Programmable Logic Controllers The COM-485 board allows IBM PC's to be networked over the RS-485 bus. Unlike the RS-422 bus which allows multiple receivers but only a single transmitter on the bus, the RS-485 allows multiple transmitters and receivers to communicate over a 2 wire bus allowing a "party line" network configuration. The COM-485 will allow up to 32 different driver/receiver stations to communicate at 56 kilo baud and stations can be located up to 4000 feet away from each other. The COM-485 can be set up as a COM1: or COM2: standard serial interface port, or can be set at any other base address/interrupt level combination desired by the user. Applications for the COM-485 include networking instruments, scanning and updating various use input and output devices (such as CRT's, keyboards, etc) and any other communication application that require more than one device to be simply and inexpensively networked to a personal computer.

Satisfied Customers Recently Released Products Archive Technical Reference: General GLOSSARY
Select the first letter of the desired search item. We will then display the matching terms that begin with that letter. Intrinsically safe equipment is defined as "equipment and wiring which is incapable of releasing sufficient electrical or thermal energy under normal or abnormal conditions to cause ignition of a specific hazardous atmospheric mixture in its most easily ignited concentration." (ISA-RP12.6) This is achieved by limiting the amount of power available to the electrical equipment in the hazardous area to a level below that which will ignite the gases. Nonpolarity:The carbon backbone of the linear polymer is completely sheathed by the electron cloud of fluorine atoms, much like a wire core is protected by insulation coating. This ensheathment, and the angles at which the carbon-fluorine bonds are disposed, causes the centers of electronegativity and electropositivity to be perfectly balanced across the polymer chain cross section. As a result, no net charge difference prevails. This nonpolarity of the polymer is partly responsible for its lack of chemical reactivity. Technical Reference: Temperature Related The International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) Revised Thermocouple Reference Tables Practical Guidelines for Temperature Measurement
Temperature can be measured via a diverse array of sensors. All of them infer temperature by sensing some change in a physical characteristic. Six types with which the engineer is likely to come into contact are: thermocouples, resistive temperature devices (RTDs and thermistors), infrared radiators, bimetallic devices, liquid expansion devices, and change-of-state devices. It is well to begin with a brief review of each.
Thermocouples and Thermocouple Assemblies
Introduction to Thermocouples
What is a thermocouple?
A thermocouple is a sensor for measuring temperature. It consists of two dissimilar metals, joined together at one end, which produce a small unique voltage at a given temperature. This voltage is measured and interpreted by a thermocouple thermometer.
International Thermocouple Color Codes Thermocouple Reference Junction Principles
THEORY: When accurate thermocouple measurements are required, it is common practice to reference both legs to copper lead wire at the ice point so that copper leads may be connected to the emf readout instrument. This procedure avoids the generation of thermal emfs at the terminals of the readout instrument.
Table of Total Emissivity
These tables are presented for use as a guide when making infrared temperature measurements with the OMEGASCOPE or other infrared pyrometers. The total emissivity (e) for Metals, Non-metals and Common Building Materials are given. Since the emissivity of a material will vary as a function of temperature and surface finish, the values in these tables should be used only as a guide for relative or delta measurements. The exact emissivity of a material should be determined when absolute measurements are required.
Fiber Optics
A New Approach to Monitor and Control Process Temperature
The coupling of optical fibers to infrared detectors and signal processing electronics represents the latest progress in the field of non-contact temperature measurement and control. Only recently have fiber optics become the object of widespread interest thanks mainly to their ability to carry optical information signals over long distances and around unavoidable obstructions.
Fuzzy Logic
On/off, PID, microprocessor based, Fuzzy Logic; the evolutionary changes of controls. This brief paper outlines some background of standard PID control and how the implementation of Fuzzy Logic can improve your single feedback control systems. Fuzzy Logic is a particular area of concentration in the study of Artificial Intelligence and is based on the value of that information which is neither definitely true nor false. The information which humans use in their everyday lives to base intuitive decisions and apply general rules of thumb can and should be applied to those control situations which demand them. Acquired knowledge can be a powerful weapon to combat the undesired effects of the system response.
Heat Wave
A National Problem, Heat kills by taxing the human body beyond its abilities. In a normal year, about 175 Americans succumb to the demands of summer heat. Among the large continental family of natural hazards, only the cold of winter not lightning, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods or earthquakes takes a greater toll. In the 40-year period from 1936 through 1975, nearly 20,000 people were killed in the United States by the effects of heat and solar radiation. In the disasterous heat wave of 1980, more than 1,250 people died.
