Environmental Measurement Systems & Accessories
Environmental measurement systems are ideal when research or manufacturing conditions need to be maintained at exact parameters.
The LCS Precision Climate Station is a stand-alone environmental measurement system capable of precisely monitoring air temperature, surface temperature, humidity and air pressure. The sensors are easily interchangeable, and the system is factory calibrated.
Typical applications include measuring and calibration rooms, industrial manufacturing, development labs, and OEM applications.
The demand for high‑precision measurements continues to grow across scientific research and industrial applications. As components and structures become increasingly miniaturized, precision machinery is required to perform ever more sophisticated tasks. This is especially true in fields such as electronics manufacturing, the semiconductor industry, and modern mechanical engineering.
In industrial environments, however, measurements are often taken outside ideal laboratory conditions or optimized metrology rooms. Monitoring environmental influences therefore becomes critically important. Even slight variations in temperature, air pressure, or humidity can distort measurements and compromise accuracy. To achieve results that are precise, reproducible, and reliable, it is essential to track these environmental parameters with high fidelity. Doing so ensures that measurement data can be properly assessed, compensated when necessary, and protected against avoidable errors.

Fast air temperature sensors - The PT-100 air temperature sensor with enhanced dynamic properties
To improve the precision and responsiveness of air‑temperature measurements—particularly for interferometry and machine calibration—a new high‑dynamic‑response temperature sensor has been developed. The primary demand for this innovation comes from machine‑tool calibration and other laser‑interferometry applications, where the need for ever‑greater accuracy continues to grow. In laser interferometry performed in air, the main limiting factor is the ability to determine the air’s refractive index with high precision, and this index is strongly influenced by air temperature.
There is also a rising need to place temperature sensors on moving components, such as measurement reflectors mounted on mobile stages. Tracking rapid temperature fluctuations with sensors in motion, especially in environments without climate control, presents a significant challenge for sensor dynamics.
