We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Signal Conditioners",
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 Handbook is full of information on acquisition from
Omega Engineering, which we summarised at the time by saying "'The data acquisition handbook and encyclopaedia' contains over 4000 data acquisition and recording products on over 1200 full-colour pages".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Accelerometer operates in high temperatures from
Endevco: "The model 67 uses an Endevco Piezite Type P-8 crystal element operating in the annular shear mode to achieve low base strain sensitivity and excellent output stability over time".
In September 2007, we covered the news from Schmitt Europe
concerning its AR700 laser distance gauge
- take a look at Laser distance gauge provides fast results
which says: "The AR700 is designed to bring faster and more accurate measuring to applications in road profiling, tyre and rubber manufacturing, semiconductor manufacturing and general R and D".
Take a look also at the news release from Inertial Aerosystems UK, Tilt sensors offer large sensitivity range,
as well as Signal conditioning modules reduce signal wiring from Wago Corp,
and Linear position sensors tolerate radioactivity from Macro Sensors.
