We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Electromagnetic Interference",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Pressure sensor promises performance and economy from
Futek Advanced Sensor Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "OEM pressure sensor is especially suited to applications subject to severe mechanical shock, vibration and electromagnetic interference".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Automation saves Eur45,000 at coating factories from
Schaeffler (UK): "Collini Wien of Austria is making savings of around Eur15,000 euros per year after installing FAG Motion Guard Champion automatic lubricators from FAG Industrial Services".
In December 2007, we covered the news from LumaSense Technologies
concerning its Luxtron 800 series
- take a look at Temperature monitoring without interference
which says: "Industrial-grade fibre-optic temperature monitoring systems are configurable with either one or two measurement channels at 4 or 10Hz measurement speeds".
Take a look also at the news release from Nexans, Resignalling project counts on specialised cable,
as well as Torque sensor provides extruder data from Sensor Technology,
and Nickel aids green projects from Hart Coating Technology.
