Radio Frequency ablation is a minimally invasive approach for the treatment of cancers. It is performed by inducing alternating current through the RF electrode that causes heat. The temperature needs to be precisely controlled to cause tissue necrosis (death of cells). RF equipment is used in combination with Fiber optic point sensors, typically G read more..

Microwave heating is very popular for quick and selective digestion of materials in various industries e.g. Food and feed, Pharmaceutical, Chemistry, Environmental, etc. In these application, the sample is mixed into an acid mixture and heated to high temperature, up to 250 or 300⁰C. However, spontaneous heating of acid mixture induces exothermic r read more..

The L201 is a multi-channel monitoring system that comes with up to 08 measurement channels, one serial communication port (RS485), one USB port for configuration, and slot for micro SD memory. It can be powered by 5V external Battery or from PC / Laptop (UBS Powered). The L201 is being used in laboratories and research applications where accurate (less than 1°C), faster (200ms) and repeatable (100%) temperature testing/monitoring is needed under harsh conditions such as High Electric, Magnetic, Chemical, RF/Microwave environments. It has a wide measuring range from -269 °C to +300 °C.
The L201 has a local display for configuration and real time temperature monitoring of all channels. The Rugged Connect software is used for data display and configuration by the laptop or Desktop Computer (PC). The Rugged Connect software is common software being utilized for all fiber optic temperature monitors from RUGGED MONITORING. It has advance features for data visualization, trending, data logging, data export, configuration and reporting. The L201 also supports easy data integration with third party system using its built-in protocols, Modbus, DNP3.0 and IEC60870-104. Industry standard drivers (MATLAB, LabVIEW, python) are available for a quick and easy connect to most popular laboratories software. The Rugged Connect software can also be customized to meet specific requirements of our customers.
The L201 can be connected with an external Analog Output Module that allows sending measured data to third party systems in current (4-20mA) or Voltage (0-5V or 0-10V) signal format. Analog output values can be programmed to send measurement from one or multiple channels.
