Portable Hand-held Signal Simulators/Calibrators with Laboratory Equipment Accuracy
Diagnose sensor signal integrity or calibrate sensors using MTI Instruments’ portable and ruggedly designed signal simulator products.
Our Signal Simulator product line offers affordable, laboratory precision in a field ready package.
Having a Precision Portable Signal Simulator and Calibrator is a must-have for engineers and technicians working in a variety of fields – from routine troubleshooting and maintenance, to calibrating and tuning advanced equipment such as eddy current probes, strain gauge amplifiers, or charge amplifiers for jet turbine vibration analysis.
Features
- Portable and Rugged – features a rugged, but ergonomic, design that lets you bring laboratory-grade precision into the field.
- Signals – Dual Voltage, Single Current Loop, and Single Charge Mode in both Single Ended and Differential Forms.
- Waveforms – Custom, Sine, Square, Triangle, Pulse, Tachometer, and Sawtooth from 0.1Hz to 100kHz n 0.1 Hz increments.
- Jog Function – Vary the signal amplitude in increments to determine system gain, or vary the signal frequency to determine filter response.
- Sweep Function – Customizable time, voltage or charge.
- Bridge Circuit Simulation – Easily command microvolts to simulate strain gauges.
- High Accuracy – Voltage and charge signals with accuracies to 0.05%.
- Versatility – Build your own applications using common SQL queries.
- Light and dark modes to accommodate user preference and lighting conditions.
- Languages supported: English; additional languages coming soon.
- UI designed with color vision deficiency users in mind.
- A/B channels are color mapped for ease-of-use.
- Annual calibration plans available to help meet NIST regulatory requirements.
