Controls suit refrigeration or heating
Flexicold is a software function that automatically adapts to changing working conditions of a refrigerator unit, for example if warm products are placed in the fridge or a door is opened frequently.
With an accuracy of +/-0.5 to +/- 0.09C over a temperature range of -10 to +125C or 28 to 400C, depending on the model chosen, the ETC series is designed for use when time is the major factor and the highest accuracy is not so critical.
A heat up and stabilisation time of only three minutes enables a temperature verification routine to be completed in under 10min.
The ETC incorporates the standard Jofra RS232 communication interface and easy to use Amecal-Light calibration software, which come installed, as standard and ready to use.
The heating block incorporates a novel design where the predrilled insertion holes for the temperature devices on test are located around a highly efficient element.
Unlike other calibrators there is no removable insert tube so reducing bulk and speeding heat up time.
There are two models in the series; the ETC 400A designed for optimum speed and stability and the ETC125A, which at an entry level price of around GBP 800.00 is a simple and effective temperature checker, also suitable for below ambient temperatures such as air conditioning.
The easy to use controls incorporate 'one-key, one-function' so providing fast operation and doing away with the need to follow complicated menus.
For the first time high accuracy temperature verification comes at an affordable price.
