Vaisala is working with a range of power utilities, maintenance providers and asset owners to bring the first commercial units of its Optimus DGA Monitor for Transformers online.
Vaisala’s upgraded OEM dewpoint
transmitter, the DMT152, withstands
high temperatures while controlling
low humidities. The compact sensor
is said to be an even better fit for
applications such as plastics dryers and

Techmark, developers of custom air-handling systems that monitor, control and distribute air to specification in potato storage facilities, recently worked with a major North American snack food processor to improve the process quality of its chip potatoes shipped by rail.
“Approximately 50 percent of power transformer faults can be detected with the right online monitoring tools, meaning that severe failures can be prevented. But nobody wants monitors that give false alarms or require regular maintenance. So we created a product that does not,” explains Vaisala Controlled Environment product manager Juhani Lehto.
Building on unique technology, the Vaisala Optimus(TM) DGA Monitor for Transformers solves many current problems in transformer maintenance.
Vaisala has introduced a carbon dioxide meter for applications with higher CO2 concentrations, such as cold storages and fruit and vegetable transportation and storage. The Vaisala CARBOCAP Carbon Dioxide Probe GMP251 measures from 0 to 20 %CO2.
Vaisala humidity and pressure sensors are heading for Mars, incorporated in instrumentation built by the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
Vaisala has introduced two new temperature and carbon dioxide transmitter models in its GMW80 series – GMW84 and GMW84S with current outputs. The company now offers a full range of CO2 wall sensors for HVAC applications.
Vaisala has released six new models in the GMW80 CARBOCAP carbon dioxide, temperature, and humidity transmitter series.
