Next Generation Memosens 2.0 Liquid Analysis Sensors are IIoT-Ready

 

Endress+Hauser’s Memosens technology revolutionized liquid analysis. It converts the measured value to a digital signal and sends it inductively to the transmitter, offering safe data transfer for increased availability of the measuring point and trouble-free processes. Now, with the introduction of Memosens 2.0 sensors for pH/ORP, conductivity and dissolved oxygen, those liquid analysis measuring points are future-proof and IIoT-ready ready, offering a range of potential additional benefits, like a data foundation for predictive maintenance. Endress+Hauser plans to extend the technology to its entire sensor portfolio for liquid analysis.

POSITAL Extends Product Finder Portal to Include Kit Encoders

 

Kit (or modular) encoders are designed to be integrated into electric motors or other types of rotating machinery, providing position feedback for the control system. While sharing performance characteristics with POSITAL’s stand-alone absolute encoders, kit encoders are stripped-down designs without their own shafts, bearings, or seals. Instead, the rotating element – a permanent magnet array – is attached directly to a motor’s shaft, while the measurement module is designed to fit onto the motor’s housing.
