New fluke 744 doc. process calibrator * * msrp 5,995 usd
Fluke 744: Two sets of TL24 industrial test leads, two sets of AC20 test clips, one set of TP20 test probes, a BP7235 battery pack, a BC7217 battery charger, an instruction manual, NIST-traceable calibration report and data, and three year warranty. Every 744 includes a serial port cable, HART communications cable and a DPC/TRACK Sample, which includes utilities to upload calibration data to a PC and export to PC data files.
The 744 offers all of the capabilities of the powerful Fluke 743B, plus the ability to maintain and calibrate selected HART transmitters without a second tool.
As more and more process plants begin to take advantage of smart transmitters, the need for a new generation of calibrators has emerged-calibrators that can communicate via industry standard digital protocols.
The 744 combines HART communication capability with the popular 740 Series Documenting Process Calibrators to deliver an integrated communicating calibrator.
This rugged, reliable tool is ideal for calibrating, maintaining, and troubleshooting HART instrumentation.
* Integrated HART communication functions, permitting you to monitor, control, and calibrate HART instrumentation.
* NiMH battery with 3500 mA hour life and gas gauge.
The first field calibrator for HART instruments that's both powerful and easy to use.
The 744 offers the most complete HART implementation of any process calibrator. The 744:
* Requires no external box or second tool for everyday HART calibration and maintenance.
* Offers fast HART communication.
* Supports popular models of HART transmitters, with more devise-specific command support than any other HART field calibrator.
* Fully complies with the Data Link Layer of the HART protocol, including multiple masters, burst mode, and multi-drop configurations.
* Is easy to update as additional instruments are added and new HART versions are released.
* Is based on the 743B, the most rugged, reliable multifunction field calibrator available.
* Is backed by the service and support of the Fluke organization, a member of the Hart Communications Foundation.
The 744 is designed to take on nearly all the day-to-day tasks you now perform with a separate communicator. In fact, it offers the communication capabilities of the 275 HART communicator except for the DD interpreter, which can read command set libraries from any HART supplier. This is not necessary for daily HART maintenance.
* Generate precision electrical, temperature, or pressure signals for analog stimulus or sensor simulation.
* Simultaneously measure electrical, temprature, or pressure signals from transmitter output.
* Determine type, manufacturer, model, tag ID by interrogating HART devices.
* Read HART PV function and smart transmitter digital output while measuring analog mA output.
* Read and write HART configuration functions to make field adjustments to PV range points, damping, and other top-level configuration settings.
* Re-label smart transmitters by reading and writing HART tag and message fields.
* Clone additional transmitters by reading and storing basic HART configurations.
* Perform automated HART sensor trim and output trim for selected devices in conjunction with As Found/As Left tests.
* Perform loop test with simultaneous analog and digital mA readout.
* Address new, fast, pulsed-excitation smart transmitters and PLCs.
Whether you are calibrating instruments, troubleshooting a problem ,or running planned maintenance, the multifunction Fluke 743 Documenting Process Calibrators help get the job done faster. It does so many different tasks, so quickly and so well, it's the only process calibrator you need to carry.
* Versatile HART Protocol support
* HART Transmitter Calibration Application Note
* HART Operating Modes Supported
* Differential pressure flow instrument calibration
Versatile HART Protocol support
The 744 supports the commands contained in HART protocol Version 5.7. With 2 MB of memory, the 744 supports a substantial set of HART instructions:
* Universal commands provide functions that are implemented in all field devices, for example, read manufacturer and device type, read primary variable (PV), or read current output and percent of span.
* Common practice commands provide functions that are common to many but not all field devices, for example read multiple variables, set damping time, or perform loop test.
* Device-specific commands provide functions that are unique to a particular field device, for example sensor trim.
HART Transmitter Calibration Application Note
Revised November, 2000, this document covers the subjects on this page in greater detail. Because it has 16 pages, it may take time to open. Read the Application Note. (PDF, 1.05MB)
HART Operating Modes Supported
* Point to Point operation , the most commonly used mode, connects the 744 to a single HART device in a 4-20 mA loop.
* In Multi-Drop mode , several HART instruments can be bussed together. The 744 searches for each, identifies addresses in use, and allows you to select the instrument for calibration and related operations.
* In Burst Mode, the HART instrument transmits bursts of data without waiting to be interrogated by a master unit. The 744 can take transmitters out of burst mode during test or calibration, then later restore them to burst mode.
The Fluke 744 Version 2.1 software upgrade includes:
* Device-specific calibration support for newer revisions of presently supported instruments: Honeywell ST3000 Rev 2, Rosemount 1151 Rev 6, Rosemount 3144 Rev 2, Rosemount 644 Rev 4 and Rev 5, Yokogawa EJA Rev 2, Yokogawa YTA Rev 2, Endress & Hauser Cerabar S Rev 5, and Endress & Hauser Deltabar S Rev 5.
* Device-specific calibration support for additional instruments: ABB/Hartmann & Braun Contrans P (AS 800 series) Rev 2, Endress & Hauser Cerabar M Rev 1, Foxboro IAP/IDP/IGP Rev 1, Foxboro RTT20/Eckardt TI20 Rev 1, SMAR LD301 Rev 3, and Yokogawa YTA 110 and 310 Rev 1.
* New HART capability for supported transmitters: Change HART Temperature Sensor Configuration (e.g. TC to RTD) and Change HART Temperature Sensor Wire Configuration (e.g. 2-wire to 4-wire)
* New measure/source units: Temperature in Kelvin, Temperature in degrees Rankine, and Pressure in Water Column @ 20C
* New features: Selectable Unit in Square Root Test Error Summary and User-enterable Calibration Adjustment Points
The upgrade is delivered on a floppy disk. One upgrade disk is required for each calibrator to be upgraded. Download from your PC to your calibrator using the serial cable originally supplied with your Fluke 744 Calibrator. Elapsed time for the process will be about 8 minutes. After the upgrade is complete, your calibrator will indicate Version 2.1 at start up.
The 2.1 upgrade is available from your regular Fluke dealer or representative as Fluke 744V20. For an available five-pack, ask for Fluke-744V2V.
