ADVERTORIAL u TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION Heraeus High Temperature Micro Platinum Heater Accurate localised heating from ATC Semitec
• Temperature range -25°C to +800°C • Short-term up to +850°C Ideal for heating liquids, gases and solids that require quick, highly accurate localised heating.
The Heraeus H540S micro platinum heater, available from ATC Semitec, consists of a Pt-thin-film structure on a thin ceramic substrate with platinum lead wires. This miniature heating element can be used over a wide temperature range from -25°C to +800°C and offers excellent long-term stability and precision. Only 5.2 x 3.9 x 1.0mm thick with 6mm long lead-wires, the H540S micro-heater is suitable for applications in industrial
process technology, bio-medical equipment, personal care, white goods and the automotive sector. They can provide precise controlled heating in medical sample heating in analytical and laboratory equipment or add

achieve the ultimate in product quality. The sensor has to be able to detect the changes with sufficient sensitivity, yet be robust enough for regular wash-downs and general industrial abuse.

eal time process control for food manufacture has come a significant step closer, thanks to pioneering research work at
University College Dublin into viscosity measurement techniques for characterising the flow and mixability of highly non- Newtonian fluids. At the heart of the researchers' experiments is the TorqSense transducer made by Sensor Technology in Oxon, which monitors the constantly changing flow characteristics of materials as diverse as tomato ketchup, chocolate, pasta sauce and chicken tikka massala as they are mixed. This is done by monitoring the torque on the mixer's shaft,
Interface load cells in medical applications I
nterface Force supplies instrumentation for the most demanding automotive and
motorsport test applications. The company is a premier supplier of load cells for engine and suspension dynamometers and multi post-test rigs, including the Interface SSM, S-beam and 1200 low profile series. It also offers specialist load cells like its BLP pedal load cell designed for force
measurement on control pedals. The company’s wide selection of reaction and rotary torque transducers can be used in a variety of applications. Its torque sensors designs range from conventional shaft type to through-hole, flange designs and even wireless, contactless designs such as the Axial TQ. Interface’s XSensor hi-speed impact system is giving engineers new insight into the dynamics of high-speed impacts. It allows engineers to visualise pressure distribution of whiplash, airbag, seatbelt and head restraints on the human body. The company can also help with the measurement of many engine, gearbox, exhaust, hydraulic and fuel pressure applications with DDM’s range of sensors. .
