CD-ROM covers process control instrumentation
Panametrics has introduced a CD-ROM detailing its complete Process Control Instrumentation Division product range, including product applications and international office details.
This general-purpose RH sensor is said to offer OEMs high performance at a fraction of the cost of similar devices.
Its compact T0-18 configuration opens up the widest range of equipment applications.
Relative humidity is measured in the range of 0 to 100%, with a linearity and hysteresis of +/-1% RH, and a typical response time of less than 60s for 90% of total range.
Unaffected by water condensate and immune to most reagent vapours, the sensor can handle temperatures to 180C.
The MiniCap 2 is ideally suited to such applications as HVAC/energy management, control systems, humidistats and RH measurement instrumentation.
