Process Calibrators
Features:
- Voltage/Current
- Frequency, Resistance, Temperature, Pressure
- Source or Simulate
- Produce calibration reports
- Some Can Store Data
- HART ™ Foundation Fieldbus ™ Profibus ™
- Intrinsically Safe options
The benefit of multifunction process calibrators is their ability to read and source a number of input and output signals such as voltage, current, frequency and resistance. Since these signals are so common in process applications, this ability allows using multifunction process calibrator to calibrate most process instruments.
Things to Consider When Selecting a Multifunction Process Calibrator:
-
What type of signal is used by the equipment you wish to calibrate?
-
What measurement parameters do the units under test have?
-
Where will calibrations take place? The lab? The field?
-
What level of accuracy is needed?
-
Are any communication protocols needed?
-
What types of adapters, if any, are needed to attach the unit under test to the calibrator?
-
Is a calibration certificate needed? Which one?
