TOUCH CONTROL TWELVE MEASUREMENT THERMAL PROFILER

M.O.L.E.ยฎ EV12 thermal profiler delivers the power and immediacy of touchscreen thermal profiling control in a 12-channel data logger. Bridging the gap between six- and 20-channel M.O.L.E. EV models, the M.O.L.E. EV12 addresses specific applications that require nine to twelve thermal measurements. M.O.L.E. EV12โ€™s full-color touch display enables process calculation templates, profiles, and pass/fail results to be observed directly on the device. No PC download is required for profile viewing. All M.O.L.E. EV-series profilers have Bluetoothยฎ wireless connectivity, deliver higher sampling rates with greater accuracy, and support multiple thermocouple types.
