EXTREME MEASUREMENTS T
hrough many years of experience in measurement applications across a
wide range of industry sectors, DEWESoft have built long standing relationships with their customers, driven by their belief that customer feedback and ideas are fundamental to the development of advanced measurement innovation. Answering their customers calls for easy-to-use flexible and rugged data acquisition equipment for use in extreme environments, DEWESoft has introduced the KRYPTON range of EtherCAT data acquisition modules. Rated to IP67 and with an operating
temperature range of -40 C to +85 C, KRYPTON modules are precisely engineered to operate flawlessly in extreme environments. Whether used in cold or hot conditions, exposed to dust, mud, water or snow, KRYPTON will continue to operate. With a housing milled from a solid block of aluminium and then filled with rubber they are also protected against shock and vibration to provide an extremely rugged system. KRYPTON modules can be equipped

with analogue inputs to suit any sensor, with built in signal conditioning for 1 ⁄2
⁄4 and full bridge strain gauges, load
cells, accelerometers, displacement transducers, pressure sensors, thermocouples, and many more, as well as offering digital inputs or outputs, and even analogue outputs for use in control applications. KRYPTON modules are also very
compact so that they can be placed right next to the source of your data, allowing short sensor wires to save cost and improve signal quality. Connected with a single cable for data, power and synchronisation, modules can be easily distributed up to 100m apart, or you can stack them up in blocks using their simple locking mechanism.
TO THE POINT! 14.7mm rotational speed
sensor with PWM signal
Rotational speed sensor with PWM-signal from Rheintacho complements the FE Series
W
ith the new FE PWM rotational speed sensor form the FE series,
Rheintacho presents a sensor which fulfills nearly every wish of the users. The first thing to attract attention on this sensor is the extremely small size in connection with the housing diameter and length as well as the space requirements above and below the flange. The main area of application for this
sensor is in hydraulic drives, especially the ones used in construction and agricultural equipment. From conception, the design of the sensor took highly demanding working conditions into consideration. Having this in mind, the sensor achieved the IP67 and IP6K9K ratings. This means dirt, moisture and intensive cleaning methods are no problem for the sensor.
10 The housing is made of a special brass
alloy. Due to the selection of this material and an intelligent design, the compressive strength of the measuring surface is ensured. Additionally, this sensor adds a
rotational direction signal to the rotational speed signal. The electronic design with a pulse-
width modulated signal (PWM) works with a current signal differing from the 1-channel and 2-channel version, on which the rotational direction information is transmitted through the differing pulse lengths. At the same time, this sensor also provides a signal with a constant amplitude independent from the rotational speed. This sensor excels not only by detecting rotational speed and direction, but also provides

additional diagnostic functions, e.g. downtime recognition, critical air gap and critical installation position. The Rheintacho FE series also
offers other versions of this sensor which can be installed identically: 1- channel (only rotational speed) and 2- channel (rotational speed and direction) in the shape of two phase-shifted rectangular signals.

,
with standard off the shelf PC hardware, or with the addition of a KRYPTON-CPU module you can create a standalone rugged data logging system built to withstand the same environmental conditions as the rest of the KRYPTON range. KRYPTON modules are connected
using EtherCAT protocol to the KRYPTON-CPU’s EtherCAT port or to a laptop or desktop PC via standard Ethernet hardware. In either case, the modules are automatically detected without the need to set up TCP/IP address configurations, and once connected you can enjoy the full power of DEWESoft X Data Acquisition Software which is included free of charge with every KRYPTON module. If you have a requirement to make physical or electrical measurements in an extreme environment, DEWESoft KRYPTON could be the perfect solution.
