Beamex MC6 Advanced Field Calibrator and Communicator
The Beamex MC6 is a high accuracy multifunction field calibrator and fieldbus communicator for process instrumentation. It calibrates pressure, temperature and a range of electrical signals and it includes a full communicator for HART FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus PA instruments so one device can replace several single function tools in the field. It documents calibrations automatically and works with Beamex calibration management software supporting a fully digital paperless calibration process. Beamex of Pietarsaari Finland launched the MC6 in 2012.
Key Features Beamex MC6
- Multifunction calibration: measure, generate, and simulate pressure, temperature, and electrical signals in one unit
- Built-in field communicator: configure and troubleshoot HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Profibus PA devices (some functions are optional)
- Six operating modes: Meter, Calibrator, Data Logger, Documenting Calibrator, Communicator, and Settings
- Documenting Calibrator mode: automated, guided, and documented calibration of process instruments, with results stored on the device
- High accuracy: each MC6 is delivered with a traceable accredited calibration certificate as standard and has specifications for both short term accuracy and one year total uncertainty
- Large 5.7-inch touchscreen: a 640 × 480 color TFT display that works with bare fingers, gloved hands or a stylus, with a multilingual interface and an adjustable LED backlight
- Calibration software integration: communicates with Beamex CMX and LOGiCAL calibration management software for a fully digitalized process
- Guided procedures: automated routines for common calibration tasks
- Field-ready build: a rugged design with a 1 m drop test rating and use at altitudes up to 3,000 m
- Variants: the MC6 Ex is an intrinsically safe version for hazardous areas (approved to Ex ia IIC T4 Ga for Zone 0) and the MC6-T combines the calibrator with a temperature dry block
- Standard delivery: the calibrator, an accredited calibration certificate, and a user guide, with a soft carrying case as an optional accessory
Typical Applications
- Calibration of pressure, temperature, and electrical process instruments
- Calibrating and configuring HART and fieldbus smart transmitters
- Loop checks and troubleshooting in process plants
- Pharmaceutical, oil and gas, power, and chemical industry calibration programs
- Documented, paperless calibration for compliance
Why Choose It
The Beamex MC6 combines a precise calibrator, communicator and documenting tool in one rugged unit. Technicians carry fewer devices, complete calibrations faster, and capture results digitally at the source.
