We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Ambient Temperature",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Keep compressed air cool and save costs from
Boge Compressors, which we summarised at the time by saying "Refrigerant compressed air dryers that provide environmental and economic benefits are ozone- and environmentally friendly in operation and need only a minimum amount of refrigerant".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Temperature transmitter networks 126 sensors from
Moore Industries International: "A programmable fieldbus temperature transmitter saves wire and installation costs by allowing up to 126 devices to be networked onto one, low cost Foundation fieldbus H1 segment".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Corsair
concerning its Power supplies
- take a look at Power supplies with a dedicated single +12V rail
which says: "The Corsair TX Series of power supplies has been launched with a dedicated single +12V rail and maximum compatibility with the latest system components".
Take a look also at the news release from Honeywell Control Systems, Variable speed drives have IP21 protection,
as well as Infrared cameras give 'razor sharp' images from Flir Systems,
and Temperature transmitter is accurate, reliable from Endress + Hauser.
