CS Instruments DS 400 Set Stationary Dew Point Measurement System

Description

The DS 400 Set represents a sophisticated approach to moisture control. It functions as a stand-alone solution where measured data stored in the optional data logger can be easily read-out via USB stick and evaluated by means of the software CS Soft Basic. The core advantage of this system is its user interface; the touch screen graphic display enables an intuitive operation and clearly shows the progress of the measured values over time, allowing operators to spot trends before they become critical issues.

Versatile Connectivity and Alarm Management

Designed for modern industrial environments, the DS 400 Set offers flexible integration options. It is available either with a classic analogue output 4…20 mA or optionally with digital interfaces like Ethernet and RS 485 (Modbus protocol). This flexibility ensures it can connect to almost any central control system. Furthermore, for immediate on-site safety, 2 alarm relays are available for the monitoring of threshold values, ensuring that any deviation from the set dew point targets triggers an immediate response.

Brand

CS Instruments

CS Instruments GmbH & Co. KG with locations in 24955 Harrislee and 78052 Villingen-Schwenningen/ Tannheim, is managed by Dipl. Eng. (FH) Wolfgang Blessing as sole Managing Director.

CS Instruments GmbH was established in the year 2002 by Christian Schuldt and Wolfgang Blessing as equal shareholders/Managing Directors.

Wolfgang Blessing already was sound a specialist on the sector of compressed air technology resp. industrial measurement technology long before the establishment of CS Instruments GmbH in the year 2002. Prior to the foundation of CS Instruments GmbH Dipl. Ing. (FH) Wolfgang Blessing acted for more than 10 years as primarily responsible product manager for industrial measurement technology at a worldwide known manufacturer of measuring instruments for compressed air and gases in the Black Forest. The technical knowledge and experience matched with the long-term practical knowledge was the corner stone for the success of CS Instruments.
