PIE 820 Multifunction Process Calibrator

Features

• Lighten up your toolbox
  Pocket sized calibrator replaces toolbox of single function devices
  Milliamp • Voltage • Frequency
  Thermocouples • RTDs • Check Continuity
• Technician friendly operation
  Intuitive EZ-DIAL Double Click Menu makes it easier to setup than other multifunction calibrators. Uses the same menus as the single function PIECAL Evolution Calibrators.
• Use it as a milliamp and voltage calibrator
  Source 0 to 24.00 mA, 0 to 10.25 V dc and -10.00 to 110.00 mV
  Read to 24.00 mA, ±60.00 V dc and and -10.00 to 110.00 mV
  Simulate 2-Wire Transmitters
  Power up transmitters & loops with the built-in 24 V power supply.
  Simplify HART hookups with built-in 250 Ohm resistor
• Calibrate directly in temperature (°C & °F)
  The PIECAL 820 works with the instruments you use.
  Types J, K, T, E, R, S, B, N, G, C, D, L (J DIN), U (T DIN) and P
  (Platinel II)
  Pt 100 Ohm (3850, 3902, 3916, 3926) & 1000 Ohm (3850)
  Copper 10 & 50 Ohm, Nickel 100 and 120 Ohm
• Checkout flow and vibration systems
  Source & read frequency to 2000 CPM (Counts-Per-Minute), 999.00
  Hz, 9999.9 Hz, 9.9999 kHz & to 20.000 kHz
• Troubleshoot loop & wiring problems
  'Beep' out connections with the built-in continuity checker
• Easy to read
  Turn on the backlight & easily see the display in dark areas of the plant
• Quickly set any three outputs plus automatic stepping & ramping
  Easily set any value quickly with the adjustable "DIAL" plus store any three output settings for instantrecall with the EZ-CHECK™ switch. Choose between 2, 3, 5 & 11 steps to automatically increment the output in 100%, 50%, 25% or 10% of span. Select RAMP to smoothly increase and decrease the output between Zero and Span. Set step/ramp time to match your system from 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 60 seconds.
• Measure temperature sensors, frequency pickups, loop currents and voltage levelsCheck the values of your process sensors. Instantly recall MAX and MIN values to see process variability

Advantages of the PIECAL 820 over the Altek 820

• Automatic stepping & ramping
  Setup 2, 3, 5 & 11 steps or continuous ramp from 5 to 60 seconds to match your test procedures
• Larger Display with Backlight
  Easy viewing in dark locations
• More Resistant to Accidental Damage
  Rubber Boot and Stronger Switches
• More Thermocouple &RTD ranges with 0.1° resolution and better accuracy
  Compatible with smart transmitters, multichannel recorders, PLCs and DCSs (the Altek 820 RTD output is not compatible with many smart transmitters and system input cards)
• Smaller & 25% lighter
  Pocket sized and easier to carry
• LED for optical pickups
  LED flashes green in synch with frequency output. Illuminates red for overload conditions.
• Prices
  The Altek 820 costs $2,384.42 - You save $689 and get a better product, along with the promise of a 2 year quibble free warranty.
