PTH200: USB Temperature, Relative Humidity and Atmospheric Pressure Sensor
The USB-PTH200 combines a barometer, hygrometer and thermometer for data acquisition through a single USB connection. With typical accuracies of ±0.3°C, ±2%RH and ±0.15kPa, the USB-PTH200 is the perfect sensor for a broad range of applications
New Product Series: USB Converters for Thermocouples
With the converters of the USB-TMC100 series, connecting a thermocouple to a computer is a breeze. Temperature data logging can begin in just a few minutes. Thermocouple type E, J, K, N and T are supported, with built-in compensation based on the NIST ITS-90 tables for excellent precision over a very wide temperature range.
Pre-Wired I2C Temperature and Humidity Sensor for Embedded Systems
This temperature and humidity sensor communicates using a standard I2C protocol, easing integration with a wide variety of micro-controllers and single-board computers such as the Raspberry pi, Arduino and compatibles.
Enhanced Precision USB Temperature and Humidity Sensor with Filter
The USB-TRH420 is specifically designed for environmental temperature and humidity acquisition where enhanced precision (±0.1°C/±1.5%RH) is required. The compact probe eases integration, even in space-constrained locations, and the built-in particle filter provides protection against dust, soot and other contaminants.
USB-TRH450: Precision USB Relative Humidity and Wide-Range Temperature Sensor
The USB-TRH450 is designed for environmental temperature and humidity acquisition where an extended temperature range is required (-40 to +125°C) or where the sensor needs extra physical protection. The compact aluminium probe eases integration, even in space-constrained locations, and the built-in particle filter provides protection against dust, soot and other contaminants.
Precision USB Temperature and Humidity Sensor, with Particle Filter
The new USB-TRH320 precision temperature and relative humidity sensor equals the performance of our USB-TRH300 but is more suitable for harsh environments thanks to the addition of a filter blocking >99.9% of particles of 200nm size.
New Product: USB-RTD200, a 2/3 Wire RTD Sensor to USB Adapter
Connect a 2 or 3-wire Pt100 RTD to a PC using this adapter to perform accurate measurements over a broad temperature range. While the built-in miniature RTD connector allows a quick, easy and error-free probe connection, the compact form factor of the enclosure facilitates integration and makes the USB-RTD200 a product suitable for a multitude of applications.
Introducing USB-BAR20: High Precision USB Barometer
This USB-connected barometer allows for precise measurement of atmospheric pressure (1 to 120 kPa) or altitude. Thanks to the use of a high resolution ADC (24-bitΔΣ), very small changes in atmospheric pressure can be sensed. If used to compute altitude, variations as small as 10 cm can be measured. Designed as a compact USB-key form factor for easy integration even in space-constrained applications.

New: 2/3 Wire RTD to USB adapter
This adapter makes it possible to connect a PT100 RTD element to a PC to perform accurate measurements and logging over a broad range of temperatures. The adapter has a terminal block for easily connecting 2 wire as well as 3 wire probes and provides readings at 0.02°C resolution.
New QTenki Release Adds Real-Time Graphing Functionality
The newly released QTenki 2.0.2 makes it possible to graph the captured data in real time. With this new feature, the results are immediately visible and can be quickly shared without the overhead of switching to a graphing application. The X and Y axis can be automatically scaled to span the current data, or adjusted manually. The resulting graph can be titled and saved to a file in PDF, PNG, JPEG or BMP format.
New product: RS-232 Atmospheric pressure sensor
