High Speed & High Accuracy Temperature System
If there is a requirement for a temperature measurement with some unusual parameters, there may be a solution that will help solve these issues. There might be occasions when there is a requirement for a fast response temperature measurement. Or there might be a requirement for trying to get an accurate temperature measurement with a high resolution temperature reading. Or there might be a requirement for measuring a fast temperature transition. Or there might be a requirement for getting a quick temperature reading without waiting for a normal thermometer to settle down. Applied Technologies, Inc. has a probe that can perform unusual requirements, for air or a good deal of the gases, when making temperature measurements. It can provide a high speed temperature, a high resolution temperature, a fast temperature measurement, and a highly accurate temperature.
The electronics are all contained within the probe bar, and the transducers are completely sealed. This allows it to be operated as a tower mounted instrument, capable of withstanding hostile environmental conditions. The transducer operation and sonic functions, as well as all computation and transmission of data are under microprocessor control.
Data from the Sonic Anemometer/Thermometer are digital in nature. The output is RS-232C compatible in a UART asynchronous format. It represents the data in ASCII decimal numbers, and may be connected directly to a computer, transmitted to any digital recording device, or the format is such that it can also be read directly on a terminal. The temperature information is the sonic temperature of the measured winds and is calculated from the vertical sonic measurements.
