Degrading of Building Materials by the Weather

From CAS DataLoggers

An on-site weather station was required in a study of the effects of the weather on building materials. Long term monitoring is required to determine how rapidly and in what way degradation occurs.

Products & Services
Temperature Indicators
Temperature indicators are designed for temperature monitoring and analysis. These devices either come equipped with an integral sensor, or require sensor input.
Thermocouple Temperature Transmitters
Thermocouple temperature transmitters convert the small millivolt output of a thermocouple to a current signal (typically 4-20 mADC) that is immune to noise and voltage drops over a long distance.
RTD Temperature Probes
RTD (resistive thermal device) temperature probes are types of thermal resistors which measure temperature as a function of resistance.
Temperature Probes
Temperature probes are devices used to sense and measure temperature. Probe technology options include thermocouple, RTD, thermistor, and solid state types.
