November 2011Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Comtest Distribution has announced the launch of the new 750 series documenting process calibrators designed for process professionals in the gas and oil refining, chemical production, pulp and paper; food and beverage and water industries. The 750 series combines all of the process calibration tools into one very powerful instrument that increases troubleshooting and maintenance capabilities.
The multifunction calibrator can source, simulate and measure pressure, temperature and electrical signals. There is no downtime while operators learn a new tool – it can be picked up and used immediately (without training) thus no loss in productivity. The improved screen makes for easier use in the field or dark environments and the improved RTD source accuracy enables more workload.
The 754 pushes the envelope of document process calibrators by providing the ability to maintain and calibrate selected HART transmitters – a key process industry instrument. Process plants rely on smart transmitters so they need calibrators that can communicate via industry standard digital protocols. The 754/753 combines HART communication capability in a documenting process calibrator to deliver an integrated communicating solution.
