The DS703 FC high-definition diagnostic videoscope with Fluke Connect has been added to Conrad Business Supplies’ portfolio of test and measurement equipment. Designed for harsh industrial environments, the DS703 FC features a 17.8cm (7-inch) capacitive touchscreen.

The latest IDEAL Networks LanTEK® III cable certifier has received a new, free software update which has been approved by Belden for testing 4K UHD media cabling. The latest software release, version 3.215, now includes special test limits for Belden 2183 4K UHD Media Cabling to support installers as the demand to certify cable which supports 4K video continues to grow.  

The BenchVue Lab Management and Control solution is a software tool from Keysight Technologies designed to simplify the configuration, monitoring and tracking of lab instruments, while optimising student learning. Practical hands-on learning using real, industry-standard bench instruments is one of the most valuable experiences universities and teaching institutes offer engineering students hoping to thrive in the workplace after graduation.

The Leica DISTO X4, X4 laser rangefinders from Leica Geosystems have been added to the Conrad Business Supplies portfolio adding to its assortment of measurement tools. The robust devices of the DISTO series enables not only simple distance, area and volume measurements but also the measurement of complex objects.

Availability of the Fluke 710 mA Loop Valve Tester has been announced by RS Components. This is an easy-to-use tool that greatly simplifies the testing of control valves, enabling the quick measurement of critical valve readings using a simple two-wire connection.

A cavitation detection system has been unveiled by Yokogawa IA. It will be available from January 31. By detecting cavitation, quantifying information, and displaying the data in real time, this system provides an early indication of conditions that can result in a degradation in pump performance.

Two motor-drive analysers from test and measurement maker Fluke that help safely locate and troubleshoot typical problems on inverter type motor-drive systems are available at RS Components. The MDA-510 and MDA-550 help engineers by saving time and enabling the quick set-up of complex measurements, and the simplification of the troubleshooting process via guided test set-ups and automated drive measurements.

The Elesa range of standard hydraulic components enable equipment manufacturers to readily complete their production cycle to the highest quality and with efficiency, at competitive price points. Ex-stock HCX column level indicators and HGFT screw-in window level indicators provide simple solutions to monitoring of oil and other fluids including oil additives and chemicals.

Elesa’s MPI-15 magnetic measuring system allows precise alignment and positioning of workpieces so reducing time of machinery processes to a minimum, saving costs and speeding the whole production cycle. The MPI-15 combined with magnetic band is easy to install and features an easy to read digital display enabling operators to accurately read out linear or angular displacements.

The DAQ970A Data Acquisition System from Keysight which offers engineers a more efficient way to fully characterise their product and deploy test solutions in just a few days is available at Farnell element14. The product, designed for engineers in R&D design verification and manufacturing, provides a path to design reliability without second guessing the measurements, learning or using complex programming languages or hiring new software engineers.
