A weekend of faith and love

The ongoing weekend, that kicked off with Shivaratri and includes Valentine's Day, is the first long one of the year. Many are headed out to popular tourist spots.

We design and manufacture sensors for end-user and originalequipment manufacturers (OEMs) applications. LumaSense has provenexpertise in developing state of the art infrared and fiber optictemperature sensors, radiometric thermal imagers, and gas analyzers. Acommon theme in our sensors is the use of infrared (IR) light to providerobust, accurate sensors for demanding environments, applications andcustomers. The PULSAR III is following thistrend of superior products provided to the marketplace."About LumaSense Technologies(TM)LumaSense Technologies is a global leader in providing temperature and gassensing solutions to industrial, energy, medical and clean technologymarkets. "Companies Worldwide look to Mikron for accurateinfrared temperature data using innovative technology and providingexceptional quality and performance. The PULSAR III includes digitalcommunication and control software with the advanced Mikron FlameManagement Algorithm (FMA).

This exclusive algorithm compensates forflame and refractory crosstalk between channels allowing for an accuracyof Flame and Refractory temperature measurements never before achieved."With the latest generation of PULSAR infrared thermometers, we show thataccurate control of combustion processes, refractory cure-out andpreventative maintenance while the vessel is fully operational maintenanceis possible," comments Brett Sargent, Vice President of Sales forLumaSense Technologies. Unlike its predecessor, the PULSAR II, the PULSAR III is designed tomeasure two wavelengths using the same optics for continuous andinstantaneous measurement of Refractory Temperature (RT), Gas Temperature(GT) and Integrated Temperature (FF) in the vessel away from the heat,vibration and corrosive gases. Throughcomputer calibration and advanced electronics, Mikron has produced anon-contact thermometer exceeding T/C temperature ranges in a single,linear and continuous scale of 662 to 3632 degrees F (350 to 2000 degreesC). The PULSAR III is designed to replace narrowscale pyrometers, thermocouples (T/C) and resistance temperature detectors(RTDs) where performance is marginal, unreliable or impractical. Installations that use the reactionfurnace to incinerate waste gases such as ammonia and hydrocarbons mustmaintain an adequate temperature to assure the breakdown of thesecomponents.

Advanced processes such as O2 enrichment normally involvehigher temperatures and demand close monitoring.The most common limitation of the typical infrared thermometer is itsnarrow single scale limits.

SANTA CLARA, CA, Jul 21 (MARKET WIRE) -- LumaSense Technologies, a leading provider of infrared thermography,non-contact temperature and gas sensing solutions, today announced aunique new generation of temperature measurement solutions designedspecifically for continuous-duty monitoring of high temperature reactorsof all kinds, based on the new PULSAR III.The Mikron PULSAR III infrared thermometer is a crucial component forcontrol of the reaction furnace temperature, thus preventing damage to therefractory at high temperatures and ammonium salt from plugging theconverters at low temperatures.

The bankruptcy court's decision allowed Frontier Airlines toimplement a 14 percent cut in wages "We are extremely pleased with the decision," said Capt David Bourne,Director of the Teamsters Airline Division. "Companies should not run to courtin hopes a judge will do the negotiating for them." The Teamsters Union has refused to agree to Frontier's demand that it have theunlimited right to permanently outsource its heavy-check maintenance.
