As with the original high accuracy BetaGauge PI
gauges, the BetaGauge PIR takes the concept of a simple analog Test Gauge and
combines it with the accuracy of digital technology. The new Reference Class
gauges provide exceptional performance with +/-0.04% of reading accuracy, especially
when operated below 50% of their range.. The Reference Class BetaGauge PIR digital
test gauges are available six ranges - 30 PSIG Compound, 30 PSIG, 100 PSIG,
500 PSIG, 1,000 PSIG, and 3,000 PSIG. Setup of the BetaGauge PIR is fast and
straightforward, through a menu-driven display, with minimal text and intuitive
functions, that is simple enough to allow the gauge to be used anywhere in the
world without the need for multilingual displays.
Pressure readings are displayed in any one of
18 standard engineering units, or in user-defined custom units, eliminating
tedious conversion calculations. Readings are displayed on a 5-1/2 digit, 0.65”
high digital display and companion percent-of-range bar-graph. Accuracy is temperature-compensated
over a 0 to +50 Deg C range. The internal temperature sensor measurement can
be displayed in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
The BetaGauge PIR provides an unmatched feature
set, offering the user many options for ease-of-use. The reading sample rate
can be adjusted to match the type of measurement, such as for pressure switch
threshold points, instrument-grade readings, filtered readings, and a power-saving
1 reading per 2 seconds “sleep” mode. A MIN/MAX function instantly
recalls pressure reading extremes. In addition to a Zero function, large residual
system pressures can be nulled using the TARE adjustment.
When combined with custom engineering units, the
TARE adjustment allows the BetaGauge PIR to be used in a variety of liquid level
and volume measurements, easily reading units of interest directly, such as
gallons in a tank. Password-protected field calibration may be initiated through
the keypad. An auto shutoff feature may be enabled for a preset interval to
extend battery life. Damping can be set to integrate readings to accommodate
pulsating sources, such as plant air.
An RS232 port allows pressure reading data to
be extracted directly from the gauge for off-line analysis. A protective rubber
boot is provided as standard to help protect the gauge from damage if dropped.
A number of options are available for the BetaGuage PIR Digital Pressure Gauge
making the gauge suitable in virtually any application. An optional 24 VDC external
power input is available for applications where the gauge will be permanently
installed or used continuously. A self-contained calibration kit is available
which includes a BetaGauge PIR, hand pressure pump, and associated fittings.
