A wireless bore gauge (WBG) from Solartron Metrology eliminates the need for cables to download the measurement data.
The standard unit had 2 Orbit inputs but this can be upgraded to 4 or 8 devices such as Digital probe or Solartron linear encoders.
Both memory and maths function have been increased over the previous displays and remote triggering is possible for hazardous environments.
Powered from a 24V source, the SI3500 can be used to display single or multiple readings, a computed result such as A, B, A+B or A-B, (A+B)/2, (A-B)/2, as well as computations with constants for angle measurements for example.
Control is via a front key pad and features discrete inputs and outputs and analogue outputs in the form of 4-20mA or DC voltage.
Additionally the SI3500 offers optional functions such as Peak+ or Peak-, Timed / Sleep mode, Multi-channel display for 4 or 8 probes and other basic SPC maths functions.
