Universal calibrator with powerful battery /
Transducer for simulation and measurement / Generation of increments / Extensive measurement and simulation functions
The process calibrator PCE-MCA 50 is designed for calibration and maintenance. This process calibrator enables the measurement and simulation of electrical quantities. Due to the battery operation, the process calibrator PCE-MCA 50 can be used in different locations. The measurement functions offered are a versatile measuring instrument that can be used in many areas. Depending on the application, the process calibrator can run for up to 17 hours per battery charge. The measured results can be stored on the internal measured value memory. This offers a capacity for up to 15000 values.
The process calibrator offers the possibility of generating and measuring DC and DC. The operation of the process calibrator is carried out in a simple manner via nine keys installed on the front. Likewise, test leads and thermocouple can be connected. The process calibrator performs measurement functions, voltage and current simulations, as well as a continuity test. The measured values can be read off the large LC display.
