A new digital tension controller is claimed to be one of the most comprehensive tension control systems currently available
The M-Series uses digital signal processing with the innovative HygroClip probe and a new custom designed ASIC chip.
This technology provides significant performance and technical advantages for the user and system integrator, including digital signal communication, fast probe interchangeability, digital calibration using hand-held devices and user configuration options.
The transmitters have high precision measurement and unrivalled long-term stability.
Three types are offered in the series - M1 is a basic transmitter with fixed probes for wall and duct installation.
It incorporates an integral digital interface to which a hand-held device can be connected for test and calibration functions.
M2 is similar to M1, but has the ability to interchange probes, either to simplify maintenance/calibration, or to change its application.
The top-of-the-range M3 transmitter incorporates many advanced options.
The standard measured values of %rh and degC can be converted into different humidity parameters such as dewpoint or enthalpy, and then output as an analogue signal in combination with either %rh or degC.
Measurement data can also be transmitted using a serial output (RS232/485) or via radio communication.
Both protocols can be combined onto a monitoring/control network.
All three types measure over the full 0 - 100%rh range, including exposure to condensation which has no effect on the Hygromer sensor.
Temperature measurement covers the range -40 to +85degC, with ranges such as 0 - 50degC or -30 to.+70degC available as standard.
Signal output choice includes 0-1V, 0-5V, 0-10V, 0-20mA or 4-20mA.
The M-Series is a new generation of humidity/temperature transmitters, but it is directly compatible and interchangeable with the Rotronic F, FT, FH and DPT-Series that they replace.
