Performance vs. power dissipation - it’s one of the most delicate trade-offs for those who develop smart sensors for the emerging IoT-based application space.

Communicating with plant machinery and instruments for control and measurement is the basis of industrial automation. The simplest communications technique - the earliest to be implemented - is a current loop with a normal range of 4-20mA, employing a transmitter, a receiver and power supply.

Netherlands-based med-tech instrument innovator, Novuqare has developed a range of bag sealing machines for medical instruments that use specially modified ZEMIC miniature load cells to precisely measure sealing force.As an intrinsic part of the sterilisation process, the award winning ProSeal perfectly seals the instruments in special pouches in preparation for autoclave sterilisation.
