  1. New Report to Help Farmers Improve Poultry (Broiler) House Conditions Through Better Ventilation

    New Report to Help Farmers Improve Poultry (Broiler) House Conditions Through Better Ventilation

    Tesco Future Farmer Foundation Scholarship Winner Christina Hutchings from West Henstill Farm in Devon has just released a new research report: 'Where does all the water go? How a better understanding of Ventilation can be used to improve litter conditions in Broiler Houses'

    Christina’s extensive research for the report was conducted in England, Scotland, Denmark, Holland, and the USA.

    We are very appreciative of the kind words Christina had to say within the report about Tempcon Sales Engineer, Marc Paterson: “Thank you to Marc Paterson at Tempcon who supplied most of my test equipment to me and helped me hugely throughout the process.”
    “Thank you to Marc Paterson of Tempcon, for the endless phone calls over the years, the genuine interest in my project and assistance with the choosing and use of equipment, you have been brilliant.”

    The following is an excerpt from pages 45 to 48 of the report

  2. Use Case: Temperature Monitoring of Investigational Product (IP) for Clinical Trial

    HOBO MX2202 Temperature & Light Data Logger

    A Clinical Trial Supply and Management Services Specialist came to us with the requirement to record readings of room storage temperature of Investigational Product being used in a clinical trial that will last 4-5 years.

    An accuracy of ±0.5 degrees Celsius was required for the thermometer readings.

    The HOBO MX2202 temperature & light data logger was selected due to its cost-effectiveness, accuracy and reliability. The loggers will be calibrated by Tempcon to certify their accuracy.

    About the MX2202

    The HOBO MX2202 waterproof temperature/light level logger leverages the power of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to deliver accurate temperature and light-level measurements straight to your mobile device with the free app. The MX2202

  3. Onset HOBO Rainfall-Streamflow Telemetry System Being Used in Flooding Research

    Researchers from Lancaster University are tackling one of the most pressing problems to face water science in a generation

    After the devastation of the 2007 floods, the UK Government's "Pitt review" triggered initiatives designed to introduce “green”, or natural, flood mitigation (NFM) measures upstream of the affected communities, rather than relying solely on downstream engineering solutions.

    A team of Lancaster University scientists led by Dr Nick Chappell of the Lancaster Environment Centre is leading one of three major NERC-funded projects to quantify the likely magnitude of nature-based flood mitigation effects across large catchments (Q-NFM), by undertaking large scale computer modelling, supported by fieldwork and stakeholder engagement.

    The team are investigating natural flood mitigation measures across several thousands of square kilometres in Cumbria, much of which suffered devastating flooding during Storm Desmond in December

  7. Bluetooth Temperature Logger Protects Magna Carta

    Originally issued by King John in June 1215 to prevent civil war between the king and his barons, Magna Carta has become a world-famous symbol of justice, fairness, and human rights. Having inspired and encouraged movements for freedom and constitutional government for hundreds of years, the four remaining copies of the document have been awarded ‘Memory of the World’ status by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO).

  8. Riverside Housing Association Chooses Tempcon to Supply Temperature and Humidity Data Loggers

    Monitoring temperature and humidity in domestic properties is fast becoming a priority for UK housing associations.

    Damp and mould damage costs housing associations millions in repair bills each year and tenant behaviour represents a significant contributing factor. In houses with high energy efficiency ratings, low temperatures and lack of ‘free air flow’ can result in a build-up of moisture. As energy prices increase, many residents are reluctant to switch their heating on. Understanding the causes of damp and mould is paramount in developing effective prevention strategies. Using Data Loggers provides surveyors and housing associations with the necessary data to identify specific causes and in turn can be used to support appropriate prevention strategies.

  9. DATA LOGGER HELP INVESTIGATE MOISTURE DAMAGE

    Bourne, MA (PRWEB) April 22, 2014 - 100 Onset HOBO® Temperature and Humidity Loggers Automate Moisture Sampling Process Provide Over Two Million Measurements during Five-Month Study.

    Onset, a world leader in data loggers, today announced that forensic architectural construction consulting firm Richard Avelar & Associates (RA&A) has used 100 Onset HOBO temperature and humidity loggers to identify additional sources of moisture damage in a wood-framed apartment complex.

    The monitoring project, which ran for five months, was aimed at investigating unexplained causes of moisture damage, wood decay and fungal growth found behind cladding and sheathing in certain ground-floor walls throughout the large complex.

  10. SELECTIVE CATALYTIC HYDROGENETION

    Xiaolei Fan - lecturer in Chemical Engineering at The University of Manchester, used our micro-thermocouples to investigate Selective Catalytic Hydrogenation in a Structured Compact Multifunctional Reactor. The results demonstrated that the structured compact multifunctional reactor might be a promising technology to transfer conventional heterogeneous catalysis to flow regime.

    Abstract
    Selective hydrogenation is an important class of chemical reactions for the production of speciality chemicals, pharmaceuticals and petrochemicals. The challenges in this type of reactions are to control selectivity in hydrogenation of poly-functional molecules, and avoid the possible risk of reaction runaway due to the high exothermisity. In this project the fundamentals
