‘4-20ma Signals’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Safety relays simplify control-system design from
Eaton Corp, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safety relays in the Eaton Moeller ESR5 range simplify the design and implementation of control systems that meet safety and reliability standards.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification from
Wilcoxon Research: "Wilcoxon Research has announced an additional intrinsically safe certification in accordance with IECEx requirements for six general-purpose accelerometers.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Freudenberg Simrit LP
- take a look at Pitch gears with intelligent shaft sealing
which says: "Simrit has developed a radial-shaft seal system featuring a leakage sensor that allows for telediagnosis of the shaft seal and automatically sends a signal when the seal's wear limit is reached. ".
Take a look also at the news release from RDP Electronics, RDP transducers give direct analogue output,
as well as Stemmer offers high-resolution image capture card from Stemmer Imaging,
and University of Manchester buys 20 NI Elvis units from National Instruments.
