Clamp meter is an electronic instrument that measures current and is widely used in electrical engineering, electronic maintenance, energy management and other fields. Clamp meters measure electrical current non-invasively by clipping around a current conductor without interrupting the circuit or directly touching the conductor. This design makes it a safe, convenient and efficient tool, especially suitable for measuring AC current.

A temperature data logger is a device used to measure and record ambient temperature. It is usually used to monitor and record temperature changes, especially in situations where a specific temperature range needs to be maintained, such as cold chain transportation, food storage and transportation, pharmaceuticals, laboratories, medical equipment and other fields.

A bimetallic thermometer is a common sensor used for measuring temperature. It is composed of two different metals stacked together, and their slight deformation due to differential expansion rates caused by temperature changes is used to measure temperature. In this article, sisco will introduce the working principle, structure, features and applications of bimetallic thermometers.

Laser Distance Meters (LDMs) are handheld devices that use laser technology to measure distances accurately. They operate on the principle of emitting a laser beam towards a target object and measuring the time it takes for the beam to reflect off the object and return to the device. By calculating the time of flight and considering the speed of light, these devices provide precise distance measurements. Laser distance meters are commonly used in various industries, including construction, surveying, and real estate, offering a quick and efficient alternative to traditional measurement tools like tape measures. Laser distance meters, also known as laser rangefinders or laser distance measurers, operate based on the principle of time-of-flight. The basic idea is to measure the time it takes for a laser pulse to travel to a target and back, and then use this information to calculate the distance.

A gloss meter is an instrument used to measure the degree of surface gloss on objects such as plastics, inks, paints, coatings, marble, granite, and coated surfaces. It finds extensive application in industries such as chemical raw materials, coatings manufacturing, automotive, electronics, electrical appliances, and other fields requiring specialized measuring instruments. High-precision gloss meters are categorized into high gloss, medium gloss, and low gloss types based on the measurement angle. In this article, Sisco will introduce the working principle, usage, application range, and precautions for testing gloss meters to help you gain a better understanding of this instrument.

A scale, also known as a scale displacement sensor (scale transducer), is a measurement and feedback device that works with the optical principle of a grating. Often used in closed-loop servo systems for CNC machine tools, optical scales can be used to detect linear or angular displacements. Linear scale is one of the types of scale, an optical sensor device used to measure linear displacement, the main principle of which is based on the interference and diffraction effects of light. It is widely used in industrial automation, CNC machine tools, precision measurement, etc. sisco shop will introduce the structure, basic principle, and application of linear scale in detail.

The height gauge is a precision measuring instrument used to measure the height, position, or size of an object. These height gauges are categorized by different operating principles and sensing technologies to suit different applications. Below are the common types of height gauges, as well as the classification and details of height gauges.

A network tester, also commonly known as a professional network tester or network detector, is a portable, visual, intelligent testing device that can detect the operating conditions of the physical layer, data link layer, and network layer defined by the OSI model. It is mainly suitable for local area networks. In fault detection, maintenance and integrated wiring construction, the functions of the network tester cover the physical layer, data link layer and network layer.

Digital inclinometer is a measuring instrument widely used in various fields. It detects the tilt angle of an object relative to the direction of gravity and displays it on the digital display in real time. It can be used to accurately measure parameters such as inclination, tilt, and level. The following will introduce the working principle, types and applications of digital inclinometers.

Spectrophotometers are instruments used to measure the concentration of substances, and their basic principle involves determining the concentration of a substance based on its absorbance properties. The measurement principle is founded on Beer-Lambert's Law, which states that the absorbance of light by a substance is directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and inversely proportional to the path length of the light. Spectrophotometers achieve this by breaking down visible or ultraviolet light into different wavelengths and then measuring the intensity of light absorbed by the sample at different wavelengths to determine the substance's concentration. In this article, Sisco will briefly introduce spectrophotometer to you, including its components, working principle, classifications, usage process and applications etc., to help you have a better understanding of it.
