Reliable and accurate in-process oven temperature profiling for the
finishing, paint and powder coating
industries.
   
 
Datapaq offer two standard temperature monitoring systems: the OvenXL and EasyTrack2. We also offer custom systems to suit your individual application. All Datapaq systems comprise a data logger, a thermal barrier, Insight software and thermocouples.
 
     
  OvenXL system
Simply the best
EasyTrack2 system
Profile your oven the easy way
  Custom systems comprise a data logger, a thermal barrier, Insight Software and thermocouples.
 
 
Datapaq is the undisputed world leader in the development and manufacture of temperature measurement systems used in the paint and powder industries. No one equals the ruggedness and accuracy of the system components or the power and ease of the Insight software.

All Datapaq oven temperature profiling systems are designed to travel through an oven with the product that is being cured, measuring the true product temperature throughout the process. At the heart of the system the data logger, which records the temperature profile of the product, is protected from the heat of the oven by a thermal barrier. Afterwards the critical product temperatures are analyzed with Insight software, providing detailed reports at a single click.

Thousands of customers worldwide use Datapaq systems in the automotive, powder coating, 2&3 piece can, fabric and many other industries to optimize product quality, reduce rejects and prove process control for ISO9000 and other quality procedures.


 

Components

Thermocouples – improved design

Thermocouple probes are an essential part of a Datapaq Oven Tracker system. They are placed at critical points on the product to give a clear profile of the temperature throughout the process.

All Datapaq probes conform to the highest standards (ANSI MC 96.1 Special Limits of Error) and provide the most accurate data possible. Improved probe cables make them durable and flexible. The quad-wrapped, 10 strand 36 AWG (0.125mm), PTFE and metal braid coated probe cables last significantly longer than previous designs.

The probe is further improved by a stronger 'crimped' plug/cable attachment and a circular cable cross section to reduce kinking and twisting. The color of the cable conforms to the IEC584 color standard for Type K thermocouples - green.

No one makes a more robust probe.

NEW ‘MicroMag’... goes where no probe has gone before

MicroMag, Datapaqs latest innovation in surface and air magnetic thermocouples, makes it even easier to collate and analyse temperature profile data than ever before.

With a 17mm (0.7”) state of the art Samarium Cobalt magnet, low thermal mass and an easy to handle aluminum knob, the MicroMag can be quickly and efficiently attached to ferrous substrates. Despite its compact size, the magnet strength guarantees secure attachment at the highest temperatures experienced within the paint and powder coating industry.

Features

17mm (0.7”) diameter
Samarium Cobalt magnet
Low thermal mass 
Removable aluminum knob 

Benefits

Small footprint, low profile for hard to reach or narrow places
Secure setup on uneven, contoured or tight surfaces
Ensures accurate product temperature measurement
Fits into very tight places

Standard Magnetic Type K Probes
From magnets to bevelled PTFE head, these
probes are durable, rugged and accurate.
UPDATED Clamp Type K Probes
Easier robust handling with wider opening jaws.
Heavy Duty Type K Patch Probe
Ideal for substrates with poor heat transfer properties, features rapid response time of 1 sec.
