Forum 1: Looking for project partner sensors and controls
Ulrich Bonne (ulrich.bonne@honeywell.com) on Monday, February 3, 2003 at 09:37:22
Company: Honeywell International, as represented by two entities: 1) Sensing and Control (formerly Micro Switch Division), and 2) Honeywell Laboratories
Capabilities: R&D on sensors and controls >Productization, packaging, networking and manufacture of sensors
URL: www.honeywell.com
Looking_for: Partners who either: 1) Want to lab or field test NeSSI-II assemblies, who would thus design an installation, install a NeSSI assembly provided by Honeywell, monitor and evaluate the data from this test and validate estimated process savings attributed to the deployment of NeSSI assemblies and/or 2) Want to develop a modular sensor for eventual mating to a std. SP-76 NeSSI footprint and can bring to the partnership their own 50% cost-share. NeSSI assembly is described in a White Paper to DOE. It is a modular, plug-and-play assembly of components to sample and sense process streams. NeSSI = New Sampling/Sensing Initiative, which originated at CPAC (Center for Process Analytical Chemistry).
