Pressure calibrator gets even more features
Mensor's 'revolutionary' APC600 pressure controller continues to undergo development and a number of new features have been announced ahead of the 2006 Farnborough Air Show
Multivariable calibrator for use on and off site
Product offers simultaneous generation and measurement for accurate and easy transducer/calibration with accuracy figures as good as 0.03% on temperature or up to 0.01% on pressure (range dependent)
New range of portable digital pressure gauges
Calibration Dynamics announce the availability of a new range of hand held, portable, battery powered, digital pressure gauges for use on and off site
Users can specify pressure ranges from as low as 0 to 25mbar through to 0 to 100bar, while pressure can be displayed in any engineering unit including user-definables.
Low pressure controllers can incorporate on-board pressure generation Single or dual channels are available, each channel having up to two transducers which in turn can have two calibrated pressure ranges, giving a maximum capacity of eight pressure ranges in a single APC 600.
Accuracy is 0.01% of each pressure range and the controller is fully auto-ranging, while pressure stability is as good as 0.001%.
The APC is a dynamically temperature compensated from 15-45C.
This intuitive instrument incorporates programmable sequences, where users can program and store many calibration profiles on board for simple recall and execution while user configurable pressure 'ceilings' protect instruments under test from over-pressurisation.
The display, unique to Mensor, is a full colour touch screen control panel which allows the user to navigate easily around the PC based controller.
The innovative user-removable reference transducer modules can be extracted easily for calibration or service, and harness the capability of interchanging with the same or different ranges.
The APC600 controller can communicate via RS232 and ethernet protocols as standard making it simple to embed into ATE systems.
Optional extras include rack mounting kit, GPIB/IEEE-488 interface, external calibration kits for transducer modules and barometric reference for absolute mode operations.
With compact dimensions and weighing less than 12 kilos, the APC600 is claimed to be the most feature packed and transportable instrument of its type commercially available.
This cost effective product has applications in the process, laboratory, engineering and manufacturing industries and can be used for the testing of transmitters, transducers, pressure relief valves, gauges and switches.
