Sensor Film for Monitoring Surface Temperature Variations

Sensor Products Inc has launched a Sensor Film for Checking/Correcting of Surface Temperature Variations. The company has announced that as thermal management is critical for many applications, there is a growing need for Thermex® surface temperature distribution film. Thermex is a quick and uncomplicated tool that enables relative temperature measurement in .1 seconds or less in the range of 200° to 300°F (93° to 149°C). Upon exposure to heat and contact, Thermex permanently reveals relative temperature distribution between two surfaces. The intensity of this colour change directly relates to the temperature, enabling Thermex to reveal spot high or low temperatures and minute surface temperature variations. Virtually any application involving the testing and monitoring of heated contacting surfaces is a candidate, including invasive intolerant environments and interfaces not easily accessed with traditional temperature indicators and infrared thermometers. While Thermex used for testing may be saved for archival purposes, its inexpensive cost renders it inherently disposable. The product is available in sheets or rolls that can be easily trimmed to size. Thermex is a stand-alone product that may be combined for post processing analysis with Topaq® a scanner/software system for temperature variations that need to be pinpointed with great precision. The company offers imaging services or the system can be leased or bought.
