Applications
Process engineers can use the METRACAL MC as a calibrator and a
multimeter simultaneously, e.g. in order to simulate sensor condi-
tions at the input of a transmitter while measuring and saving the
output signal.
If the USB X-
TRA plug-in infrared interface adapter (accessory) is
attached to the instrument, measurement and calibration results
can be uploaded to a PC, where they can be recorded and
printed out as a calibration report. The multimeter can also be
used as a data logger. METRAwin

PC software
(accessory) allows for convenient evaluation and display of
measurement data, and METRAwin

90-2 (accessory) can be
used to create ramp and interval sequences, to control the
METRACAL MC online, as well as for the generation of calibration
certificates.
Calibrator with Loop Current Measuring Instrument
Universal Calibration Standard
Integrated electronics generate mV, V and mA signals. Beyond
this, they’re capable of simulating thermovoltages for various
types of thermocouples for predefined temperatures (°C or °F), as
well as for various Pt and Ni temperature sensors.
Frequency Generator
Continuous frequency signals can be transmitted by the
METRACAL MC for testing SPCs, energy metering devices, flow
rates and more. Amplitude and frequency are adjustable for the
generated square-wave pulses, which are used to simulate sen-
sor pulses.
Calibration and Simulation
Measuring transducers with a wide variety of input signals
(voltage, thermovoltage, RTD and 2-wire resistance sensors etc.)
can be directly connected and calibrated. If a multimeter is used
(e.g. METRAHIT XTRA), respective values can be measured at the
measuring transducer’s output, transmitted to a PC via an
adapter if desired, displayed with the help of METRAwin

software and compared with the appropriate calibration
specifications. Setpoint values and actual values are displayed, or
printed as a certificate. When operated in the “mA sink” mode,
the METRACAL MC simulates a 2-wire transmitter and retrieves the
selected current value from the measuring sequence.
Measurement Data Memory (16 MBit / 46,000 Measured Values)
The calibrator is connected to a PC with the attached USB X-
TRA
interface adapter (accessory). The software METRAwin

, which is available as an accessory, and the interface
adapter USB X-TRA are used to transmit recorded measured val-
ues to a PC by means of the multimeter function for convenient
subsequent visualization, evaluation and report generation.
