Reliable CAN Measurement Technology
CSM’s Thermo MiniModules (THMM) allow precise distributed temperature measurements with K-, J- and T-type thermocouples: ideal for measurements in the powertrain, on HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning) components, in the vehicle interior, the powertrain development and many more.
Thanks to the extremely low power consumption, THMM modules have an extremely low temperature drift. These modules provide highly accurate measurement results over the entire operating temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C. The compact and robust module housings allow direct mounting in the engine compartment or invisible mounting in the vehicle interior.
The TH8 evo measurement modules offer the support of TEDS according IEEE 1451.4 standard for easier configuration of the used sensors.
These modules feature an internal cold junction compensation per channel. The socket contacts are made of the same material as the corresponding thermocouple. This minimizes interferences caused by temperature differences and ensures an extremely good accuracy over the entire operating temperature range.

Modules for temperature measurements with increased accuracy requirements in comparison to measurements with thermocouples: PT MiniModules (PTMM evo) allow high-precision temperature measurements with PT100 and PT1000 RTD elements.
CSM’s AD MiniModules of the AD CAN MM (MiniModule)-Series offer a wide range of applications for measuring analogue signals (voltage, current, pressure, flow rate, etc.).
Temperature measurements play an important role in all development phases: from individual components up to the complete system. Temperatures are always an important factor in further increasing efficiency and driving comfort. Proven for years, CSM thermal measurement modules enable efficient temperature measurements in the entire vehicle in all development stages. CSM’s temperature measurement modules are ideal for use in the lab or in the field for mobile tests in the vehicle. With CSM temperature modules all common sensors like type K, type J or type T thermocouples as well as PT100 and PT1000 sensors can be used.
Numerous measurement variables in vehicle development and testing can be recorded with sensors that reproduce their respective measured variable as an analog voltage. For example, distance, pressure, flow rates, moisture, vibration and noise can be easily measured.
