Product roundup: temperature and pressure

Jan. 6, 2017
Temperature and pressure tools are gaining new capabilities, form factors and protections for securing and delivering their essential signals and data.

Benchtop digital panel meter

MDS8PT is a universal unit that houses the company’s Platinum Series 1/8-DIN digital panel meter. Its color-changing LED display is programmable at any setpoint or alarm. The unit can handle 10 types of thermocouples, thermistors, multiple RTDs, and several process (DC) voltage and current ranges. It also has universal input with dual alarm relays, optional RS232/RS485 Modbus and embedded Ethernet.