Wire Insulation Identification and Application Guide Infrared Temperature Measurement Theory and Application
Author and Presenter: John Merchant, Sales Manager, Mikron Instrument Company Inc.
Abstract
Infrared thermometers for non-contact temperature measurement are highly developed sensors which have wide-spread application in industrial processing and research. This paper describes, in non-mathematical terms, the theory upon which the measurement technology is based, and how this is used to deal with the variety of application parameters which confront the intending user.
Technical Reference: Pressure, Strain & Force Related National Pipe Taper and Straight Thread Dimensions PRESSURE TRANSDUCERS - INSTALLATION AND USE Strain Gage Measurement
The most universal measuring device for the electrical measurement of mechanical quantities is the strain gage. Several types of strain gages depend on the proportional variance of electrical resistance to strain: the piezoresistive or semi-conductor gage, the carbon-resistive gage, the bonded metallic wire, and foil resistance gages.
WATERHAMMER
A COMPLEX PHENOMENON WITH A SIMPLE SOLUTION
Waterhammer is an impact load that is the most misunderstood force known to pressure transducers today. A waterhammer is created by stopping and/or starting a liquid flow suddenly. The results of a waterhammer or impulse load are devastating to a pressure sensor. The impulse load occurs suddenly, in the millisecond time frame, but the effects of it last a life time. Waterhammers occur in almost all pressure systems and usually can not be stopped without extensive time, energy and studies.
Technical Data Section Reference Technical Reference: Flow and Level Related Technical Reference: Flow and Level Related Technical Principles of Valves
GENERAL
Solenoid valves are used wherever fluid flow has to be controlled automatically. They are being used to an increasing degree in the most varied types of plants and equipment. The variety of different designs which are available enables a valve to be selected to specifically suit the application in question.
Technical Reference: Flow and Level Related Technical Reference: Flow and Level Related Technical Reference: pH & Conductivity Related / Environmental Introduction to pH
pH is a unit of measure which describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a solution. It is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The term pH is derived from "p", the mathematical symbol of the negative logarithm, and "H", the chemical symbol of Hydrogen. The formal definition of pH is the negative logarithm of the Hydrogen ion activity.
pH Control: A Magical Mystery Tour
Systems for pH control are characterized by extreme rangeability and sensitivity, and are also subject to difficulties arising from contact between measuring electrodes and hostile fluids. Case histories of representative installations show that success in implementing these control systems depends not only on assessing the complexity of the loop and selecting a control strategy but also on recognizing and avoiding pitfalls while specifying and installing instrumentation, equipment, and piping. Technical Dissolved Oxygen - The Fundamentals Introduction Dissolved oxygen (DO) is the term commonly used in liquid analytical work for the measurement of the amount of oxygen dissolved in a unit volume of water. It is an important indicator of the degree of usefulness of a sample of water for a specific application. The requirements of a given application determine the level of DO that can be tolerated.
Technical Conductivity and Resistivity Conductivity measures the ability of a solution to conduct an electric current between two electrodes. In solution, the current flows by ion transport. Therefore, with an increasing amount of ions present in the liquid, the liquid will have a higher conductivity. If the number of ions in the liquid is very small, the solution will be "resistive" to current flow. AC current is used to prevent complete ion migration to the two electrodes.
Electrode Basics
pH electrode technology hasn't changed much in the past 50 to 60 years, yet pH electrode manufacturing remains an art. The special glass body of the electrode is blown to its configuration by glass blowers. This is neither a terribly advanced nor "high tech" process but a very critical and important step in the electrode manufacturing. In fact, the thickness of the glass determines its resistance and affects its output.
The Development of the Electronic Halogen Leak Detector
For many years the most effective, and only, method for finding gas leaks of any type was the use of a soap or "bubble" solution. For substantial leaks this is still a very effective "detector" and is, in fact, the method most commonly used to this day in high pressure gas production such as compressed air, oxygen, nitrogen, etc.
Ion Selective Electrodes: Measurement Considerations
This article is designed to apply, in general, to all specific ion electrodes. Typically, the ISE (Ion Selective Electrode) that is purchased will come with its own instruction manual that pertains to that particular type of electrode. It is best to read all instructions thoroughly before using the electrode. When the ISE is received, it is advised that you open up the package immediately and check all the parts of the electrode. Most ISE's have a pre-treatment procedure that should be followed prior to operation.
