STCM - SRV and SRD Smart Thermal Control Module - rheonics viscosity and density

SR-STCM

SRV and SRD Smart Thermal Control Module

  • 5 °C to 120 °C
  • 0.005 °C temp. stability
  • 0.05 °C temp. accuracy
  • Integrated temperature controller
  • Standalone operation
  • Ethernet, Wi-Fi, RS485, USB ports for direct integration
  • Desktop and in-line units

STCM is custom designed to ensure uniform temperature distribution across SRV and/or SRD even when installed in a flow loop with moving fluids. Heating and cooling is achieved through solid-state thermal devices with an advanced model-based controller. STCM was designed after extensive simulation and testing to ensure high level of thermal stability, accuracy and repeatability.

STCM eliminates the need for bulky and expensive thermal test chambers (climate chambers) for temperature control. It reduces the foot print to the same size as a typical small coffee machine while achieving 10x better stability and uniformity compared to a 100L commercial thermal chamber. It enables fluid analysis with SRV in field and mobile units without compromising data integrity.
