Due to the liberalisation of the rolling stock market, more and more companies use the existing rail infrastructure. Trains are therefore equipped with energy measurement systems to track the power consumption of different operators and enable transparent billing. However, without reliable, highly accurate transducers, energy consumption data can only be of limited use.

Smooth-running services as well as passenger and employee safety in railway operations depend on functions such as emergency shutdown in the event of short circuits, detection of delayed potentials, and safe signal transmission. Therefore, transducers for railway applications must meet the highest standards of reliability and precision.

Expanding its slim Memosens transmitter series MemoRail, Knick Elektronische Messgeräte has designed it for control cabinet installation with a Modbus interface version. The MemoRail Modbus A1405N is the first multi-parameter analyser that provides operators with an economic, compact transmitter for full-featured integration of Memosens monitoring stations into the fieldbus standard. Up until now, operators could only choose between com...

At this year's ACHEMA exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany, Knick Elektronische Messgeräte (hall 11.1, stand A45) will showcase 'THE BEST OF MEMOSENS' comprising various product innovations for this digital sensor technology. Memosens solves typical problems in fluid analysis through noncontact transmission of measured values, sensor data, and supply voltage.

Knick Elektronische Messgeräte has expanded its range of compact transmitters for the Memosens standard by adding MemoTrans, a lean 2-wire multiparameter solution that supports 4-20mA and HART communication. The combination of transmitter and sensor interface in a single space-saving unit enables a direct, loop-powered connection of the measuring point to the process control system.

  Manufacturer of high quality signal, sensor, current and voltage measurement devices for utility, rail, ship, and other rugged environments, Knick Elektronische Messgeräte has announced its P 43000 TRMS AC/DC high voltage transducers.
