PACE 1001 Precision Barometric Indicator and Recorder
The new PACE 1001 precision barometric indicator brings together the latest measurement technology from GE to oer an
elegant, fast, exible and economical solution to barometric indication & monitoring.
PACE 1001 Barometer employs digitally characterized pressure sensors which oer the quality, stability and precision
associated with this latest generation of resonant devices.
The PACE1001 Barometer oers three levels of precision to accommodate specication and budget requirements, optional
external IDOS universal pressure modules can be connected to add more pressure measurement capability.
The colour touch screen display of the PACE 1001 Barometer can be congured by a user to indicate pressure measurement
simultaneously from up to three sensors either graphically or numerically.
The measurements displayed can be logged to an internal memory over a customized time period, sample rate and trigger
ready for replay on the display, can also be saved to a USB storage device or exported to a PC.
Pressure sensor measurements can be re-transmitted via one of the communication ports.
The Aireld task is supplied as standard with the PACE1001 Barometer and enables the user to display QFE, QFF or QNH in
pressure units or as altitude in feet or meters.
PACE 1001 Barometer Options
Leak Test
Leak Test measures leak rate over the measure dwell time.
At the start of the test, the instrument measures the applied
test pressure of the user system. The instrument records the
pressure change during measure dwell time. On completion the
display shows the leak rate results, with leak rate per second or
per minute in the current pressure units selected.
Switch Test – standard with the Analogue Output
or Voltage Free Contacts option
Switch Test automates the testing of pressure switch devices.
Following the test, displayed is the pressure at which contacts
open and close and the switch hysteresis. Switch Test task can
also be set to capture switch toggle max, min and average
values.
Analogue Output
The Analogue Output can be programmed via the setup menu
screen to output a signal proportional to the instrument range
selected. This allows the instrument to interface with PC or PLC
I/O cards, remote displays, chart recorders or other data logging
equipment.
Users can select outputs of 0 to 10 V, 0 to 5 V, -5 to 5 V and
0/4 to 20 mA. Precision with respect to host instrument
measured pressure 0.05% FS over the host instrument
operating temperature range, variable update rate to 80
readings per second. The option is programmable between
minimum and FS pressure for proportional output against
pressure.
Volt Free Contacts
Volt Free Contacts enable control of peripheral devices such
as vacuum pumps, ovens, etc. Each VFC option has three
independent volt-free NO/NC relay contacts. A number of
conditions can be set within a PACE1001 instrument to trigger
a relay toggling its contacts.
