ADVERTORIAL TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION
High-Speed High Sensitivity Thermal Camera P
Process sensors from ifm electronic
T
he new generation of PN sensors from ifm electronic combines the tried-and-tested strengths with a
considerably increased user-friendliness and robustness. After over 20 years of successful ifm pressure sensor history, the new generation of PN sensors has been developed in response to requests from users. Ease of use is obviously paramount, so the PN series offers everything at a glance for enhanced transparency during setup and identification of machine conditions. Although the housing size has remained unchanged, the display size has been increased once again and the two switching status LEDs on the sensor head are bigger, brighter and can be clearly seen from all angles. The user can change the display to switch from red or green to an alternating indication of red or green, so switching states can be highlighted or an independent colour ‘window’ can be created. The sensor is now easier and quicker to set using the three pushbuttons. High overload protection, IP67 for all types of the series and the captive laser labelling make the new PN sensors from ifm the perfect solution even in the harshest environments.

FLIR +32 (0) 3665 5100
recise camera synchronization and triggering make FLIR Systems A6700sc series thermal camera ideal for high-speed, high sensitivity applications. Working in snapshot mode the FLIR A6700sc is able to register all pixels from a thermal event simultaneously. This is particularly important when monitoring fast moving objects where a standard thermal imaging camera would suffer from image blur. Routinely achieving a high thermal sensitivity of <20 mK, the FLIR A6700sc is able to capture the finest image details and temperature difference information.

4-20mA Vibration Transmitter Module T
he iT150 vibration transmitter performs acquisition and processing of dynamic vibration signals. The transmitter accepts vibration signals from
IEPE-type accelerometers and piezo-velocity transducers. The transmitter conditions, digitizes and processes the input signal using powerful DSP technology. The vibration measurement result is then scaled and converted to a 4-20 mA analog output. A temperature measurement result, from a dual sensor, is also available as a separate current loop output. The transmitters are factory-configured, allowing for quick and easy field deployment. There are no hardware jumpers or switches to set. User- specified parameters include: input signal type, detector type, output type, English or metric units, 4-20 mA full-scale range and measurement bandwidth.

New Battery Powered Indicators Provide Switching And Datalogging Functions
Housed in a plastic (ABS) IP67 enclosure, the instrument is also equipped with a volt free change over relay contact. The user may select relay actions of switch high, switch low and also includes deviation, with fully adjustable set point and hysteresis. The relay can be linked to switch on the process value or can be linked to battery condition if required.
The instrument displays the process value on a 6-digit LCD display and offers an additional advanced display mode allowing the user to display not only the process value, but one or two (1 – 32) scrolling character messages. This feature is further enhanced by the ability to link display messages to the alarm set point of the relay or battery condition.
The DM650 range also provides a powerful data logger function and relay state information.
Two methods of reading the log are available. The in-built USB port allows full configuration and reading of the logged data and allows the user to save to a text file for export to other programs. The NFC android interface allows contactless data transfer from the DM650 to android phones or tabs. Using the free downloadable App, the data can be graphed and or forwarded by email. The NFC interface is also capable of starting a new log with different log period and modes.
Application Example – DM650TM S
tatus Instruments have launched their brand-new DM650 battery powered product range.
• DM650TM temperature indicator accepts both Pt100 and Thermocouple temperature probes
• DM650PM pressure indicator measures pressure up to 100 bar • DM650HM humidity indicator measures temperature and humidity • DM650VI process signal indicator measures analogue signals such as voltage or mA
42 MARCH 2018 | INSTRUMENTATION
The battery powered DM650TM can be used to display the temperature of a typical pump bearing application. If the temperature exceeds a set point, the relay will trip to disable the pump. At this point the DM650/TM display will indicate the alarm condition and a pre-set message to inform maintenance of the over temperature. The log data showing how long the pump has been running and the temperatures recorded can be viewed either on a laptop or by using a NFC enabled Android device to allow wireless transfer of data.
