Bi-directional velocity sensors measure velocity, temperature, and airflow direction simultaneously The simultaneous measurement of air velocity and air direction is essential to environmental management and process control. Building air should move from clean to dirty zones, and then out, to provide for healthy indoor environments. To conserve energy, reduce cooling costs, and prevent electronics from […]
UAS1000 EF Sensors allow OCP NIC 3.0 designers to test PCBAs, optimize thermal designs, and define cooling capability for cards. The 2022 OCP Global Summit held in October covered NIC (network interface card) 3.0, just one of the OCP community’s many projects supporting the growing demands on computing infrastructure and next-generation datacenters. Thermal testing of […]
Monitor Electronics Moving air is an effective option to keep electronics cool. When hardware issues such as fan failure occur within dense electronic systems and enclosures, overheating, component damage, unstable operation or even catastrophic failure may result. Airflow management using pcb mount air velocity sensors to provide real-time feedback can identify problem areas before damage […]
The UHS1000 Humidity Sensor The UHS1000 is a relative humidity (RH) sensor, measuring the water vapor content of air, and features the convenience of USB connectivity. UHS1000 is most often used with its companion sensors, the UAS1000 (Air Velocity), and UTS1000/RTD1000 (Air and Surface Temperature) sensors, to create multipoint and multifactor environmental testing. In addition, […]
Do you need an air velocity sensor to CFM test your ceiling fans? The UAS1000 OD (“omnidirectional”) air velocity and temperature sensor is purpose-built for CFM (cubic feet of airflow per minute) testing of ceiling fans. Optimized for circulating air and applications where the predominant flow vector is well known, the UAS1000 OD is calibrated […]

The tools used for TAB (Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing) and commissioning work are as important as the professionals who perform the work1. Degree Controls offers some of the airflow instruments listed in the NEBB TAB Required Instrumentation list, used to record measurements for certified reports. In addition, Degree Controls offers airflow tools to help HVAC […]
Remote head sensors meet requirements when the sensing area is too small for typical probe-style sensors. Degree Controls F-Series Remote Head Sensors are air velocity and temperature sensors where the sensing element is separate from sensor electronics. Remote head sensors are used in instances where the sensing area is too small for a typical probe-style […]
Is it Time for an Airflow Sensor Calibration? Degree Controls air velocity and temperature sensors are highly accurate, but still require proper calibration at regular intervals to assure precise measurements. Whether airflow sensors are used in critical manufacturing processes, HVAC systems, or research and development projects, periodic calibration ensures sensors are functioning properly and gives […]
Designing airflow intelligence into electronic systems with board-mount air velocity sensors helps protect components from thermal damage and ensures the overall efficacy of air flow products such as air cleaners and purifiers1. Incorporating Degree Controls board-mount air velocity and temperature sensors onto pcbas in electronic enclosures allows engineers to collect performance data and enables systems […]
