We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Temperature Sensor",
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 Test rigs upgrade motor repair services from
Anstee Ware Group, which we summarised at the time by saying "Permanent magnet motor repair and calibration service covers all manufacturers, makes and sizes, and includes the complete overhaul of motors, gearboxes and pumps".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Sensors suit mobile applications from
Parker Hannifin: "IQAN sensors are mounted in tough stainless steel or plastic housings, complete with all signal conditioning electronics and are protected against shock, vibration and electro-magnetic interference".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Baumer Group
concerning its FlexTop versions 2211, 2221 and 2231
- take a look at Transmitters suit varied applications
which says: "FlexTop versions 2211, 2221 and 2231 allow the input to be configured for a resistance thermometer as well as for thermocouples, resistance sensors and current or voltage signals".
Take a look also at the news release from Melexis, Discriminating IR sensor takes a narrow view,
as well as Temperature sensor increases precision from Phidgets,
and Temperature sensor is approved for fire systems from Hawco.
