This Indicating Temperature Transmitter has No Exposed Threads

| By Chemical Engineering

Designed for pharmaceutical, biotech and food-and-beverage applications, the housing of this transmitter is constructed from 316L stainless steel and has no exposed threads. It is resistant to most of the cleaning chemicals typically found in the targeted application sectors. Additionally, with its NEMA 4X (IP67) environmental sealing and the ability to withstand ambient temperatures of up 158°F (70°C), the transmitter is suitable for most CIP (clean in place) applications. The instrument features a four-digit (– 1,999 to 9,999), seven-segment LCD with visible dimensions of 1.31 in. X 0.52 in. The process temperature can be configured for display in either degrees Farenheit or Celsius and the update of the readings is user-selectable between 0.25 and 2 seconds, according to the filter on the readings. With a ½-in. NPT conduit entry, ½-in. NPT sensor connection and universal electronics, this new temperature transmitter can be used with virtually every type of RTD and thermocouple. — Weed Instrument Co., Round Rock, Tex.
