Thermocouple-To-Wireless Connector/Converter Debuts

The UWTC series features compact, stand-alone, battery-powered, wireless thermocouple connectors that transmit linear, cold-junction compensated measurements back to a USB-powered receiver. Each connector is programmable in the field to work as a type J, K, T, E, R, S, B, N, or C calibration connector. A universal input accepts both standard and miniature size mating connectors. When activated, the connector will transmit data continuously at user-selectable time intervals, and up to 12 connectors can interface with a single receiver. The components come with software that converts a PC into a 12-channel meter, strip chart recorder, and data logger. Pricing starts at $125 each. OMEGA ENGINEERING INC., Stamford, CT. (203) 359-1660.
