Chart recorder DS 500 - Intelligent chart recorder for compressed air and gases Measurement - control - indication - alarm - recording - evaluation Advantages at a glance: • Clear layout: 7" colour screen with touch panel... • Versatile:Up to 12 optional sensors can be connected • Suitable for industrial applications: Metal housing IP 65 or panel mounting... • Data available through world wide web: Network-compatible and remote transmission via webserver • Mathematical function: for internal calculations • Totaliser function: for analogueue signals • ...saves time and costs during installation DS 500 - the intelligent chart recorder of the next generation Recording of the measured data, indication on a big colour screen, alerting, storage, not to mention remote read-out via webserver... this is all possible with DS 500. All measured values, measurement curves and threshold value exceedances are indicated. The curve progressions from the beginning of the measurement can be viewed by an easy slide of the finger. The big difference to ordinary paperless chart recorders reveals in the easy initiation and in the evaluation of the measured data. All sensors are identified directly and powered by DS 500. Everything is matched and tuned. Mathematical function for internal calculations, e.g. the typical figures of a compressed air system: • consumption of single lines including summation Totaliser function for analogueue signals (e.g. 0/4…20 mA, 0…10 V). In case of third-party sensors which e.g. only give a 4...20 mA signal for the actual flow in m³/h, a total counter reading in m³ can be generated by means of the totaliser function. No time consuming studying of the instruction manual... this saves time. Internal voltage supply of all sensors, no wiring of external mains units ... this saves additional costs.

Chart recorder Measured values, statistics, curves with the 7" colour screen with touch panel Actual measured values All measured values can be seen at a glance. Threshold value exceedances are indicated in red color. A „measuring site name“ can be allocated to each sensor. Graphic display This display replaces the former evaluation of ordinary paper chart recorders and offers lots of advantages. The time axis can be moved by a finger slide. The „zoom function by finger movement“ which enables an analysis of peak values is unique. Actual measured values and graphic Additionally to the measurement...
