The new SIGMA TCA system has 6 individual sample string with individual flow control and temperature measuring. The system is controlled by the software with extremely user friendly interface run from any browser enabled device (iPad, laptop, smart phone)
All test parameter can be modified if wanted, especially useful for R&D where testing is not according to a specific standard. Furthermore data such as batch no, machine no. Customer name, operator name etc. can be entered, which is valuable to the test report.
Safe and easy
The transperant test chamber allows for easy access while also enabling full visual inspection during test.
The system has non-pressurized water reservoirs ensuring safe operation as well as minimizing maintenance costs. The test system is designed to minimize the volume of pressurized water.
Emergency shut-down systems are installed to ensure a 100% safe operation environment. All doors are locked electronically once the pressure pump is running as a safety feature.
Browser based software – full view
The complete TCA system is operated from a user-friendly browser based software optimized for touch.
The “One page” overview provides full view of all stations. Multiple filtering options. Displaying ongoing tests listed in order ranked according to ‘attention urgency’/ time left to completion. For each station an individual dash board will provide more detailed info on the current status of the test and a graph of current test in real time provides full details about pressure and temperature, enabling zooming in and monitoring current test, directly from the handheld UX device.
Recipe system
The Temperature cycling test – TCA software offers a recipe system enabling quick start and repeat of tests. When parameters are pre-programmed; set pressure, cycle time, specimen type it only takes the operator a couple of clicks to fast and easy start and repeat test. The recipe guide will guide the operator through the parameter setup needed for easy loading and start of test.
Test paramaters
All (most) every test parameter can be modified if wanted, especially useful for R&D where testing is not according to a specific standard. Furthermore data such as batch no, machine no. Customer name, operator name etc. can be entered, which is valuable to the test report.
Accuracy and energy saving
The pressure is delivered by high quality Grundfoss pumps and the system has an automatic water filling and circulation feature ensuring full tank and consistent temperatures. The automatic energy saving system controlled by the SCITEQ SIGMA software delays hot water flow to the cold water tank and visa versa during hot and cold water cycle changeover.
High quality components and an extremely precise electromagnetic flow measurement ensures high accuracy with deviation of only +/- 0,4%.
Testing results are easily transferred to i.e. Excel for further processing.
