7526A Precision Temperature/Pressure Process Calibrator

Introducing the 7526A Precision Process Calibrator Value proposition Typical applications Key features & benefits Product overview Product features Summary specs Options & accessories A “best fit” for process instrumentation calibration

7526A Value Proposition Balances precision and versatility with cost The 7526A is less expensive than high-end multi-product calibrators, yet more precise and versatile than handheld field calibrators Calibrates wide ranging workload 7526A The 7526A meets the needs of labs that cannot fund higher priced instruments while providing the precision required to get the job done More precise than handheld process calibrators Less expensive than high-end multi-product calibrators like the Fluke 5080 ($13k) Poor man’s calibrator Versatility, precision & value The 7526A offers an isolated measurement channel allowing it to precisely, and simultaneously, source and measure temperature & electrical parameters. Pressure measurement can be viewed in both displays in different units of measure.

7526A Key Features & Benefits Improved thermocouple accuracy Can calibrate Documenting Process Calibrators (2:1 TUR) and nearly all handheld temperature & pressure calibrators Switch test (unique to 7526A) Increased workload. Not every temperature source, such as a drywell, includes a switch-hold function. Pressure sources do not. Simultaneous source and measure Calibrate more DUTs in less time. See results of an adjustment immediately. MET/CAL® Calibration Software compatible Write automated procedures, create reports. Value Costs less than a DPC, highly versatile, precise but competitively priced.

7526A Product Features STBY/OPR In Standby mode, changes to the output value are not applied until you select the Operate mode In Operate mode, each change to the output value is applied immediately Voltages more than 30 V are not applied. The mode automatically reverts to Standby for safety In Thermocouple mode, move through the thermocouple types (including millivolts) In RTD/Ohms mode, move through the RTD types (including ohms) In Pressure mode, move through the pressure units 1) STBY/OPR is a safety feature that prevents unwanted application of source voltage Select a secondary function from the numeric keypad

7526A Product Features HART Enables a 250 Ω internal resistor Without the loop resistance in place, the DC power supply would “short out” the communicator’s AC voltage signal The presence of a loop resistor in the circuit prevents the DC power supply from “loading” the AC voltage signal by the communicator. Some minimum loop impedance is needed so that the HART signal can be ‘seen’ or ‘read’ by a HART master, like a HART communicator or HART modem. ∿ ∿↓ ↓ HART transmitter HART communicator 250 < R < 1100 Power supply Computer “HART” is an acronym for Highway Addressable Remote Transducer. Superimposes digital communication signals [frequency shift keying (FSK)] on top of the 4-20mA signal; does not interfere with the analog signal. Enables two-way field communication to take place. Additional information beyond the normal process variable (P.V.) is communicated to/from a smart field instrument. LOOP PWR Turns on an internal 24 Vdc power supply in series with the current measurement circuit Used to power 4 – 20 mA transmitters
