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. |
