Producer of Temperature Transmitters Announces Further Improvements

25 September 2008

Status Transmitters will be launching a new variation on their already very successful line of transmitters, outing them ahead of their competition.

The new ‘Smart Cap’ SEM710 from Status Transmitters is a universal temperature transmitter featuring integrated 4 digit LED display and a USB interface that allows rapid user programming. The transmitter is powered via the USB port during programming meaning there is no need to wire it up to configure it- you just simply plug in the USB cable. It also comes as standard with an isolated input for both Pt100 and Thermocouples while the display can be programmed to read in Deg C, Deg F or loop mA.

The SEM710 can be supplied in either our ABS plastic SCH4 connection head or our new SCH15 316 Stainless Steel connection head. The new SCH15 has been designed to coincide with the launch of the SEM710 and comes with M16 connections and is sealed to IP67. Finished in highly polished stainless steel, the transmitter is suitable for installation in various industries including the chemical, pharmaceutical, HVAC, machine, process, food and beverage industries.

The unique USB capability, together with Status’s configuration software and internal menu options, allows the user to carry out a simple, yet comprehensive set up routine for the transmitters. The free configuration software will read the product part number and configurate automatically- to change configuration you simply type in the configuration you want and click the download icon.

Given the number of variations in sensor types and temperature ranges, stock holding can be expensive.  However, the universal input and USB versatility of these latest Status units allows one unit to meet the majority of requirements, saving the user a significant amount of set up time.

The transmitter can be preset to failsafe in either Hi or Lo mode in the event of a sensor burn out. If required, transmitters can easily be reset to factory default settings. Status’s proprietary galvanic isolation comes as standard on all units as well as the drift-free digital linearization and the unprecedented 10 year warranty should ensure company’s to the total customer commitment.
