Built-in Field Communicator

MC6-T includes a field communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 and Profibus PA instruments. All protocols are modular, so you can choose the ones you need, and you can also add protocols later on as the requirements arise. With the help of the built-in communicator, you can configure and trim/adjust your smart instruments with a single MC6-T without the need to carry a separate field communicator with you. The communicator includes built-in loop supply and required impedances for the communications, so there is no need for separate power supply or impedances.

Stability control adds confidence in temperature calibration

In temperature calibration, stability is a very important feature. Temperature changes slowly and the user must be sure that the readings are stable. MC6-T follows the stability and 2 sigma standard deviation of the temperature measurements and makes sure that only reading that are within the stability requirements are being used. This takes the guessing out of the picture and adds confidence in calibration, ensuring the best calibration uncertainty even for a novice user. The stability control is used for the reference sensor as well as the sensors to be calibrated

Advanced safety features

The MC6-T includes several advanced safety features. The unit has a red indicator light whenever the block is hot, as well as indication in the display. For safety reasons the MC6-T660 units has a tilt/orientation sensor. This will warn the user if the unit is tilted so much that calibration uncertainty is jeopardized. Also, it will switch off heating and turn on the fan if the unit is tilted too much, or if it falls on side. There is also processor independent stand-alone overheat protectors that will prevent overheating.

Short and sanitary sensor calibration

In some industries, such as food and beverage and pharmaceutical, short and sanitary temperature sensors are used. These kinds of sensors, sometimes provided with a flange, are difficult to calibrate with traditional temperature dry-blocks. The MC6-T150 is designed so that it enables the calibration of short and flanged sanitary sensors. A dedicated insert used together with a special very short reference sensor with flexible cable. The cover of the block includes grooves for the reference sensor cable, allowing a sensor with a flange being accurately calibrated.

External Controllers

MC6-T supports communication with external temperature and pressure controllers. It can be used to automate temperature calibration with another (Beamex models or selected nonBeamex models) temperature block. For example, use it with your Beamex FB temperature dry block to extend the temperature range. Or use MC6-T to control your existing temperature block to automate the calibration process. Also, MC6-T can be used to automate pressure calibration by controlling an external pressure controller, such as Beamex POC8. This enables automatic calibration of various pressure instruments with MC6-T.

Internal rechargeable battery

MC6-T includes an internal rechargeable battery pack. This unique feature allows you to use all other functions, except the temperature control, without mains voltage. For example, you can use the process calibrator functionality, field communicator, or communication with software, without the need to have mains power available.

Carry Less

Being a truly multifunctional device, the MC6-T can replace a large amount of conventional single-function devices. MC6-T includes a temperature dry block, temperature calibrator, electrical calibrator, pressure calibrator, multibus field communicator, loop supply, note pad, and many more. Using MC6-T allows you to carry less.
