Gneuss: Sensors for Accurate Measurement of Polymer Melt Pressure and Temperature

Thanks to a major expansion of its product ranges, Gneuss (www.gneuss.com) offers environmentally - friendly solutions for practically every melt pressure, temperature and viscosity measurement application in the plastics processing industry. The unique, mercury-free NTX technology permits accurate measurements which previously could only be achieved using mercury.

The most significant new features are:
• Highly sensitive reaction with maximum resilience

Advert

• High accuracy: up to 0,1 % of measurement scale
• Excellent long term reproducibility of measurement values
• Mercury - free melt pressure transducers with new NTX technology
• Explosion proof design 2 - wire 4 to 20 mA
• Optional CAN-open or HART communication
• High temperature sensors for up to 500°C
• Strengthened diaphragms from non - standard materials for special requirements
• G-coating: special surface treatment for better performance with sticky media
• Pressure sensor with auto - 0 function
• Patented melt pressure transducer with heated tip for excellent sensor longevity with sticky materials with strong cooling shrinkage properties. Revolutionary performance with critical media.
• Melt temperature sensors with ceramic sleeve for insulation of the measurement tip in order to prevent the influence of external heat sources
• DIN ISO 9000: 2001, ATEX, GOST R, measurement equipment and RTN- approval (ATEX , not ATEX-QS)
