Fundamentals of Temperature Measurement- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
Recording temperature is one of the
basic tasks in process and manufacturing automation. Electronic
temperature sensors are the most widely used in automation applications
but conventional thermometer types are still widely applied in many
areas. The WL 202 experimentation set-up covers the full range of
temperature measurement methods. As well as non-electrical measuring
methods, such as gas- and liquid-filled thermometers and bimetallic
thermometers, all typical electronic measuring methods are covered in
the experiments. The electronically measured temperatures are displayed
directly on programmable digital displays. A temperature-proportionate
output voltage signal (0 - 10V) is accessible from lab jacks, enabling
temperature characteristics to be recorded with, for example, a plotter.
A digital multimeter with precision resistors is used to calibrate the
electrical measuring devices. Various heat sources or storage units
(immersion heater, vacuum flask and laboratory heater) permit relevant
temperature ranges to be achieved for the sensors being tested. A
plastic casing houses the sensors, cables, temperature measuring strips
and immersion heater. The well-structured instructional material sets
out the technological fundamentals and provides a step-by-step guide
through the measurements and experiments.
