Open the catalog to page 1
The impossible made possible: combining advanced functionality with ease-of-use Beamex MC6 is an advanced, high-accuracy field calibrator and communicator. It offers calibration capabilities for pressure, temperature and various electrical signals. The MC6 also contains a full fieldbus communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA instruments. The usability and ease-of-use are among the main features of the MC6. It has a large 5.7" color touch-screen with a multilingual user interface. The robust IP65-rated dust- and water-proof casing, ergonomic design and light weight make it...

High-accuracy, advanced field calibrator and communicator Accredited calibration certificate as standard Each MC6 is delivered with a traceable, accredited calibration certificate as standard. The certificate includes calibration and uncertainty data from the calibration laboratory. The calibration laboratory’s Scope of Accreditation can be found on Beamex’s website (www.beamex.com). Summary of accuracy figures The MC6 has specifications for short-term accuracy and for 1-year total uncertainty. Brief summary of the accuracy figures: • Pressure accuracy starting from ±(0.005 FS + 0.0125 ...

USER-INTERFACE MODES 1. Meter The meter mode is designed for simple and easy measurement of signals. Oftentimes, you may need to measure something quickly and easily. Often a simple multi-meter is used for this purpose, as it is easy to use. Some multifunctional calibrators may be too slow and difficult to use, so it is easier to just choose the simpler meter. The meter mode in MC6 is optimized for this type of simple and easy metering. 2. Calibrator The calibrator mode is designed for calibrating various process instruments. Oftentimes, you need to check and calibrate a certain process...

4. Documenting calibrator The documenting calibrator mode is designed for the process instrument calibration and documenting of the calibration results. In today’s process plant, calibrations often have to be documented. Without a documenting calibrator, documentation must be done manually, which takes a lot of precious time and is prone to error. The documenting calibrator mode in MC6 is optimized for use as a documenting process calibrator. 5. Communicator The communicator mode is designed to communicate with Fieldbus instruments. In today’s process plants, smart instrumentation is being...

Full multi-bus field communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA instruments Communicator The communicator mode is a full multi-bus communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA instruments. All of the communicator electronics for all protocols are built into the MC6, including internal loop power supply with various required impedances for different buses, which means there is no need to use any external loop supply or resistors. Multi-bus communicator The MC6 communicator can be used with all types of fieldbus instruments, not only pressure and temperature...