Turbidity Measurement Introduction
This article defines turbidity, how it is measured, and the effects that suspended particle size, shape, distribution, and stray light have on the turbidity measurement. Information is also provided on calibration standards and the different optical configurations that are available.
Water and Wastewater Test Methods for Operators Introduction
A variety of test procedures and methods are available for use by water and wastewater operators. They run the gamut from colorimetric, titrimetric, electrometric (meter & probe), turbimetric, nephlometric, and demonstrative methods. Often, more than one of these methods can be utilized to measure a single unknown (parameter). For example chlorine residual can be measured colorimetrically, titrimetrically, or electrometrically. What is the best method for your application? First, let's define these methods, give examples of each, learn the limitations of each method, and then decide what method (test kit) (procedure) is best suited for your needs.
Technical Reference: Data Acquisition Why should I use a communication-based, or front-end, system for my data acquisition and control? A communication-based data acquisition system offers many advantages when compared to the plug-in systems. Some of these include size and expandability. Simple products, such as the P1000 Series, will accept only one input, while others, such as the OMB-TEMPSCAN and Workhorse systems can be expanded to several hundred analog inputs. What can I use if my data acquisition system will not accept the signals produced by my sensors? Signal conditioners are designed to accept specialized inputs such as thermocouple, RTD, pressure, strain, flow, pH, ac, high and low level dc - process them, and output a new signal which is compatible with a data acquisition system. Typical outputs produced by signal conditioners include, high level dc voltages (0 to 5 or 0 to 10 volts), process current (0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA). A data logger is an attractive alternative to either a recorder or data acquisition system in many applications. When compared to a recorder, data loggers have the ability to accept a greater number of input channels, with better resolution and accuracy. Also, data loggers usually have some form of on-board intelligence, which provides the user with diverse capabilities. For example, raw data can be analyzed to give flow rates, differential temperatures, and other interpreted data that otherwise would require manual analysis by the operator. IEEE-488 refers to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard number 488. This standard was first established in 1978, 13 years after Hewlett-Packard (HP) of Palo Alto, CA, began work to enable its broad range of instruments to communicate with one another and with "host" computers. At the time of its development, IEEE-488 was particularly well-suited for instrument applications when compared with the alternatives. An automatic remote dialer is a device that monitors conditions at a remote site and, if an alarm condition develops, will alert people (or data processing equipment) at other remote locations. The local conditions may be monitored by a variety of sensors to keep track of the environment, process parameters, intruders, etc. Inputs may include one or more of the following: temperature sensors, sound pickup, AC power sensors, 4-20 mAdc process signals, voltage analog signals, or dry contact closures. These inputs may be sensed on an alert basis in which an alarm condition generates an action, or a non-alert basis in which the input is monitored without any alarm limits. If an alarm condition develops, remote sites will be dialed and a warning message in English wil be trasmitted when the remote phone is picked up.

Heavy Duty Flowmeters with Stainless Steel Enclosure Heavy Duty Flowmeters with Stainless Steel Enclosure The unique FMA-900 air velocity transducer utilizes both a velocity sensor and a temperature sensor to accurately measure the air velocity (in SFPM, standard feet per minute). The built-in temperature sensor automatically corrects the flow rate for temperature variations. Both sensors are rugged glass-coated platinum resistance detectors (RTDs). The circuit heats the velocity sensor to a constant temperature differential above ambient temperature and measures the cooling effect of the air flow. This design provides excellent low velocity sensitivity and high accuracy. The FMA-900 also features negligible pressure drop. The FP1500 Series paddlewheel flow transmitters have a 4-20 mA output that can be read out on the OMEGA® DPF60 Series ratemeter/totalizer/batcher, and a simultaneous sine-wave pulse output suitable for direct hook-up to the OMEGA® DPF700 Series ratemeter/totalizer/ batcher. The compact FP1520 series paddle-wheel flow transmitter is specially designed for use in aggressive and solid-free liquids. Sapphire bearings and precision molded rotor contribute to the exceptional low-flow performance and linearity of the FP6500 insertion meter. Threaded bearing housings also allow easy field repair if the rotor or bearings become damaged. A solid-state Hall-effect sensor is used to detect the passage of the six rotor blades. This eliminates magnetic drag, and produces a square wave signal which can be sent for hundreds of feet without a transmitter, over unshielded cable. This signal interfaces with many programmable controllers and computer cards without signal conditioning. Installation fittings are standard 1-122" male NPT. A depth adjustment system allows the probe to be set for installation in a wide range of piping. The FP6500 series can be purchased with an optional display mounted on the sensor. Display will show rate and total. Totalizer will be 8-digit non-resettable with a pulse output. 4-20 mA output is also available. The OMEGA® FP7000 paddlewheel flow sensors are ideal for accurate monitoring of typical industrial water flows, hard-to-handle corrosive aqueous solutions, and high purity fluids (see "Wetted Materials" for details). The FP7000 utilizes a paddlewheel-like rotor whose motion is converted into a high-level square wave pulse output by an open collector Hall effect sensor. Pulse amplitudes from 5 to 18 V are possible, depending on input power. The FPW-15 115 Vdc converter plugs directly into a wall socket and outputs 400 mA at 15 Vdc. The DPF700 Series panel meter supplies power for the flow sensor and provides rate indication, or totalization, and batch control (when ordered with the dual relay option).

