Multiplexed- Low-Level Function Card
-
Low-level multiplexed systems have a single programmable gain, wide-band amplifier following the input multiplexer. To accommodate low-level signal signals such as those from strain gauges or thermocouples and at the same time high level signals from other sources, the throughput rate must be limited to enable the high bandwidth amplifier to settle to the correct value after switching to a new channel. This results in a relatively low aggregate throughput rate when compared to an amplifier-per-channel system. A major benefit of a well designed low-level multiplexed system is the extremely high performance/cost relationship.

ARTES Automatic Relay Test Systems
-
The purpose of power system protection is to use accurate and reliable protection devices to detect faults promptly and without fail and to minimize impairments to the power supply by selectively switching off faulted sections of the system.The use of suitable protection devices can significantly improve the safety and reliability of complex electrical power systems and installations. Regular testing is the only way to ensure that these protection devices function correctly throughout their operational life.More than 20 years of experience in developing and manufacturing automatic relay test systems have gone into creating the third generation of ARTES test instruments. Back in 1996, KoCoS was the first company to present Windowsbased testing software for controlling and operating test equipment and the company continues to play a pioneering role in the design of clearly structured and ergonomic user interfaces today.

Magnetic Level Gauge Switches
-
ABB's magnetic level gauge switches for point level alarm and/or control can mount to a KM26 magnetic level gauge or an LS Series cage level switch.These switches are completely isolated from the process fluid as they are magnetically activated by a magnet equipped float (KM26) or attraction sleeve (LS Series). The unique magnetic coupling action eliminates seals, diaphragms, springs, and torque tubes common to other level switching alternatives since there is no physical contact with the process fluid. The magnetic coupling also eliminates process connections to the switch; therefore, no isolation valves are required to block off the switch for maintenance. The switch "set point" is easily adjustable without changing any process piping and the result is a more reliable and easier way to maintain level system.
