Galltec+Mela, a company that
offers a wide range of measurement and control instruments for humidity and
temperature, recently launched a digital R232 output for a product group of
humidity and temperature sensors in the series of Plug-and-Measure
transmitters. This means that the transmitters are now networkable and equipped
for remote monitoring via the Internet.
In this group, not only does the company offer transmitters for industrial
applications (up to 200°C
or 25 bar) but also a rod-shaped standard sensor with a sub-D jack: The PM15PS
is therefore suitable for both integration into systems and also for local
applications, e.g. for monitoring measurement data from a laptop. According to
the companys press release, for simple monitoring applications, the
measurement data sent from the transmitter by ASCII protocol can be read
directly using the HyperTerminal (part of the Windows operating system). As an alternative to that, Galltec+Mela offer the
software Visual PMU as a freeware-download for the sensors on their webpage.
With Visual PMU, both data logger and data export functions are available. The
relative humidity, dew point and temperature can be displayed.
The Plug-and-Measure series was developed to optimise the calibration of
components that is often necessary on a regular basis in production systems. The
transmitters in this product series are equipped with so-called Plug-and-Measure
Units (PMU). These factory calibrated sensor heads can be easily exchanged when
calibration or servicing is required. |
