges an HMI with a PLC

The Perspecto CP television merges a human-machine interface (HMI) with a programmable logic controller (PLC) in one package. Traditional configurations utilize separate PLC hardware and software, and HMI hardware and software, the company says, but the Perspecto CP is a…

Accurately monitor relative humidity with this probe

The PCMini52 relative humidity (RH) and temperature probe utilizes a thin-film capacitive sensor, which is designed for extremely fast response and long-term stability for repeatable measurements. The design provides a large capacitive response to small changes in humidity that, in…

Control safe O2 levels in reactor head space with this sensor

The XTP601 oxygen sensor is ideal for accurately monitoring the O2 levels in a reactor, and enabling the N2-purge to be shut down when the O2 level is safe. Based on thermo-paramagnetic sensor technology, the XTP601 determines the O2 level…
