The SIM-1 SensorSimulator, from GHM Messtechnik, offers engineers working across all sectors of industry a quality handheld device with superior functionality supported by the latest available measurement technology.
“GHM Messtechnik is renowned for its quality measurement offerings,” said Jan Grobler, managing director of GHM Messtechnik SA.
The SIM-1 SensorSimulator is manufactured by Imtron, part of the GHM Messtechnik stable of companies, and a recognised supplier of measurement components and systems for industrial applications in development, manufacturing and testing.
“The instrument measures and simulates loop calibrations on PLC systems with great accuracy,” added Grobler. “Research and development has enhanced the device’s measurement capability, which is compact and easy to operate, protected in a robust silicone case, and offers simulations of various sensors such as strain gauge, Pt100 and TC.”
The SensorSimulator issues various current and voltage signals. With additional return measurement of feed voltage /currents, it can also provide optimal, true-to-the-original simulation of sensors like Pt100 and strain gauge sensors.
The device can be used to compare and check displays and measuring transducers and it has a transmitter and measuring function for voltages and currents, a graphic LCD, compact dimensions and is battery-powered.
“We believe that the introduction of the SIM-1 SensorSimulator to the South African market raises the benchmark in high accuracy measurement testing devices,” concluded Grobler.