FPU1600 pumps are available with a cycle control percentage timer. Each pump includes an accessory kit package with foot valve with ceramic weight, threadless injector fitting, two spare tubes, 10' of tubing, and a low indicator (except on 1/4" tubing). The FPU500 Series peristaltic pumps from OMEGA offer exceptional simplicity, ease of use, and variable flow capability. A motor turns the pump's rollers, which squeeze fluid through precision bore tubing in a wave-like motion. The fluid does not contact the pump: only the outside wall of the tubing wall does. This makes the pumps ideal for use in sterile, corrosive, or general fluid flow operating environments. The OMEGAFLEX® FPU5-MT pump motor offers microprocessor control and a digital display, and is designed to be fully compatible with OMEGA's FPU500 pump. No mounting plate is needed, just two mounting screws. A 1/10 HP (75 W) motor provides flow rates of up to 2280 mL/minute. All major pump parts of the FPUC200 Series are precision molded of tough, corrosion resistant glass-reinforced polyester or Noryl glass-reinforced thermoplastic.

Halogen Leak Detectors The model GHH-6600 detects ultrasonic noise created by both vacuum and pressure leaks, and of any compound known or unknown. By translating the ultrasonic into both visual and audible signals, the GHH-6600 enables the operator to isolate the source of the sound and hence the point of the leak. Applications include locating compressed gas leaks, locating vacuum leaks, isolating leaks in closed systems and diagnosing problems with moving machinery or high voltage circuits. OMEGA's small displacement single station level switches are well suited for many OEM applications. Very compact, the switches are ideal for restricted or limited space. The reed switch design allows the user to select either normally open or normally closed by simply removing the retaining clip and inverting the position of the float. Smooth surfaces are easy to keep clean and resist material buildup. Materials are compatible with a wide variety of chemicals.
OMEGA's intrusive RF capacitance sensors deliver accurate and reliable liquid level detection with an FET switch, 4 or 20 mA, TTL or voltage output. RF capacitance technology provides a high level of dielectric sensitivity, including new technology, which improves resistance to coating and scaling. The alphasonic level transmitter is the low cost OEM and process solution for continuous level measurement. The transmitter is best applied in atmospheric vessels which contain non-coating or scaling type liquids including water, acid and chemical solutions. The measurement tube also serves as a built-in still well to help separate the point of measurement from any surface foam caused by process agitation. Industrial liquid examples include sulfuric acid, ultrapure water and nitric acid. The LVLK500 groundwater sensor can be incorporated with associated electronics to meet EPA requirements for out-of-tank product detection. It detects as little as 1/32" of floating hydrocarbon product on the water table. Designed for observation wells up to 25' deep, a float-type liquid level switch switches OFF when it detects a drop in the water table below the hydrocarbon sensor. In addition, a polymer strip is incorporated into the LVLK500 to also indicate the presence of hydrocarbons. The LVLK500 responds to gasoline within ten minutes. Response time for other hydrocarbons, the C5 to C16 range, takes longer. For example, response time for diesel is up to one hour. A watertight cap prevents spilled fuel from entering the well. The Model LVLK600 system combines an innovative observation well sensor (LVLK600) with a portable, hand-held monitor (LVHH6). The LVLK600 sensor meets EPA requirements for out of tank product detection by reacting to as little as 1/32" of floating hydrocarbon product on the water table. The OMEGA® LVR20 and LVR30 Series continuous liquid level sensors operate on a basic voltage divider network principle. As the float rises, a magnet in the float closes a series of reed switches in sequence which varies the tapped-off portion of the voltage divider resistor network. The LVR20 has the basic voltage divider outputthe regulated DC voltage input equals the maximum voltage output. The LVR20 has a nominal 1,200 resistance; thus, with a 10 Vdc supply, 8.3 mA of current are required. The two-wire ultrasonic level transmitter is the compact solution for non-contact continuous level measurement in process vessels, storage tanks and open channels. The loop powered device provides accurate level measurement up to 16.5 feet and is the ideal choice for more challenging coating or scaling type liquids including sodium hydroxide, wastewater, resin, wax, liquor and bleach. OMEGA's LVU-300 Series ultrasonic level sensors detect the level of most liquids and some bulk materials. Unwanted echoes, caused by mixers and other tank obstructions, are also eliminated. There is a response delay to prevent erratic reading caused by turbulent conditions in the tank. All