March 2, 2024 - Vista, California - Axiom Test Equipment, an electronic test equipment rental and
sales company has published a new blog post that covers the way calibrators offer
the precision needed to evaluate in-process testers and how they can securely deliver
test results to a control center to effectively manage an industrial process. For
effective process test equipment calibration, a calibrator must be a source of precisely
controlled parameters as well as a highly accurate measuring tool for evaluating
the same parameters. A calibrator must often inject a parameter, such as voltage,
current, pressure, or temperature, into the process equipment under test to determine
the condition of the equipment.
Traditionally, data transfers to and from a calibrator were handled by dedicated
communications equipment. But growing demand for mobility and portability in calibrators
capable of in-field use has resulted in calibrators and communicators often within
the same package. When equipped with suitable communications interfaces, such as
Ethernet or Bluetooth, calibrator/communication devices can quickly and seamlessly
make their connections to the process equipment to be tested as well as to a control
center.
Automated industrial manufacturing processes have many built-in measurement devices
to ensure the processes run properly. The units keep track of parameters important
to the processes, such as temperature, pressure, voltage, current, resistance, and
frequency. They communicate conditions to a central controller where data can be
analyzed to optimize an industrial process. But time takes its toll on these testers,
and they must be regularly calibrated to effectively support an industrial process.
Fortunately, calibrators offer the precision needed to evaluate in-process testers.
Aided by communicators, they can securely deliver test results to a control center
to effectively manage an industrial process. In some cases, calibrators and communicators
come in the same package, often small enough to be held in one hand for on-site
measurements.
For effective process test equipment calibration, a calibrator must be a source
of precisely controlled parameters as well as a highly accurate measuring tool for
evaluating the same parameters. A calibrator must often inject a parameter, such
as voltage, current, pressure, or temperature, into the process equipment under
test to determine the condition of the equipment. As a calibration source, it must
provide each parameter with precision and stability to support fine tuning of the
industrial process equipment. As an analyzer, it must be capable of the accuracy
and repeatability needed to maintain a process within well-defined limits. A calibrator
often requires bidirectional communications capability to transfer test data acquired
from the process equipment to a control station.

Ethernet or Bluetooth, calibrator/communication devices can quickly and seamlessly
make their connections to the process equipment to be tested as well as to a control
center. Multifunction calibrators are often equipped with multiple communications
interfaces, including Ethernet, USB, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi interfaces, to simplify
transfer of measured process data from a remote calibrator to a control station
for managing the test results.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail"
when a new message arrived...
