QAL3 Master

Product catalog summary

Product Overview: The QAL3 Master automates the QAL3 procedure according to EN14181 for monitoring connected measuring systems. It provides early warnings through automatic detection of drifts and decreasing precision, with alarms that are visual and sent via email. The system automates data acquisition and computation, allowing for semiautomatic evaluation of devices when coupled with the MEAC2000 emission computer. It also documents the measuring system life cycle in a maintenance log and integrates management of test equipment.

Performance Features: The QAL3 Master regularly reads QAL3 data from AMS and CUSUM computations, issuing alarms when drift or precision is exceeded. It provides QAL3 readings for each component of an analyzer and allows the complete AMS of a measuring task to be combined, reducing effort. The tool offers convenient access to measured data and evaluations, operates as a stand-alone tool, and is compatible with all SICK equipment with SOPAS capability and devices with analog connections (4-20 mA) using the MEAC2000 emission computer. It ensures reliable saving and archiving of measured data in a database and offers comprehensive documentation for AMS quality assurance.

Areas of Application: The QAL3 Master is used for quality assurance of Automatic Measuring Systems (AMS) during operation and can connect with dust monitors and gas measuring devices from SICK.

System Components: The system includes the QAL3 Master software, driver, database, server, and client, which can be installed on several or one PC running Windows XP/2000/7. A maintenance log is maintained over the life cycle of the maintenance system, with automatic detection of events such as the start and end of CUSUM computation procedures, reading modifications, and test equipment changes.

Automatic and Manual Entry of Events: Events can be automatically or manually entered into the maintenance log, including the start and end of CUSUM computations, reading modifications, and test equipment changes. Manual acquisition allows operators to enter events concerning a measuring component.

Functions and Connectivity: During operation, the QAL3 Master processes all control measurements initiated manually or automatically. It can be configured to send automatic email alerts when drift and precision tolerances are exceeded. The QAL3 Client displays all QAL3 data and evaluations, configures the QAL3 Master, inputs new QAL3 values, maintains the warning log, and performs semiautomatic evaluations of devices connected via the MEAC2000. The QAL3 Client can be installed on any workplace computer connected via network to the QAL3 database.

Semiautomatic QAL3 Evaluation: For devices monitored with an analog connection to the MEAC2000, signal patterns are recorded during adjustment measurements. Users must select QAL3 measured values semi-automatically on the QAL3 client.