process parameters are easily entered by push buttons housed within the unit. A unique beam guide is also incorporated to enhance the echo performance. LVU-300 Series ultrasonic level sensors can be used successfully with oils, chemicals, acids, caustics, waste water and many dry bulk materials. The LVU-700 Series solid state liquid level switch is a direct replacement for mechanical float-type liquid level devices. The switch employs proven ultrasonic technology and solid state integral electronics and provides reliable operation in virtually any liquid, regardless of viscosity. This eliminates problems of stickiness and failure rate due to finite mechanical life inherent in the mechanical float design. The combination of fully epoxy sealed electronics and ultrasonic sensing technology will provide years of maintenance-free service. The new OM-565X-AIR air velocity profiler from OMEGA offers you the air flow monitoring capabilities you need to verify processes as well as quickly identifying defective or malfunctioning equipment.

OMG-COMM8 -- Eight Port RS-232 Card for IBM or Compatibles The OMEGA RD-TEMP datalogger is low cost and
easy to operate. It allows monitoring of temperatures
in applications previously restricted due to space or
cost requirements. The RD-TEMP can store up to
1800 measurements as well as start time, interval,and
an optional text block to describe the measurement.
The measurement duration can be adjusted to 31
settings between 15 minutes and 360 days, allowing
intervals from 0.5 seconds to 4.8 hours. COLLECT is a remarkable TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) program that collects RS-232 data, modifies the data and then sends it to the keyboard buffer without affecting normal keyboard functions. The foreground application program accepts the data as if it was manually entered from the keyboard. All of this takes place transparently in the background without interfering with the foreground program.

Leading manufacturer of process measurement and control products for the scientific, municipal and industrial markets including temperature, pressure, strain and force, flow and level, pH and conductivity/environmental, data acquisition and recording, and electric heaters. Because the temperature and humidity are significantly affected by ambient air introduced when the stock room doors are open, a monitoring unit was needed that would be able to record the number of times the doors were opened as well as keep track of the internal temperature and humidity. OMEGA Solution
OMEGA's temperature and custom engineering departments worked together in designing a portable unit to contain six of each of the following: temperature controllers, rtd input jacks, analog output terminal screws, input power cord receptacles, output power jacks and finned heat sinks the solid state relays. The enclosure also features louvered vents on the top to help dissipate internal heat buildup. All of these components were designed into a rugged steel enclosure within the customers space requirements. This pre-wired ready to use system can be carried into the remote area and all six heaters can now be controlled and monitored from one central location.
OMEGA Solution
In conjunction with our customer, our local sales office within Europe, OMEGA USA's temperature application, custom engineering, design, manufacturing, and production teams, OMEGA developed a modified connector which covered all parameters. The new connector provides better mechanical separation of the thermocouple lead wires, higher ambient temperature rating up to 260┬░C, and an internal design which allows faster thermocouple wire insertion.
This new OMEGA HMP series connector is now in stock!
OMEGA Solution
OMEGA proposed a customized non-contact infrared system solution which incorporated a specialized installation technique that allowed the temperature to be measured via an infrared sensor mounted so that it "looks" into the open end of a pipe within the molten aluminum container. The sensor is wired to compatible OMEGA instrument system which now controls the entire molten aluminum bath.
The unique 88000 series surface/insertion probes feature
a unique replaceable element design which provides
fast, accurate temperature measurements for many
specialized applications. Available in thermocouple
calibrations K and E, these probes are all supplied with
1' retractable cable and SMP type subminiature
connector, for fast, easy connections.

OMEGAΓÇÖs Model OM-565 six-channel, battery-powered
temperature profiler can record temperature, while
withstanding very high or low temperatures. It is ideally
suited for temperature profiling of conveyorized processes
or where wiring and cabling is difficult, such as ovens,
wave soldering, and in-line cleaning operations. It is also
ideal for monitoring the temperature of static objects that
can collect up to 5460 data points at intervals of hours,
minutes, seconds, or tenths of a second, with the start of
data collection delayed by a time or a threshold value.
