Thermal management products are offered
Controls and automation components supplier, Hawco, is offering high quality thermal cutouts, thermostats, thermal fuses and thermistors for all industry sectors.
Designed for the testing and verification of temperature sensing devices in the field, the ETC offers the plant maintenance engineer a rugged toolbox sized instrument matching the accuracy of much more expensive competitors.
With an accuracy of +/- 0.5degC to +/- 0.09degC over a temperature range of -10degC to 125degC or 28degC to 400degC, depending on the model chosen, the ETC series is designed for use when time is the major factor and the highest accuracy is not so critical.
A heat up and stabilisation time of only three minutes enables a temperature verification routine to be completed in under 10 minutes.
The ETC incorporates the standard Jofra RS232 communication interface and easy to use Amecal-Light calibration software, which come installed, as standard and ready to use.
The heating block incorporates a novel design where the pre-drilled insertion holes for the temperature devices on test are located around a highly efficient element.
Unlike other calibrators there is no removable insert tube so reducing bulk and speeding heat up time.
There are two models in the series; the ETC 400A designed for optimum speed and stability and the ETC125A, which at an entry level price of around GBP 800.00 is a simple and effective temperature checker, also suitable for below ambient temperatures such as air conditioning.
The easy to use controls incorporate 'one-key, one-function' so providing fast operation and doing away with the need to follow complicated menus.
For the first time high accuracy temperature verification comes at an affordable price.
