We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Thermometers",
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 IR sensors produce meaningful outputs from
Omega Engineering, which we summarised at the time by saying "Rugged design coupled with the relatively small dimensions make these sensors ideally suited for a wide variety of applications".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Discriminating IR sensor takes a narrow view from
Melexis: "The 35 degree field of view of the MLX90614xAC is obtained by adding a viewing-angle-limiting metal tube to the standard TO-39 housing of the MLX90614".
In November 2007, we covered the news from HBM UK
concerning its QuantumX universal amplifier
- take a look at Universal amplifier suits all transducers
which says: "Transducers fitted with TEDS technology are automatically recognised as soon as they are connected to QuantumX".
Take a look also at the news release from Baumer Group, Thermometers handle tough jobs,
as well as Calibrators suit IR spot pyrometers from Barber InSys,
and McDonalds chooses networking technology from Echelon.
