‘Locking Devices’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Thermometers feature advanced signal processing from
Ircon, which we summarised at the time by saying "Ircon has introduced the Modline 6 Series of infrared thermometers with advanced signal processing and background-reflected energy compensation capabilities. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Sherborne announces MEMS inclinometers from
Sherborne Sensors: "Sherborne Sensors has announced the launch of the T700 series, a high-precision range of compact, DC-operated solid-state MEMS inclinometers. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from European Safety Systems
- take a look at E2S adds trumpet horns to range of warning devices
which says: "The Spectra range of industrial warning devices from European Safety Systems (E2S) now includes 100dB and 110dB trumpet horns designed to provide an effective penetrating low-frequency buzzer sound.".
Take a look also at the news release from IFM Electronic, IFM releases safety monitors for AS-interface,
as well as Namur approves Wirelesshart for process uses from Hart Communication Foundation,
and Rittal's PSM measures power consumption per socket from Rittal.
