Miraculous Types of Temperature Controller

 

Temperature Controllers have stood up time to time differently among other similar products owing to its innumerable uses and functions. They are the most accurate and reliable device product to control the temperatures to desirable values. They are commonly referred to as ‘thermostats’.

Today, in the market, they are available in three different categories, differentiated on the basis of their functions, working and principles-

·         On/ Off Thermostats- they are the most common and cheapest type of temperature controllers which function on the principle of on/ off like a switch. When the temperature is either lowered or higher than the set value, a trigger is made and it starts working. As soon as the temperature is made according to the desirable value, the thermostat switches itself off. The most common example of these are the thermostats fixed at our houses and offices READ MORE

The most common example of these are the Temperature controller fixed at our houses and offices.

·         Proportional Control Thermostat- The controls are set to function as soon as the limit is set and the controls respond even before the desired temperature range slips off. It is best used in industries and smart devices.

·         PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) Control Thermostat- It is using both the principal of a proportional control as well as of integral and derivative controls. It is the most expensive type of thermostat. As it combines all the controls together and gives a wide range of usage and functionality, it provides the best overall temperature control.

                              A DIFFERENTIATION TABLE-

ON/ OFF THERMOSTATS	PROPORTIONAL CONTROL THERMOSTATS	PROPORTIONAL INTEGRAL DERIVATIVE CONTROL THERMOSTATS
Most common and Cheapest	Moderate Price	Expensive as compared to the other two types.
Uses the on/ off Principal like a Switch	Uses the responsive principal (proportional control)	Uses the proportional, integral and proportional principals.
Respond when a set limit is reached	Respond to change in temperature before it slips out of the desired range.	Respond to the current surroundings and adjust the temperature accordingly.
Uses- Thermostats installed in houses and offices.	Uses- Thermostats used in industrial works and smart devices.	Uses- Temperature controller used in control systems of the industrial automation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5 Advantages of a Temperature Logger

 

A temperature logger is a type of data logger which is specifically employed to capture and record and store data which are temperature- specific. It records the changes in temperature over a period of time. It is also known as a thermistor.

They consist of two main elements that are essential for its proper functioning-

·         The temperature sensors which measure the temperature changes. These sensor probes can also be external depending upon the model.

·         The recording system which records the data of temperature changes.

Things to take care while buying a Temperature logger-

·         Check for a model with high levels of accuracy.

·         It should have effective repeatability for better functionality and test purposes.

·         It should have a long battery life and the battery should be, if possible, rechargeable.

·         It should have and offer low follow- on and maintenance costs.

·         It should be equipped with an efficient and good software to store data securely READ MORE
