SCITEQ SIGMA pressure solution determines the resistance (both long term and short term) to internal pressure on thermoplastic pipes, fittings and assemblies for conveyance of fluids,
complying with following test standards and equivalent:
SIGMA PowerPack module
Pressure source feed to all SUB (pressure) modules with 5 or 10 pressure outlets. The pressure outlets are seamlessly performing static, step and burst testing used for both R&D purpose and batch release testing. Various models available incl./excl. output for optional BURST modules. With built-in high pressure pump and 10 micron inlet filter.
SIGMA SUB module
Provides 5 or 10 independently operating pressure stations up to max. 100 or 160 bar. Semi-automatic individual pressure transmitter calibration through integrated main transmitter is optional. Built-in fast reacting valves for precise pressure control.
SIGMA BURST module
Provides one linear burst pressure station up to max. 200bar within 60-70 seconds. Built-in fast reacting high flow and pressure valves for fast and precise pressure control. Requires PowerPack module with output for BURST module.
SIGMA HCP3 module
Provides three independently high volume operating pressure stations up to max. 100bar regulated pressure output. Built-in fast reacting valves for precise pressure control.
DPCS – Dynamic Pressure Control System
SCITEQ’s intelligent Dynamic Pressure Control System ensures that test pressures are maintained with unparalleled accuracy no matter what size sample is connected to the system. Static, burst and step testing can all be accommodated.
Flow per station: max. flow 2 l/min (max. flow 15 l/min for burst). For other valve flow and power pack flow configurations, refer to the SCITEQ HCP solutions.
The built-in alarm light instantly alerts the operator visually in case of irregularities in the ongoing test.
The browser-based SIGMA software is accessible from any device – any time, anywhere. The advantages are among others:
The fast and extremely easy to use interface enables easy operation and control of few as well as many simultaneous pressures tests with features such as dynamically adjusted finish time, full station overview and click less maneuvering.
Recipes are quickly set-up, saving time when starting up a new test (diameter) as well as repeating saved test parameters. Up to four different user-levels from Basic to Advanced, ensuring not only easy operation, but also offering simultaneous ‘view-only’ access for your interested partners and clients.
