Rio Rancho, NM (March 18, 2010) – Alta Data Technologies (Alta) announces the release of a MIL-STD-1553 54mm PCI ExpressCard (ECD54-1553) interface card that can support one or two dual redundant MIL-STD-1553 channels (networks).  The ECD54-1553 card provide many industry-first features, including a rugged thumbscrew, low profile connector, an A/D signal capture and full 1553 signal generator. The PCI ExpressCard 1553 supports Windows™, Linux, RTOS and LabVIEW™ and is the only PCI ExpressCard products that can run and execute the SAE AS4111 5.2 RT Validation tests, can operate as full Bus Controller (BC), multi Remote Terminal (mRT) and Bus Monitor, and provide advanced Signal Capture.  Click here to read more…

New from GE Sensing

Advanced Modular Calibration System Modularity brings a whole new perspective to multi-function test instruments and calibrators.

The Advanced Modular Calibration System uses three basic components to provide the multi-functionality to perform duties formerly requiring a wide range of different instruments.

At the heart of this system is the DPI 620, an ultra-compact electrical, temperature and frequency calibrator, which provides simultaneous measurement and source capabilities. It integrates with pressure modules and pressure generation stations to form uniquely capable pressure test and calibration systems.

Product Description

The Advanced Modular Calibration System uses three basic components to provide the multi-functionality to perform duties formerly requiring a wide range of different instruments:

• Its basic component is an ultra-compact, electrical, frequency and temperature calibrator, which provides simultaneous measurement and source capabilities.
• Pressure measurement is provided by interchangeable pressure modules that can be attached to the calibrator by a pressure module carrier.
• If pressure generation is required the calibrator and pressure module can be attached to one of three pressure generation stations, to form a fully-integrated pressure calibrator, of unparalleled performance.

Suitable for

• Plant and process engineers
• Service companies and site contractors
• Installation and commissioning engineers
• Laboratory technicians

Service Types

• Calibration
  • In-House
  • On-Site
• Repair
  • In-House
  • On-Site
• Evaluation

System features

• Modular concept provides greater flexibility
• Re-range during use
• Expand over time
• Adapt by application
• Allows significant inventory reductions
• Simplifies user training
• Reduces cost of ownership

Multifunction calibrator

• Accuracy from 0.0025%rdg + 0.002%FS
• Measure, source and simulate mA, mV, V, ohms, frequency, RTDs and thermocouples
• HART communication
• Easy-to-use, with video quality touch screen
• Hand held PC version with Windows CE
• USB and WiFi IEEE 802.11g connectivity

Pressure measurement

• 25 mbar to 1000 bar/10 inH2O to 15000 psi
• Accuracy from 0.005%FS
• Fully interchangeable modules with no need for set-up, calibration or tools

Pressure generation

• Advanced pressure generation
• - 95% vacuum to 20 bar pneumatic
• - 95% vacuum to 100 bar pneumatic
• - 0 to 1000 bar hydraulic
• Stand-alone pressure stations can replace hand pumps and can be used as comparators

Applications

• Instrumentation installation, commissioning, maintenance and calibration
• System measurement and monitoring
• Indicator, recorder and controller testing
• Process loop set up and diagnostics
• Switch, trip and safety system testing
