- state of the art in infrared moisture meters - superhigh speed in a tiny meter - the economy model      Product's top features: • the fastest moisture meter: True moisture sampling & signal updating speed 400 Hz (2X faster than any competitor). It is holding the record since 1997 when introduced. • the smallest moisture meter in the world: an extremely small size and light weight • a truly compact and smart structure: All components required are in the meter, just plug in the power & communication cable. No external control boxes needed • most reliable: an extremely long service period of 175 000 hours • the preselected measuring distance range is 180 to 380 mm, area approximately 30 x 40 mm. • extremely low noise level • highly immune against external IR radiation and any lighting • highly immune against external water vapor • good immunity to target angle • a unique BURST mode for measuring piecewise webs, like sheet cutters • the meter is delivered complete with cables and software, ready to start operating • three interfaces from a single cable: Voltage output, serial port and Profibus DP     • voltage output, range selectable, scaling     • fieldbus connection (Profibus DP) with full set of features     • serial port RS232 for PC data acquisition and configuration, data rates 9600/38400/115200 bauds • free IRMA7Basic and IRMA7Mini programs using the serial port with full data acquisition features • the PC programs support data acquisition with up to 50 samples/s in normal trend display at 115200 baud rate • memory banks for sample series taken with an autotimer (presettable time intervals) • unique capability of capturing moisture transients at full speed for further analysis (minimum sample interval 2.5 ms) • standardization algorithm built-in for using an external moisture standard. It can be started with a single command via fieldbus or the serial port • purge air inlet • supports the new high-speed serial communications feature • use Low Power Mode when not in active service • aggressively priced, about 30% lower than model D • A strong IP67 box of size 85x125x180 mm, made of 5 mm oxidated Aluminum. • keyboard and display terminal -TE available for field use if no PC around • Model DE has all the unique and useful features as model D does, except the following which have been stripped out:     • No license for the Advanced software -- buy separately     • No power supply -- you need to connect the cable to a local supply +24V and communications     • No Composer expert system -- model DE can be upgraded to model D or use the Composer in the Advanced program     • No IR thermometer -- buy a separate thermometer, no compensation to moisture, though     • No printed manuals, only in PDF form -- buy manuals separately     • No serial communications cable for PC -- connect an extension lead to the cable and solder a standard D9 connector at the end for a PC. You can use as a guideline the model -PS User's Guide schematics, nothing complicated     • Designed for applications with less requirements and with cooler webs/conveyors -- limit to less requiring applications • Buy separately those features you absolutely need, like the software license for the Advanced program. Save bundles of money with this model and spend it to some other useful instruments. • designed and manufactured in Finland Revision 5K in delivery now:     • The new revision is still better for piecewise production lines and requiring high-speed sampling and signal analysis     • The current internal software version is V1.03DAV. To upgrade, contact nearest dealer. Example Applications:     • Wood chips and sawdust: conveyor measurement, container measurement, fast processing machines     • Felts, textiles and non-woven: web measurement, roll measurement     • Paper and board: fast web measurements in dry end of the PM, roll measurements (single points and profiles), sheets and stacks, coating and wetting processes, lab calander nips, printing machines, sheet cutters, sheet printers     • Batch processes: measurement of product batches or piecewise products     • Note papers and other special papers: web quality control, roll quality control, sheet cutters and printers     • Light-coloured minerals: conveyor measurement     • Cut or piecewise materials: Burst mode makes measurement trivial and meter displays only the latest burst average, no gaps       • More.. Optional Accessories:     • General purpose holder bracket -GPH     • Power supply -PS     • Purge air pressure regulator -PR with a dust filter, adjustable     • Double analog voltage output -DAV     • Air purge pump AC0901 with 80 L/min flow     • Air purge pump LA120 with 120 L/min flow     • Hose adapter for air purge can be replaced with a quick connect adapter for standard 8/6 mm air tubing. The thread is G1/4" and is easily changed even in field conditions. No extra cost for this option.     • Keyboard and display terminal unit -TEA for field use     • LAN232 for creating a simple local network for any meters made by Visilab Signal Technologies,     based on RS232 (15 m legs) or RS485 (up to 1200 m legs)     • Moisture standard -STD for regular checking and compensating against dirty glasses     • IR thermometer -IRT for web temperature       • More information..       • Maintenance Pack.. Packing List of a Standard Product Shipping:     • IRMA-7 model DE meter with calibrations according to customer samples plus some other useful ones     • Software on a CD or in a USB memory stick depending on availability, having all of available software options     • an instrument cable of 7 m of length.
