GENERAL PERFORMANCE
The portable indicator - simulator
UniCal mA
is an instrument designed to perform, in a modern and
practical way, all the most popular process current check-outs and calibration, both in laboratory and
field work.
The current signal levels are those normally used on instruments, components and systems for
industrial process control.
Accurate, compact, rugged, easy to use the UniCal mA represents the ideal solution for measurement
and simulation inside both passive and active external circuits with five different modes of operation:
- Generator mode
-
Simulator mode
- Normal measuring mode
-
Loop powered measuring mode
- 24V dc power supply
The microprocessor technology provides high accuracy on extended ranges and carries out
mathematical computation (average, scale factor, square root) to simplify operator use.
The selection of operating mode is made on a polycarbonate membrane keyboard which assures up to
one million operations per key.
The measured or the simulated value is indicated on a high quality LCD dot matrix display which
provides good contrast even in poor light conditions.
A menu-driven set-up allows the generation of a single value, and the storage of three values with
manual recall .
A manual repeat measurement is also possible (<
STEP
> key).
The case, made of shock-resistant and self-extinguishing ABS, is ergonomically designed for easy and
practical operations.
The instrument is powered by four Ni-Cd rechargeable batteries AA (1,25V) with an external battery
charger supplied as a standard accessory.
