Mouser has announced a new global distribution agreement with Amphenol company AIRMAR Technology. The company specialises in advanced ultrasonic transducers, electromagnetic flow sensors, and sensor monitoring systems for commercial fishing, meteorology, ocean survey, and industrial process control markets.
Mouser will stock a wide range of the company's solutions, including their WeatherStation portfolio. The ultrasonic WeatherStation instruments deliver accurate, reliable weather data from a rugged, compact design with no moving parts. These all-in-one multisensors can measure real-time apparent wind speed and direction, air temperature and calculated wind chill, barometric pressure, relative humidity, calculated dew point and heat index. These instruments elevate environmental sensing to the next level by measuring movement factors such as position, speed over ground (SOG) and course over ground (COG), rate-of-turn, and pitch and roll. The instruments feature an integrated internal compass and GPS, allowing the unique measurement of dynamic true wind speed and direction from marine and land-based mobile platforms. A 3D compass with dynamic stabilisation provided by the three-axis rate gyro improves heading accuracy in heavy pitch and roll conditions.
The company's AIRDUCER ultrasonic industrial transducers suit various applications and environments. These transducers supply proven non-contact sensing performance for level and flow measurement of liquids or bulk solids, for process control in distance measurements, part monitoring, and proximity sensing. The transducers are rated IP68 and have no moving parts to wear out, so no maintenance is required. Unlike most alternative measurement solutions, these ultrasonic transducers can detect clear, transparent or shiny objects and are unaffected by colour. They operate within a frequency range of 15kHz to 1MHz and achieve a sensing range from 5cm (2") to 60m (196.85').
