The HeadStart software is used with the Setra Power Patrol meter. This windows based utility allows you to easily configure the meter prior to field installation by powering the device via USB port or checking real-time values before leaving the job site. This tutorial will take you through the HeadStart installation introduction, meter setup tab, communications setup tab, real-time values tab, read/write registers tab, and firmware tab.

Setra's NEW Industrial Catalog

The new 2014 Industrial Product Catalog is a comprehensive guide that contains the technical data sheets for products commonly used in Industrial applications.

• Section 1.1: General Purpose OEM
• Section 2.1: Test & Measurement
• Section 3.1: Sanitary Pressure
• Section 4.1: Accelerometer
• Section 5.1: Barometric Pressure
• Section 6.1: Very Low Differential Pressure
• Section 7.1: Power Monitoring

The sensing and measurement of physical quantities through small changes in electrical capacitance is scarcely a new concept. The natural benefits of this approach were recognized for many years. But it was not until Setra engineers introduced new materials, new designs, and innovative, dedicated circuitry that the techniques full potential was realized in the practical, real world of pressure measurement.

HVAC controls are built around a number of parameters that affect a building’s interior environment; temperature, humidity, air intake, and air exhaust. Reliable inputs are critical to effective control. Setra provides robust, accurate sensors to help you control your air handling equipment with ease, efficiency, and dependability.

Here at Setra we realize that each customer is unique and every application has different requirements that necessitate different features in a pressure sensor. We have the best interests of the customer in mind and realize we may not have the best sensor for a particular situation.

231RS Wet-to-Wet, Differential, Multi-Configurable Pressure Transducer with Armored Jacket

The Model 231RS wet-to-wet differential pressure transducer with remote sensors reduces labor, materials, and time. The differential pressure sensors are installed directly into the pipe and electrical connection is made between the remote sensors and the Model 231RS via cables or conduit, reducing labor cost by one-third and the cost of copper to connect the pressure transducer to the pipe. 

NOW AVAILABLE

Setra Model 3550 - Compact Low Pressure OEM Pressure Transducers

The 3550 is perfect for OEMs that need consistent high levels of performance, reliability and stability because of the units small package size with all 316L stainless steel wetted parts at an unbeatable price performance ratio. A wide choice of electrical outputs as well as both electrical and pressure connections means the unit is suitable for most applications without modifications. 

Setra Systems and DENT Instruments Announce Joint Development Partnership

"The Joint Development is part of Setra’s strategy to expand their energy management solutions offering to their current customer base. The project will leverage the technical, engineering and commercial expertise of the two companies to identify opportunities to innovate and provide solutions for the industry’s greatest challenges. 

When selecting multi-range pressure sensors, there are certain things to be cautious of. Often a "one size fits all" pressure transducer is chosen for expected cost savings and inventory control; however this decision turns out to be a bad idea. Issues arise with inaccuracy and poor stability on low range applications where the range output adjustment is simply pushed too far.
