Temperature Meters & Displays Many temperature sensors like thermocouples, RTDs and some thermistors are sold as seperate items and a readout meter, data logger or controller is needed to complete a measurement or measurement and control system. Often the vendors for the two components of a system are very different because there are many ways to build economy into a measurement and control system rather than buying a complete system from one vendor. In
some plant installations also there can be very long distances between the measurement
location and the readout or system input. Here, too, third party electronics suppliers
offer a variety of ways to transmit the signal from the sensor to the measuring
electronics from compensating extension cable for thermocouples, to linear current
transmitters to wireless, spread-spectrum modems. There's something to suit almost
every situation and often a significant number of available equipment suppliers
ready and willing to help solve the problem. This page deals with a collection of electronics and is not as well organized and the equipment as well classified as other pages on the web site. Some of the essentials are here, but frankly we still think it needs more work and are planning to do more soon Thanks for your patience and for visiting.
