Tests on eight temperature transmitter heads
Baxter Healthcare subject their temperature sensors to the same test regime as their products: their 'Total Confidence' now applies to Status Instruments head mounted transmitters.
The DM700 has been specifically designed to fit inside a clear polycarbonate cap, which in turn fits to a standard SCH4 enclosure.
Alternative mountings are also available to fit other standard connecting heads and for use in harsh environments, the display can be fitted to a selection of enclosures to achieve IP67 sealing.
As with all Status instrumentation, the design emphasis is on flexibility, ease of use and reliability.
The microprocessor-based DM700 uses surface mount components and is easily configured via three push button switches on the underside of the module.
An important feature of the RTD version is the ability to enter actual sensor calibration data to achieve optimum precision in the measurement results.
The 4-20 mA version can have a number of standard linearisation corrections applied, including square root, 3/2 power, 5/2 power and customer specific, where up to 19 segment straight line interpolation can be set.
A unique feature of the RTD and thermocouple versions is the built-in two-wire current sink 4-20 mA transmitter.
The transmission range can be set from the push buttons.
The DM700 is part of Status Instruments extensive range of instrumentation, sensors and data logging equipment. Request a free brochure from Status Instruments ...
