Example: You have a press with top and bottom heated platens, each with its own temperature controller (see Fig 1). You want to be able to set the temperature on one controller, say the top, (call it the master) and have the bottom, (the slave) adopt the same setting. The slave controller takes the signal representing temperature difference, from the two thermocouples connected back-to-back. You set its set point to 0 degrees. This controller decreases its output power for upscale readings increases it for downscale readings and will not be satisfied until it achieves its set point of zero degrees. This means that the two thermocouples therefore the two platens end up at the same temperature. Products & Services
IC bus interfaces and controllers or bus masters are interfaces between most standard parallel-bus microcontrollers or microprocessors and the serial bus.
Superplastic forming equipment produces complex shapes in a high-temperature process which elongates and deforms a metal blank.
Temperature instruments use contact or noncontact methods to measure temperature. Products include dial, digital, industrial and laboratory thermometers; temperature probes, indicators, and sensors; RTD elements and transmitters; and thermistors, thermocouples, thermopiles, and thermal switches.
Calibration standards and reference sources include any source that can provide a reference for the calibration of an instrument or comparison of a material or component.
Deaerators are used to remove dissolved, corrosive gases from boiler feed water. They heat incoming makeup water for injection into the boiler, and return the condensate to a temperature which minimizes the solubility of these gases.
