Dazzling New Bargraph with PT-100 Sensor

Metrix with our partner Orbit Controls are very pleased to announce the latest in their line of programmable bargraphs.

After much success with the OCB201 and OCB301 programmable bargraphs for process signals, Orbit Controls are now introducing the same winning bargraph with PT-100 temperature sensor.

OCB201 and OCB301 are programmable bargraphs with 20 or 30 Bar Segments.

The OCB-201-PT and OCB301-PT versions are designed for panel mount for connection to Pt-100 temperature sensor with two or four terminals and permit visualizing of the temperature process. The three colours can be free distributed across the entire bar length. The intensity of the bar can be set between 20% and 100% to permit visibility under different lighting conditions.

The temperature range will be factory calibrated in accordance with the customer requirement and can be selected from -20ºC to +850ºC.

The parameters are entered by using three keys behind the front lens. The menu contains assigning of the input signal to the bar length, selection of the bar colours and settings of two Set Point Relays.

OCB301-Pt permits setting of two Set Points SP1 and SP2 with Relays 5A-230VAC, SPST.

The Bargraphs are supplied from 18-36VDC and can be used for horizontal or vertical mount. Also the reading direction from left to right or down to up can be selected.

New Product Notice – BA6010 Series Battery Analyzers

As official UK partner of B&K Precision for over 15 years, Metrix Electronics Ltd is delighted to offer our customers a series of new battery analyzers ideal for evaluating modern battery technologies during the manufacturing process, incoming inspection and throughout the battery life cycle.

The series features two models, BA6010 and BA6011, which measure battery voltage and internal resistance with high accuracy, resolution, and speed. Model BA6011 supports voltage measurements of battery packs up to 300 V whereas the BA6010 features a 6 V measurement range ideal for battery cell testing. Both models are equipped with an intuitive front panel featuring navigation keys, numerical and function keypads, a USB host port, a 4-terminal input connection and a large 4.3 inch color LCD that displays primary and auxiliary measurement parameters.

Additionally, a number of built-in functions give users added flexibility. For example, a comparator function evaluates measurements against a user specified upper and lower limit for pass/fail (Go/No Go) style testing. A trace function samples and plots the battery primary and secondary measurement readings over a specified time. Also included with both models are RS232 and USB (USBTMC and virtual COM) interfaces for data logging and remote control, a handler interface and an external BNC trigger input to facilitate production automation.

The BA6010 Series is suitable for characterizing battery chemistries including lead acid, lithium and alkaline type batteries used in consumer products, electric vehicles, power backup, security, and alarm systems. Furthermore, these models are reliable, cost-effective solutions.

Short leadtimes for Medium Voltage current transformers by MBS of Germany

CTS24M32-T narrow CT 24kV

Metrix with our partner GMW is proud to offer Medium Voltage current transformers up to 36kV from the famous MBS range.

GMW realized most of the companies that they acquired as new clients in Germany had endured massive problems with

  • long delivery times of their previous suppliers and consequently problems with meeting project deadlines.
  • lack of support in customer service guiding and advising on the perfect technical solution.
  • finding reliable partners that can assist the project process through a supplementary product range of electrical measurement appliances as well as low-voltage products.

Consequently GMW had an enormous increase in medium voltage transformers sales as it is able to meet exactly these demands.

The number one reason being the fact that GMW-MBS is the fastest producer and supplier of medium- voltage transformers in Germany
(delivery time for medium voltage transformers approximately 4 weeks/ industry standard 8-12 weeks).

Moreover GMW’s client friendly reputation based on individual technical service and international expertise helps it in building trust to new customers in the field of medium voltage transformers.  And Metrix now brings this support and trust to UK customers specifying Medium Voltage current transformers.

The comprehensive GMW range of panel instrumentation, low voltage CT’s and shunt helps it to support with related, compatible products if needed.

We hope you will let Metrix help you with your next Medium Voltage current transformer project – email [email protected]