The OM-565 gets its power from a detachable
rechargeable battery power pack. Teflon FEP Formulation
Eg is very similar to PFA tubing
in flexibility an appearance. The major difference is the service temperature
range: -100 ┬░F to 400 ┬░F. Leading manufacturer of process measurement and control products for the scientific, municipal and industrial markets including temperature, pressure, strain and force, flow and level, pH and conductivity/environmental, data acquisition and recording, and electric heaters. Teflon PFA Formulation
PFA tubing is a flexible Teflon tubing with an almost transparent appearance. Unlike pipe, PFA tubing can be extruded in very long, continuous lengths, thus allowing for fewer connections. PFA tubing from OMEGA is manufactured using the highest grade resins, which provide outstanding physical- and chemical-stress crack resistance and the greatest flex-life. Like pipe, PFA tubing has excellent chemical resistance properties and can be used in temperatures ranging from -320┬░F to 500┬░F. Teflon PFA Formulation Metric Diameters

Like pipe, PFA tubing has excellent chemical resistance properties and can be used in temperatures ranging from -320┬░F to 500┬░F. Teflon PTFE Formulation
PTFE tubing is the most flexible of the three Teflon tubings. This product handles temperatures ranging from -110┬░F to 500┬░F continuous service. It is translucent milky-white to white in appearance, depending upon the type of PTFE resin used in manufacturing. Batch process manufacturing limits lengths, depending upon the size of the tubing. Omega's TYRP braid reinforced PVC tubing is designed
for significantly higher working pressures than standard
vinyl or polyurethane tubing. With a durometer of 65,
TYRP reinforced tubing is substantially more flexible than
other reinforced tubing. This extra flexibility makes it
easier to bend the tube and allows tighter compression of
Omega's TYVYV thick wall PVC tubing combines the clarity, flexibility, and ease-of-use of standard vinyl tubing with the additional ability to handle full vacuum temperatures up to 140┬░F. In addition, TYVYV tubing handles somewhat higher operating pressures than our standard PVC tubing with an equivalent inside diameter. OMEGAΓÇÖs LP801 Series linear potentiometers can be used to measure linear position or displacement up to 48ΓÇ¥ in a wide variety of manufacturing and process equipment. These units feature front and rear bearings, anodized extruded aluminum housing, stainless steel shaft and precious metal wipers and contacts for long trouble-free life in harsh factory environments. Based on a conductive plastic film element the LP801 provides high resolution, absolute position measurement without external signal conditioners. Polypropylene Tubing Viton Flexible Tubing
Viton tubing offers a superb chemical resistance to a broad range of materials with the flexibility of rubber. Under static operating conditions, Viton has been tested at up to 500┬░F for up to 1,000 hours, and at up to 400┬░F for up to one year. At these high operating temperatures, fluid pressure must be kept at a bare minimum field testing must be performed to determine the maximum pressure rating of Viton tubing in your application. Unreinforced Polyurethane Tubing
OmegaÕs Polyurethane tubing is available in two different formulations: TYUS polyester and TYUTH polyether. TYUS polyester tubing is extremely durable, resisting both abrasion and flex fatigue. It remains flexible and transparent even at low temperatures. TYUS polyester tubing is highly resistant to aliphatic hydrocarbons and petroleum products; however, it is NOT recommended for use with water-based solutions. OMEGAFLEX® latex tubing features superior flexibility and elasticity, maintaining its shape memory even after repeated stretching. No coagulants or fillers are added to the tubing, which minimizes migration into your fluid. This natural latex tubing has 0.87% trace sulphur. Nylon 11 Tubing
This formulation for flexible premium tubing is the standard for both general industrial and automotive applications. Its broad temperature range -51┬░C to 93┬░C (-60┬░F to 200┬░F) continuous combines with light weight, dimensional stability, chemical resistance and flexibility. Vinyl Tubing
Vinyl tubing is a clear flexible tubing providing an economical means of fluid transfer in a variety of applications. Intermittent exposure to hydrocarbons, such as gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, etc. will cause premature hardening and failure of the tubing.
The OMB-CHARTSCAN-1400 is a next-generation recorder that combines the ease-of-use common in paper-based strip-chart recorders with the advanced features of PC-based data acquisition systems. The CHARTSCANÕs convenient BNC, safety jack, subminiature plug, and screw terminal connectors make signal connection easier than other data recorders or loggers.
