| The Thermocouple sensor is designed for measuring temperatures
in dangerous or harsh environments in heavy industries such as petrochemical and
metal processing. Other uses for this AKCP Thermocouple sensor apart from
manufacturing and industrial purposes include the cryogenics field,
superconductor research & development, semiconductor development and
scientific research.
The AKCP Thermocouple is TCP/IP enabled and allows temperature monitoring
over a TCP/IP network or the Internet. The AKCP Thermocouple sensor plugs into
any existing sensorProbe8Linux, securityProbe or cameraProbe8 products via a
standard RJ-45 connector and can be easily configured via the web-based
interface to monitor and to set alerts based on user-defined thresholds.
The new AKCP type K Thermocouple sensor has the ability to measure
temperatures from -270 Celsius (-454 Fahrenheit) to 800 Celsius (1472
Fahrenheit). The AKCP Thermocouple sensor which is 0.61m by 4.5mm (sheath
diameter) features a response time of 0.5 seconds and is fully compatible with
any of the sensorProbe8Linux and cameraProbe8 product lines.
When
the Thermocouple sensor is plugged into the RJ-45 port, the sensorProbe will
auto detect the sensor. A built-in graph option is included on all sensorProbes
for graphing temperature variations over a period of time.
The
Thermocouple sensor has its own SNMP OID so that the data can be collected over
network and graphed using external applications like MRTG.
The
Thermocouple sensor can read using the included SNMP utilities to allow graphing
and data logging at 0.5 C resolution and has a respond time of 0.5 seconds.
Note: This sensor is designed to work with the securityProbe,
sensorProbe8Linux and cameraProbe8 only. |
