The SI1000 series of panel-mount display/controllers from Solartron Metrology has a compact design and is intended for use with the company's displacement and gauging transducers.
The display/controllers are suitable for a range of laboratory and industrial linear position monitoring and control applications.
The three models in the range offer 'plug-and-play' operation and have a seven-digit red light-emitting-diode (LED) display that can be updated at up to 10 readings per second.
The SI1100 model provides up to 0.1um resolution when used with Solartron's LVDT displacement and gauging transducers.
With 4-20mA and DC inputs, the SI1300 is appropriate where long cable runs are required.
A two-wire loop-powered 4-20mA connection to Solartron's S or SR series displacement transducers, for example, produces a high-performance system that it said to be simple to install.
DC/DC operation is also standard for use with the DC versions of the S and SR models.
The SI1500, meanwhile, is designed for use with digital probes, in particular Solartron's high-performance Orbit-based digital probes, linear encoders and modules.
Communication with PLCs is claimed to be simple, with DC and 4-20mA outputs and alarm relay outputs provided across the range.
RS232 and RS485 serial communications ports are also standard on all models.
With a case size of 48mm x 96mm x 137mm, the SI1000 range is now available from stock.
