Description:
The BetaGauge II is a two-channel pressure calibrator,
with interchangeable modules for measuring a
variety of pressure ranges and DC electrical signals.
The BetaGauge II becomes a documenting calibrator
when used with our versatile, menu-driven, PC-based
ProCAL Software. Used together, they can create a
centralized database, with a history for every pressure
instrument and pressure I/O loop in your plant, with
minimal guesswork and data entry. The BetaGauge
II’s RS232 port also permits use with key software
programs from manufacturers like Cornerstone,
Honeywell Loveland, Emerson AMS, and others.
The BetaGauge II uses two independent, hotswapable,
fi eld changeable pressure modules,
available in a wide variety of pressure ranges to
redefi ne calibrator versatility. Changing ranges is
as easy as plugging in new input modules, which
can be done even while the unit is powered up. The
BetaGauge II automatically recognizes the signals
and assigns them to the proper channel. This plugin
design simplifi es maintenance, too. The base unit
needs no recalibration; only the input modules do.
That means you never have to be out of service —
you send only the out-of-calibration modules back to
the shop, while continuing to use the BetaGauge II in
the fi eld. For optimum mechanical strength, external
pressure connection is made by a 1/8” FNPT 316SS
connector welded to a stainless steel metal plate.
The BetaGauge II is supplied with a standard
voltage/current input module, an external battery
pack (NiCd, rechargeable) and trickle charger, test
leads, manual, carrying case, and 9-pin D shell serial
cable.
