Calibration Solutions All-new 20-channel temperature logger Isotech’s New 4000 Range The company has updated nine of its most popular calibrators to bring new styling and updated features. Each model is available in three different versions from a cost effective heat source to fully featured devices which include a three channel temperature indicator, temperature logging and Ethernet interface. DATAPAQ TP3 for heat treatment, paint-curing, and ceramics processes. This new “4000 Range” spans -45 to 1200°C with models that can be used as Dry Blocks or Stirred Liquid Baths with options for infrared thermometers, surface sensors and even to operate ITS-90 Fixed Point Cells. “Our customers, who range from the worlds’ leading National Laboratories to site engineers have long valued the accuracy and quality of our equipment. This new range is a response from customers demanding modern styling and more features such as more input channels, advanced logging and an Ethernet interface. We are proud to meet this demand in a new lighter and stronger rugged case.” Email: [email protected] www.isotech.co.uk Intertek, leading quality solutions provider to industries worldwide, has launched a hi-tech tank calibration service in the UK offering highly accurate calibration data to customers across Europe, complementing the company’s existing services for the oil and gas industry. This new service combines years of tank calibration experience with the latest available software to enable Intertek to provide highly accurate tank and sphere calibrations, using the latest laser theodolites and laser scanners. The new system also makes available tank settlement, tilt check and tank shell out-of-roundness surveys. These hi-tech surveys produce highly accurate data which is important to identify the common ‘tank shell out of roundness’ problem which can affect floating roofs, by impeding their vertical motion. www.intertek.com/uk The new DATAPAQ TP3 data logger provides more measurement channels, connectivity options, and ease of use for profiling and surveying in high-temperature heat treatment applications. With a ±0.3 °C (0.5 °F) accuracy, the all-new logger surpasses the most stringent requirements. “We have worked towards this exciting launch for two years,” states Elie El Choueiry, Furnace and Kiln Product Manager at Datapaq Ltd., Cambridge, UK. “Compared to our previous, successful heat treatment solution TPAQ21, the new DATAPAQ TP3 provides even more detailed insight into high-temperature processes. It is more resilient and includes numerous new features, such as full connectivity including Bluetooth, fully certified TUS capability for AMS 2750E and CQI-9, integrated correction and calibration functions, and flexible charging with multiple battery options.” The new series comprises 20- and 10-channel loggers that store up to 3.6 million data points. One logger can perform up to ten measurement runs before data download. Thermal and ingress protection have been enhanced to ensure optimal performance in extreme applications, such as vacuum brazing, aluminum solution reheat, and water or gas quench. The DATAPAQ TP3 logger is being released along with new, durable thermal barriers for use with the industry-specific temperature profiling systems from Datapaq: Furnace Tracker® for metal-working, Kiln Tracker® for ceramics, and Oven Tracker® AutoPaq® for premium paint cure processes in the automotive OEM assembly market. Each profiling solution includes Insight™ analysis software and thermocouples tailored to the application.
