DC current transducers for bipolar measurement of high DC currents
Complementing LEM’s range of products for advanced battery management applications, the DH family of DC current transducers offers precise measurement of bipolar currents up to 2000A. Measuring only 174 x 86 x 54.1 mm, these compact split-core transducers combine Hall-effect technology and signal conditioning in a single housing with a large rectangular sensing aperture for non-contact measurement (supporting up to 104 x 40 mm busbars or 40 m...
Current transducer accurately measures up to 4000A
LEM has introduced the ITL 4000-S current transducer for non-invasive measurement of currents up to 4000ARMS in conductors of up to 268mm diameter. The new transducer allows the isolated measurement of AC, DC and pulsed currents, up to three times the nominal value for peak measurement at frequencies up to 50kHz (+/-1dB).
LEM’s CTSR current transducers combine safety and high performance in solar installations
LEM has introduced the CTSR family of current transducers for use in a range of safety-critical applications including solar installations.

Sealed linear transducer for rugged industrial applications
Penny + Giles has launched a contactless sealed linear transducer that provides reliable, fit-and-forget position sensing for rugged industrial applications. The robust SLT190 is aimed primarily at the off-highway (construction, agriculture) and utility vehicle markets and is suitable for the harsh conditions of steering position applications, lift mechanisms, and hydro-pneumatic active suspension systems. This transducer has a short body to stro...
Servo research points the way to improved dynamics
Research at the University of Manchester has demonstrated servo systems with vastly improved dynamics with the most challenging of loads. The key to the increased performance is a torque transducer from Sensor Technology employing Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) techniques to deliver high-bandwidth, non-contact solution.
Torque measurement
High performance torque measurement is helping to improve the energy efficiency of domestic washing machines, enabling consumers to make greener purchase decisions. The Eco Rating stickers that provide potential buyers with a clear assessment of white goods' environmental performance now play a major role in retail sales. Manufactures want to achieve the best classification possible, so are redesigning their machines to reduce power consumption.
INTELLIGENT EXTRUDER PLANS ITS OWN GROWTH
A bench top extruder developed at Bradford University is able to collect data about its own operation and to determine a wide range of characteristics of the material with which it is working.
