Our Promise; Calibration-Quick & Confident

Chuck — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 20:54:23 +0000

Annual calibration of your Secondary Temperature Standard (SSPRT) should NOT take 3 to 4 weeks.

At Burns, we promise to have your sensor on the way back to you within 5 business days or we will take $100 of the cost of the calibration service.

Check out Burns Lab-to-Lab™ Calibration Service, access the Sensor or System Info forms and email them to us. We’ll be in touch to get your instrument scheduled.

Calibration that is quick and accredited (NVLAP® lab code 200706-0) to ensure your measurement confidence and lab efficiency - That’s Our Promise. (Our Promise details)

Burns RTD for Autoclave Applications

Chuck — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 19:26:39 +0000

We have heard multiple frustration-filled stories about large autoclave systems and damaged sensors as large carts and rack are move in and out of the chamber. These conversations have pushed the envelope regarding what an RTD looks like to serve this durability need.

Known in the large autoclave circles as SAH and SAX, these provide the accuracy necessary and the durability hoped for by Autoclave users. These Heavy Duty sensors join the previously released Autoclave RTDs, SAC (Sanitary Autoclave Classic) and SAL (Sanitary Autoclave Load). See all the details in the Series S Autoclave Supplement. (In PDF format)

Curious about how Durable? Intrigued or challenged with a process of your own? Send a note to info@burnsengineering.com we’d love to hear from you.

Burns RTD in Mini form

Chuck — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 15:59:59 +0000

Good things come in small packages. In this case the small package includes Class A accuracy (+/- 0.06%) and a wide temperature range (-196°C to 200°C).

From 0.080″ to 0.25″ diameter and 1.25″ length - and the ultimate in clean and flexible: The A04 with a PFA sheath.

Give us a call (800.326.3871) to discuss how the Series A fit-anywhere RTDs could help with your temperature measurement needs.

Also, Check out the Series A, Mini RTD catalog.

Application Note: Small dia. Lines

Chuck — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 18:46:59 +0000

Measuring temperature in very small diameter tubing can be a challenge.

This application note offers an example of how we customized a standard product to meet the measurement need.

Burns RTDs support BioMass

Chuck — Wed, 04 May 2011 16:23:31 +0000

Burns is proud to support various companies in the Biomass/Biogas arena. Check out this workshop addressing Waste to Energy concepts and issues. (Workshop info in PDF.)

Earth Day-Every day!

Chuck — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 16:56:49 +0000

Earth Day at Burns is all about conserving resources. We recycle and re-use whenever we can, but when we can help our customers conserve that’s a beautiful thing.

Here is a paper about how temperature measurement accuracy can save energy resources (and cost). Technical Paper

Redefining Kelvin, the Int’l unit of Temperature

Chuck — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 20:53:08 +0000

Test and Measurement.com(sm) released an article on how NIST is making strides in research that “…would then redefine the Kelvin…”. This is advancement in the understanding temperature at an atomic level.

NIST is striving for measurement uncertainties of 5ppm or less., (that is 0.000005 degrees) “…a level of precision that would help update crucial underpinnings of science, including the definition of the Kelvin, the international unit of temperature. “

Read the article.. Amazing!

Burns may not have this device available on our website for a long time, but the research is fascinating and, well, you never know…..

Check it out and let us know what you think about the work at NIST.
