Signal amplifier stores calibration certificate on board

QuantumX is claimed to be the first amplifier with its calibration certificate stored in its memory, making it permanently available so it can be loaded at any time. The amplifier includes software that enables the calibration certificate to be seen and printed in PDF format.

When the amplifier is recalibrated, HBM stores the new certificate in the amplifier's memory, along with all previous calibration certificates. Users can therefore see a particular amplifier's calibration history at any time.

The QuantumX multifunctional eight-channel amplifier offers a wide range of connection options: strain gage and inductive transducers can be connected, as well as analogue voltage and current signals, frequencies, pulses and temperatures or digital CAN signals. The calibration certificate specifies the test values for all relevant quantities, giving extensive documentation of the amplifier's behaviour. Analysis includes computation of the linearity error and, in addition, an OK/NOK evaluation indicating whether the amplifier complies with the manufacturer's specifications.

All amplifier serial numbers and all references used for calibration are specified to comply with ISO 9001 requirements.
