Solartron Metrology has designed the SI 3000 range of transducer controllers, which provide a clear graphical display of single or dual channel inputs.
An IP65 rated front panel provides a high resolution, seven digit colour LCD display.
Bar graphs can be set to change colour when measured values are out of range for either transducer or the sum of their inputs.
The seven digit display enables high resolution to be achieved when used with long absolute displacement transducers and even higher resolution when precise positioning or measurements are required.
Data logging of up to 10,000 readings is available and other functions include peak hold, presets, simple mathematics and max-min values.
The intuitive menu-driven display makes setting up and operating the instrument easy.
The SI 3000 series can accept inputs from many types of dc and 4-20mA transducers, for example pressure, force and temperature or third party LVDT transducers.
Outputs include dc, 4-20mA and RS232 interfaces.
The units can be used in the automotive, aerospace, steel production, process automation industries and the test and measurement sector.
Where more channels are required, Solartron offers the higher specification SI 7500 controller, which can accept up to 16 digital probes or modules.
This advanced model provides SPC support and offers a suite of mathematical functions.
