May 2016Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
VEGA has introduced a new display and calibration module, PlicsCom with Bluetooth, which makes the adjustment of sensor parameters that much easier.
Equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 technology, users can now make adjustments without having to uninstall the sensor or even remove the housing cover. This means adjustments can be made from a safe working area up to 25 m away, eliminating the need to climb up high silos in dangerous conditions or to operate in hazardous areas.
With no wiring necessary, adjustments are made using a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth low energy technology. Simply download the VEGATools app which is available on IOS and Android platforms. The layout of the application follows the same logical process as PACTware.
If the sensor is accessible, a magnetic pen allows contactless adjustment right through the viewing window of the closed lid. The instruments are thus always well protected against bad weather and soiling.
The magnetic pen operation and Bluetooth communication offer another advantage: costly and involved authorisation for working in hazardous areas is not necessary. However, the best feature is the backward compatibility, which means that the Bluetooth PlicsCom can be used on the entire installed base of VEGA plics sensors, many in operation since 2002.
