Digital sensors designed for analyzing liquid properties
Process plants typically use a multitude of sensors, each of which is normally connected to a transmitter. Older sensor technologies use analog signals to communicate with transmitters, but more modern models employ digital technology to improve accuracy, ease calibration, simplify troubleshooting, and reduce required maintenance. Endress+Hauser Memosens technology converts the measured value to a digital […]
New incremental encoder series supports extended resolution options
CUI Devices’ Motion Group announced the introduction of a new model to its AMT incremental encoder family. Based on the existing AMT10 series package, the new AMT10E series offers 13 new resolutions not possible in the standard version, including the common 1250 PPR, 2500 PPR, and 5120 PPR resolutions. This extended version of the AMT10 series achieves this by increasing the […]
