DANISENSE CURRENT TRANSDUCERS USED AT CERN IN PARTICLE BOOSTER PSU
D
anisense, the leader in high- accuracy current transducers for
demanding applications, has announced that its current transducers have been used by teams at CERN as part of a significant upgrade program. The Danisense zero-flux DC current transducers (DCCT) are used in the design of QTRIM power supplies for the PS booster accelerator which are part of a chain of accelerators that inject the beam into the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. The upgrade, explains Miguel Cerqueira Bastos, team leader for the section at CERN
which manages high precision current measurement for power supplies, will “increase the beam energy in the PS booster accelerator from 1.4GeV to 2GeV”. Stability and linearity in the order of 10ppm as well as noise performance of under 10ppm pk-pk for a 10kHz bandwidth were required for currents of 1000A - the quality of the beam is strongly dependent on the quality of the current measurement provided by Danisense.

SOFTWARE UPDATE INDYSOFT VERSION 12 I
ndySoft, a leader in calibration and asset management software, have just announced a
new release of its software, IndySoft Version 12. IndySoft’s latest release takes the best-in-class software and makes it even better with over 200 new features and enhancements; the largest update in the company’s 20-year history.
Some highlights include:
• Automated Tech Sync – Easily transfer data between the lab and technician for offsite calibrations.
• Automated User Management of your Customer Portal (Read Only) – Portal customers can add new Users without interaction with the lab. A Pin-code system is used to automate this process. Portal customers can now request lost passwords themselves through an automated process.
•Branch Support – Branch fields to assist with Workflow/Statistics/Automation of multi- location Commercial Labs.
• Built-in Version Control System – Version Control for all customizable areas of the software: Reports, Event Configuration, Layouts, Custom Scripting. Easily track changes, document, and also roll-back to prior versions when required.

SAB CutCloud utilizes Microsoft Azure, Columbus now includes cost calculators based on actual production data. ESAB Welding & Cutting Products demonstrated its new
Columbus® III version 1.6 CAD/CAM software for mechanised cutting at EuroBLECH, which took place in Hannover, German in October. The new ESAB CutCloud 3.0 version utilises Microsoft Azure IoT and the ThingWorx® Industrial Innovation Platform from PTC, which respectively allow for on-premise, hybrid and cloud based architectures and functionality to import and visualize machine data. Columbus III version 1.6 now includes the ability to calculate offers and orders for customers based on actual production data. An easy-to-use cost calculator enables fabricators to enter cost variables, such as costs for machine time per hour, cutting process (including associated consumables), preparation, programming and materials.

NEW INTERFACES ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR LSOC AND LSOP INCLINOMETERS
N
ew interfaces are now available for Sherborne
Sensors LSOC and LSOP inclinometers including +/-5V, +/- 10V, 0-10V and 4-20mA.
The LSO is a high precision gravity referenced servo inclinometer that can be used for a wide variety of industrial and military applications. Models are available in a variety of angular ranges each with low impedance output signals. Electrical terminations are via 6-way bayonet lock connector (LSOC) or solder pins (LSOP). It is extremely robust and will withstand shocks in excess of 1500g. The design is well proven with many thousands in use throughout the world in the most demanding of applications.

COST-EFFECTIVE, HIGH-ACCURACY PXI RTD SIMULATOR MODULES FROM PICKERING INTERFACES
switching and simulation products for electronic test and verification, today launched its model 40-263 PXI RTD simulator module range that provides a cost-effective method of simulating PT100, PT500 or PT1000 RTDs (resistance temperature detectors) with high accuracy. The range supports 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 or 24 channels in one or two PXI slots with channels able to be set as short or open circuit to simulate faulty wiring to a sensor. The modules are available with resistance ranges of 40 to 900 for PT100
P
simulation, 200 to 4500 for PT500 simulation and 400 to 9000 for PT1000 simulation. All versions are suitable for simulating a temperature range of approximately -150°C to over +850°C for their given sensor type. The use of resistance value calls makes programming simple.
