Online — As the review of this novel product on OverclockersHQ says:
Have you ever wondered how much heat your CPU cooler is actually diverting? Have you ever wondered if that temperature sensor on your motherboard for your CPU is functioning properly?
SP Scientific announces a new generation temperature control system for precise and reliable device testing and characterization, the ThermoJet ES.
Stone Ridge NY, USA & Ipswich, UK – The ThermoJet ES has been designed to deliver controlled temperature air from -80 °C to +350 °C at air flow rates from 5 to 20 scfm. A type T thermocouple now enables the ThermoJet ES to provide high accuracy (0.5 °C) temperature control throughout its range of operation. continue reading »

Kissing, Germany – /MEXPERTS AG/-Lifting heavy loads under the harshest of conditions has always been one of the specialties for the jacking systems from Pfaff-silberblau GmbH, with headquarters in the Southern German town of Kissing. With a clever special jacking system based on its versatile SHE worm-gear screw jacks, the company is now reducing downtimes for the steel industry’s galvanizing lines.
The crucial features: A special sensor monitors the temperature of the gearbox oil, and an active cooling circuit keeps it at the ideal level. Simultaneously, a contactless sensor constantly monitors the temperature at the screw and does not turn off the system unless there is a risk of overheating. continue reading »
