We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Temperature Monitoring",
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 Condition monitoring cuts downtime from
Schaeffler (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "CNES' Aquilla AE Pro acoustic emission monitoring system is a fixed system that is particularly effective at slow rotational speeds from 80 to 0.25rev/min".
The day before,
we featured the news release Pressure sensor monitors nine wheels from
BERU F1 Systems: "BERU F1 Systems' motorsport experience, gleaned from rally, desert and endurance applications provided the knowledge to deliver a robust solution".
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 Kistler Instruments, Mould sensors connect via USB conditioner,
as well as IR sensor handles large temperature range from Raytek Corp,
and Thermometer improves manufacturing consistency from Raytek Corp.
