Intecal Software From GE Sensing Simplifies Calibration Management
BILLERICA, MASSACHUSETTS, NOVEMBER 4, 2005 — Keeping field
instruments calibrated and in peak operating condition just got easier
with Intecal, the calibration
management software from GE Sensing. Engineering technicians can
now improve efficiency and equipment utilization, by automatically
scheduling calibration requirements, generating calibration procedures
and documenting the results. Fully compatible with GE’s entire Druck
and Ruska lines of instruments or any device using the FCINT (field
calibrator interface standard), Intecal is specifically designed for
managing laboratory instruments and portable calibrators used to validate
process plant instrumentation.
“Intecal provides our customers with an off-the-shelf software package
that integrates with our extensive line of test and calibration
equipment, including our laboratory digital pressure controller/calibrators
and our portable calibrators used in the field” says Jim Henke, product
manager, “This new package greatly simplifies creating repetitive
calibration procedures and also interfaces with popular digital multimeters
to monitor the device under test. Customers can significantly increase
automation in their calibration process, saving valuable time and
money.”
Intecal users will benefit from being able to rapidly automate, manage and streamline the workload for testing and calibration of most any type of pressure sensor, transducer, transmitter, gauge or instrument. Calibration schedules, procedures, results and certificates are stored in one place for easy access and secure archiving. Technicians can reduce calibration time by up to 50% with an Intecal software driven platform in comparison with the use of other, standalone, digital pressure controllers which require recording DUT readings manually.
