Test Benches

Pressure Test Benches

Calibration is critical to the measurement integrity of your equipment. For this reason, GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies has developed a specialist capability in modular calibration systems. Custom-engineered, these workstations include both furniture and calibration equipment.

Efficiency will increase and cost will decrease when the required job can be performed in an ideal working environment. Any workshop will directly benefit from these workstation solutions, from the hostile environment of the offshore oil & gas industry to desalination plants, from refineries to power generation plants.

Features

Our test benches solutions are designed with Flexibility and Modularity in Mind.

Furniture

  • Our furniture is made from high quality chipboard with a melamine resin coating which is scratch and heat resistant and is not affected by most fluids found in a workshop environment. Conductive (ESD) or beech wood versions are also available.

Pressure

Calibrators/Indicators/controllers:

test-bench2

  • We can integrate virtually every pressure calibrator and controller into our systems. Depending on your demands and application we will select the best possible solution.

Low & High pressure control Panels:

  • These panels are widely used in the industry for general application where regulated test pressures are required. One or more pressure ranges can be combined in one panel.

Pressure generation:

  • A wide range of handpumps, pneumatic, hydraulic or combined and comparison test pumps are available for simple pressure generations. Pressure can be achieved within the range from –1 to 1000 barg. For higher workloads, GE can supply a compressor system or air-driven booster systems. If absolute pressures or vacuum is required, GE offers a wide range of quiet vacuumpumps, including a frame for mounting them under the table top.

Electrical

Process calibrators:

test-bench3

  • Various process calibrators can be offered for simulating and measuring RTD’s, thermocouples and resistance, as well as sourcing and reading milliamps, millivolts, volts and frequency.

Mains and Plug Socket modules:

  • The Mains Power Supply Units are used for power supply, fuse protection and switching the benchtop units on and off. Plug socket modules are available in various configurations with SCHUKO, CEE, BS, USA and other sockets.

Variable AC& DC Power Supplies:

  • The adjustable AC supplies are available in various ranges with analogue or digital volt and current meters, floating or non floating output, 1 phase or 3 phase and special motor test versions. AC/DC supplies provide continuous adjustable AC-supply from zero volts upwards and can be switched over to DC. A variable ratio transformer with rotary knob is used to set the voltage. The DC supply has a ripple of 48%.

Other electrical modules:

  • Soldering-desoldering modules, Panel mount versions, either separate or combined, including integrated vacuumpump and digital display, adjustable within the range of 150 °C – 400 °C.
  • Oscilloscopes, frequency counters and generators, decade boxes, digital multimeters, continuity tester, timers and all kinds of electrical modules, commonly used in the workshop can be integrated into the system.

Temperature

Dry-block calibrators:

  • Various models to cover temperatures from -45°C below ambient to 1200°C available as a stable source or complete calibration system. These innovative calibrators combine a highly stable temperature source with precision measurement of temperature probe signals, providing a truly stand-alone temperature calibrator suitable for laboratory, workshop and portable use.

Temperature baths:

  • For testing and calibrating large size probes and/or large quantities simultaneously, temperature baths can offer a good and stable solution. Various ranges are available and can be integrated into the worktable or as a stand alone unit.

Temperature Indicators:

  • High precision reference standards are available to calibrate your process instrumentation. Accuracies up to 0,05 °C and ranges between –200 to 1300 °C are possible

Thermocouple and RTD probes:

  • To complete the temperature measurement and calibration section, we offer a wide range of robes in various qualities, accuracies and ranges.

Calibration Management

  • Once you have a complete system, fulfilling your hardware requirements to perform your test, measurement and calibration job in the best possible way, your process can be further improved by connecting it all to one Calibration Management system, A u t o C a l®.
  • A u t o C a l® is a powerful management tool for anyone with responsibility for ensuring that devices are calibrated in line with today’s quality guidelines such as ISO 9000, environmental standards, systems validation and safety guidelines

Applications

  • Our modular concept is designed with flexibility and expansion in mind. We offer complete systems from simple workbenches to complex applications featuring automatic calibrations using AutoCal calibration management software (ISO 9000 compliant).
  • The calibration modules are comprehensive and are suitable for applications with conventional and state-of-the-art instrumentation. Furthermore, most instruments can be supplied with calibration certificates traceable to international standards.
  • Our systems are typically used for the testing and calibration of pressure, temperature and electrical process instruments such as transmitters, switches, gauges, signal converters and temperature sensors
