Pressure sensor for composite moulding applications
T
o support automated resin transfer (RTM) and wet moulding composite manufacturing methods Kistler Instruments has produced a novel combined pressure and temperature sensor specifically for these applications. For some years the aerospace industry has been using
composite materials to save weight without compromising strength but now the automotive industry is rapidly catching up in the quest for lower fuel consumption and emissions. Unlike the aerospace sector where a relatively few, large items can be produced by expensive, labour intensive methods, the automotive sector needs to produce large quantities of much smaller components cost effectively. The techniques used for high volume composite production demand monitoring and control similar to conventional injection moulding to ensure consistent, high quality output. With its long experience of developing systems and components for the injection moulding industry, Kistler Instruments is ideally placed to provide the process monitoring systems needed by low pressure composite moulding techniques.

SEISMIC Monitor System T
he 731-207 seismic accelerometer and SC4601 IEPE Signal Conditioner form a system for the
measurement of low level, low frequency vibrations. This system has the capability to measure micro g levels by combining a high sensitivity piezoelectric sensing element, an integral ultra-low noise amplifier and a matching low-noise amplifier/filter/power supply. Powered by an internal rechargeable Li-ion
battery, and housed in a rugged aluminium enclosure, this system is particularly suited for the measurement of low level vibrations in bridge, building, tower and dam motion studies, as well as vibration-isolation table monitoring.

Yokogawa launches CAN FD monitoring module for ScopeCorder family
portable data-acquisition and recording instruments. The new 720242 plug-in module is compatible with the DL850EV (Vehicle Edition) instrument and the new DL350 ScopeCorder fitted with the /VE option. Using a ScopeCorder together with bus monitor modules to decode data from automotive serial buses such as CAN (Controller Area Network) enables engineers to display information such as engine temperature, vehicle speed and brake pedal position as trend waveforms and compare this with the analogue data coming from the actual sensors. This enables automotive engineers to gain a thorough insight into the dynamic behaviour of the complete electromechanical system.

INSTRUMENTATION | APRIL 2018 41
okogawa Europe has introduced a new CAN FD monitoring module for its ScopeCorder family of
printer range. With its double moulded case construction, it can withstand a drop onto a hard surface from a height of 2M, plus with its covered power and USB connections, protection is offered against the ingress of moisture, dust and dirt. The RPP04 has a fast print speed of 90mm/sec and a high resolution of 8 dots/mm producing high quality text, graphics and barcodes/QR codes almost instantaneously on both standard thermal paper and label stock. A long life replaceable Li-ion battery provides 200M of continuous printing plus a 10 minute fast charging facility gives up to a 30% battery charge providing extended use in the field. The printer offers flexible communication options via a USB interface and both Bluetooth and WiFi wireless connections.

OKW’s New Smaller EVOTEC Designer Instrument Enclosures O
KW’s EVOTEC designer desktop plastic enclosures are now available in a new smaller 150 size – increasing the range to
three plan sizes. EVOTEC is designed for tough working environments. Applications include measurement and control engineering, IT, medical, laboratory and environmental technology. EVOTEC can also be wall mounted for access control. These robust enclosures feature elegant and ergonomic soft
contours that make them comfortable to use. EVOTEC is moulded from ASA+PC-FR (UL 94 V-0) for enhanced UV stability and can be specified with optional IP 65 protection. There are two versions: Version I has a flat top with a large
operating area for switches, push buttons and touch displays. Version II features a smooth sloping top inclined at 12° for desktop applications (it can be specified with or without a recess to accommodate a membrane keypad or product label). The new 150 size is available only as Version I with the flat top.
