Already claiming one of the most extensive ranges of pressure controllers available, Calibration Dynamics will showcase its Automated Pressure Calibrator Series 600 at the forthcoming MTEC exhibition
Incorporating the very latest in technological advances with innovative design, Calibration Dynamics says this product is transforming the market as we know it.
The APC600 is feature packed and establishes a new standard in flexibility.
One precision pressure regulating channel is supplied as standard but two independent channels can be placed in one APC 600 which allows two totally separate calibrations to be performed simultaneously; and as each channel has its own regulation unit, a high and low pressure channel can occur in the same instrument.
Factor into this that there are two interchangeable transducers on each channel and two ranges on each transducer and you have up to eight ranges provided on just one unit thus allowing the user to calibrate a wide range of pressure devices.
Each range is accurate to +/- 0.01%FS and full temperature compensation keeps this controller operating at its best while user programmable sequences ease use even further.
The innovation does not stop here; transducer modules can be quickly and easily removed for calibration or service.
Calibration configuration data is stored on each module, which provides the capability of interchanging one transducer with another of the same, or different ranges.
Therefore spare modules can be interchanged with current modules virtually eliminating precious down time during calibration cycles.
The APC 600 boasts a colour touch screen providing an intuitive user interface that greatly reduces the operator learning curve.
This makes it an incredibly easy tool to master and put to work in a production or lab environment.
This user interface can also be configured into 17 different languages.
New to the product is the Virtual Delta Channel option which enables rapid calibration of differential pressure ranges at elevated static pressures.
With high accuracy on measurement and up to 10ppm stability on pressure control, this product makes light work of an otherwise arduous task.
An ingenious software system controls all of the functions of the APC600.
It consists of a single board computer, disk module, power supply and communication ports.
Remote communications can be achieved via IEEE-488, RS 232 or True PC ethernet allowing global access to your readings.
The software, stored on the disk module can be easily updated by simple replacement so service and maintenance is kept to a minimum and your system evolves alongside the ever changing advances of today's technological environment.
All of this incredible spec and a warm up time of less than 15 minutes! The APC600 really is setting the standards of tomorrow, today.
And if accuracy is your issue then Calibration Dynamics offers the Model 8100.
Utilising quartz resonator transducers this unit can provide extremely high accuracy with excellent long term stability to within 0.007%FS with ranges up to 100bar.
Incorporating many of the latest technological advances and innovative design features of the APC 600, the 8100 sets the standard for laboratory grade pressure controllers.
However, if range is your need then it has the high precision pneumatic pressure controller, series APC 800.
This instrument has a range of up to 400 bar with a control stability of up to 0.001%FS and an accuracy of up to 0.008%.
Available as either desk top or 19inch plug in cases, these controllers have outstanding control performance due to unique control valve technology and a pressure sensor with very high long term stability.
This ensures rapid and harmonic pressure control without any overshooting while the straightforward structure of the menu guarantees ease of use and a user friendly display further complements this.
Dual range options are also available.
Many of these products can trace their lineage to the still revolutionary PCS 400.
Designed to be used in automated test systems or on a test bench this unit offers fast response and minimal overshoot via its solenoid-type regulator.
This regulator combines with the pressure transducer to ensure a reliable pressure measurement/control module, while protected by a relief valve to minimise the possibility of damage from over pressurisation.
With a 0.010% FS accuracy, ranges from 0.36 to 2000 psi and up to 30 readings per second available in 38 selectable units, the PCS400 still offers reliability, versatility and usability all together in one affordable package.
