Panel mount display/controller from Solartron
The new SI1000 series panel mount display/controllers from Solartron Metrology have a compact design and are inexpensive and simple to use. Designed for use with the company's displacement and gauging transducers, they are ideal for a wide range of laboratory and industrial linear position monitoring and control applications.
Load cells from RDP can be used in both tension and compression
Although commonly used for tension measurement, the RLT series load cells from RDP Electronics Ltd can also be used for compression measurement. Based on the well-proven S-beam configuration load is applied to the RLT transducer via the threads located on the top and bottom surfaces of the device to allow it to flex.
Accurate means of measuring liquid level using LVDTs
Although there are various options for measuring liquid level in a tank, RDP Electronics Ltd are able to provide an LVDT based solution that can often be used where other methods are inappropriate. Typically the LVDT is fitted with a weighted float and installed with the transducer directed vertically downward towards the liquid surface. This approach is often suitable where the liquid inside may form a foam on top, precluding the use of optical ...
RDP wet/wet pressure differential transducers designed for high line pressure
For high line pressure applications where it is important to measure the differential pressure between two pressure ports, RDP Electronics Ltd has a specialist range of transducers.
Robust RDP transducers monitor sluice gate position
Sluices installed on rivers rely on a gate operating system of cylinders, valves and pumps that calls for components to provide reliability in wet environments. Transducers to monitor position are typically fitted to hydraulic cylinders used to actuate the sluice gate and therefore need to be suitable for submersed operation.
New range of combination pressure and temperature transducers from RDP
New from RDP Electronics is a range of combined pressure and temperature sensors, the RST0170 Series, that will prove beneficial in a number of industrial and HVAC measurement applications.
Affordable non-contact torque transducer avoids need for slip-rings
For applications where measurements are to be taken from a rotating shaft without resorting to the use of slip rings, then the new Model 1700 Series transducers from RDP Electronics provide a cost effective solution.
