PRESSURE + LEVEL MEASUREMENT

ROUND UP

Continuous level measurement with analogue output and IO-link The LR9020 reliably resists harsh environmental conditions or high- pressure cleaning. Its small design allows installation in restricted spaces. The digital IO-Link communication prevents disturbance in measured value transfer.The rods can be shortened, or changed, so the LR reduces stock-keeping and simplifies replacement. Even before installation the user can set the sensor parameters via IO-Link on the PC.The data record of parameter setting can be copied to other sensors, e.g. for installations of identical design.The level transmitter has an operating voltage of 18 to 30 Vdc and an ambient temperature of 0…60°C. Applications for LR9020 include aqueous media, coolants, cleaning agents, oils. Enquiries: Alwyn Skelton.Tel: +27 (0) 12 450 0400 or email info.za@ifm.com

Resistance thermometers and thermocouples calibrated at the same time WIKA ’s new CTR3000 multi-functional precision thermometer offers a unique ‘two-in-one’ solution: It can be used to calibrate resistance ther- mometers and also thermocouples. With up to 44 channels for different sensor types and therefore a wide temperature range, as well as with an accuracy of up to 0,005 K, the CTR3000 is designed for high operational flexibility. A new, intuitive user interface makes all information visible at a glance via eight menu items. Automatic scanning of the channels, the graphical representation with simultaneous calibration, the export of the logged data to Excel and software updates via a USB stick support its time-efficient handling.The new CTR3000 has been developed as a joint- venture project by Automatic Systems Laboratories (ASL) andWIKA and will be sold under the WIKA label. The British company ASL is a market leader in precision instruments for temperature measurement. Since 2013 it has been part of theWIKA Group.
