T&M and Monitoring

Endevco has announced publication of its new 2008 Dynamic Test Handbook. This handy volume provides a convenient and complete reference for a wide range of commonly used data to assist in effective and efficient testing operations.

Adept Scientific is pleased to announce the addition of United Electronic Industries’ UEISIM to their range of PC/Ethernet data acquisition and control systems products.

Manufacturers can take advantage of a new interactive CD from Clare Instruments which provides solutions for resolving electrical safety and compliance testing problems during the production process.

Rotameters or variable area flow meters operate on the principle that the variation in area of flow stream required to produce a constant pressure differential is proportional to the flow rate. The flowing fluid enters the bottom of the meter, passes upward through a variable area metering tube, and around the float, exiting at the top. The flow rate is read by noting the position of the float against the calibrated scale etched on the tube.

FlowLine Inc from California offers an advanced family of level measurement and control solutions for bulk storage, tanks, process vessels and waste sump applications. FlowLine’s extensive portfolio encompasses a range of alternative level technologies including ultrasonic, capacitance, optical, radar, buoyancy and vibration, providing level control options for diverse applications, fluid types and process conditions. In particular, FlowLine is a recognised leader in non-contact ultrasonic level sensors, offering reliable and cost effective solutions for level measurement in challenging environments such as chemicals, waste and ultra pure liquids.

Test instrument manufacturer Seaward Electronic Ltd. has introduced a new checkbox to verify the in-service performance of portable appliance testers.

Creaform has once again pushed the limits of technology and launches today the second version of VxScan, its proprietary data acquisition software, which features numerous improvements and additional functionalities and remains the unique platform for all of the Handyscan 3D line of scanners.

Fluke has introduced the Fluke 566 and Fluke 568 Thermometers, which feature advanced infrared (IR) temperature measurement functionality, a menu-based user interface and a graphical display to enable users to take even complex measurements quickly and easily and from greater distances. Both rugged, handheld thermometers combine contact and non-contact temperature measurement capability in one single, easy-to-use tool, providing a total temperature measurement solution for industrial, electrical and maintenance professionals.

SKF has launched a dual laser infrared thermometer, which makes it simple to test the temperature of objects quickly and accurately. Called the TMTL 2400K, the device can be used either as a non contact thermometer, using the in-built infrared detector, or a contact thermometer, using a compatible probe, enabling the temperature of objects to be measured in hot, hazardous or hard to reach areas, without risking the safety of maintenance personnel.

A new online web demonstration features the HazardWatch™ Integrated Fire & Gas Detection System from General Monitors, which sets the industry standard for highly intelligent safety monitoring solutions designed to help process and plant engineers protect their operations, equipment and staff from fire and combustible gases.
