About Instuments
General about instruments
Pentronic provides many types of instruments for indication, control, logging and calibration.
The product range also includes flow meters and measuring systems for moisture, grease, protein and thickness.
You can read about different types of instruments here.Constant pull will stabilize batch melting and forehearth conditions. Early identification of batch problems.

IR-pyrometers
The IR-pyrometer is a temperature sensor though it measures contactlessly. All bodies at temperatures above 0 K (kelvin) radiate infrared light which is propotional to the temperature of the body.
In our product portfolio you will find:
• Handheld pyrometers
• Process pyrometers for fixed installation
Transmitters
Signals are often transferred to measurement and control systems by the aid of transmitters. A wide product range is available of transmitters that can be mounted in sensor terminal heads or in cabinets on DIN-rails. The transmitters convert the sensor signal into e.g. 4-20 mA, 0-10 V, Profibus, Hart or other digital protocols. It is also common to use transmitter as a Zener barrier in EX environment.
Indicators and controllers
Pentronic markets indicators and controllers with inputs for temperature sensors and other process signals. Our experience and knowledge are important when selecting equipment, sensors and other instrumentation.
Handheld thermometers
Often there is a need for small mobile thermometers, for example at maintenance or for audit of equipment and processes.
Note that there are handheld high performance thermometers available in chapter Calibration. Sensors for handheld units you will find under chapter Temperature sensors (Thermocouples or Pt100).
Data loggers
A simple way of saving documentation from production, development, testing and troubleshooting is using data loggers. Our selection of loggers cover simple models as well as advanced loggers for demanding applications.
Calibration equipment
Calibration equipment
To assure traceability in measurements in a plant down to the actual process thermometer calibration equipment is needed. By the experiences of our accredited laboratory we have gathered a lot of knowledge and know-how of the field. We have a wide selection of instruments, furnaces and baths for calibration.
Flowmeters
We have a selection of very accurate flowmeters dedicated to liquids within a very wide range of viscosity, from 1 to 106 mm2/s. Examples of applications are paints, lacquers, PUR, glues, PVC, hydraulic oils and airflows as well as flows of the areas of food and pharmaceutics. Our flow meters are based on either gear wheel, turbine, screw or mass flow – Coriolis principles.
Moisture monitors
Since many years Pentronic has supplied mainly Swedish industry with equipment for contactless online measurement of moisture, fat, protein etc. In addition, film and coating thicknesses can be measured continuously and contactless. We also supply measurement systems for laboratory use or sampling in processes. Examples of applications are: Paper, cellulose, converting, forest, bioenergy, foods, pharmaceuticals etc.
