2.1. Kaye ValProbe RT Loggers
There are eight Kaye ValProbe RT Loggers types:
• Temperature - Measures temperature from –85°C to 140°C. The
bendable Temperature Logger may be used in conjunction with
an Insulating Canister to measure temperature up to 400°C.
• Pressure and Temperature - Measures pressure from 0 to 5bar
absolute and temperature from 0°C to 140°C.
Figure 5: Kaye ValProbe RT Loggers
The Kaye ValProbe RT Loggers are made from pharmaceutical grade
polyether ether ketone (PEEK), 316 stainless steel, and designed for in-situ
use. For example, they can be immersed in cleaning fluid or detergents, or
used in harsh environments. They can store the study setup and up to
100,000 pressure samples and 100,000 temperature samples with variable
stop/start conditions in non-volatile memory.
WARNING! Substitution of components may damage the logger.
Do not heat the Temperature Logger above 140°C.
Do not heat the Pressure/Temperature Logger above 140°C.
Do not submerge the Logger in oil, cleansing liquid or
detergents for more than two hours at temperatures below
–20°C. After two hours the O-ring seal may degrade and
should be replaced.
CAUTION! Any Logger dropped from 3 ft or higher is susceptible to
inaccurate temperature readings; a dropped logger that
inaccurately reads surface temperature is not considered a
manufacturer defect and is not covered under warranty.
