Sensor reads pressure and temperature
American Sensor Technologies' sensors provide both pressure and temperature outputs from a single process point. This dual-output configuration reduces process-penetration points and leaks, which are dangerous in critical systems such as hydrogen, oxygen, heavy-oil processing, hydraulics, analyzers, offshore pipelines and ammonia systems.
The devices feature a microprocessorcontrolled design, along with a one-piece body construction. Both the Model AST20PT Sensor and Model AST46PT Transmitter offer high accuracy pressure and temperature measurements of ±0.1 percent and 1.0 percent BFSL, respectively.
Both units come in various temperature ranges from -40° to 25O0F (-40° to 1250C). Though the Model AST46FT is offered in pressure ranges up to 20,000 pounds per square inch (1,400 Bar), the Model AST20FT is available in pressure ranges up to 45,000 PSI (3,100 Bar).

Starter kit simplifies energy-harvested wireless sensors
EnOcean GmbH said its ESK 300 starter kit simplifies the testing and development of energy-harvesting wireless solutions for OEM partners. The ESK 300 comes with electromechanical pushbutton generators for switches and a solar-powered temperatures sensor. Radio telegrams from the self-powered sensors are received via USB dongle and visualized via personal computer software. The starter kit comes as a developer tool without CE certification. It is available for 868-MHz (R&TTE) and 315-MHz (FCC) frequencies.
The kit consists of a switch module (FTM 200) for building services, components for different switch applications (PTM 330, ECO 200), a temperature sensor module (STM 330), a USB gateway (USB 300), PC software for visualization (DolphinView...
