The
DCS system is a complete rack-mounted calibration station capable of
producing a flow of air
(or nitrogen) at a pre-specified range of dew-point temperatures
from a minimum of -100°C (-148°F) to a maximum of +20°C (+68°F).
Through customization the DCS system can be PC controlled for
automated calibration sequences or manually operated at pre-determined
dew-point
set points.
When ordering this system, simply specify the
required operating range, and Michell Instruments will determine the
most economical way to
construct your calibration system.
Product Features
- Complete dew-point calibration solution with optional compressor, dryer, dew-point generator, reference instrument and optional manifold
- Generated output responds quickly to a change of set point
- Stable humidity generation
- Simple operation through manual flow mixing or push-button switching of set points
- Remote control via RS232 comms (dependant on model)
