Fluke 744B Documenting Process Calibrator

 

                                

    We know how tough your job can be. You've got a lot to deliver in as little time as possible. So we've made it easier on you - with our multifunction 740B Series Documenting Process Calibrators. The 740 Series does the work of several tools - sourcing or measuring pressure, temperature, and electrical signals in one rugged, hand-held device.

    For documentation, the 740 Series automates calibration procedures and captures your data - for easy transfer to a PC using Fluke DPC/Track software or other popular packages. And, of course, it helps you meet rigorous standards like ISO 9000, FDA, EPA and OSHA regulations.

    The 740 Series is easy to use with flexible test strategies, user-entered values, custom units, even a built in calculator. And like all Fluke tools, it's rugged, reliable and tough as nails. It's like having several powerful tools in one - so you can work faster than ever:

  • Calibrate temperature, pressure, voltage, current, resistance, and frequency
  • Measure and source with one compact, rugged, reliable tool
  • Create and run automated as-found/as-left procedures
    Supports linear, square-root devices plus one-point and two-point limit switches
  • Record and document results
  • Transfer the results to a PC (743B and 744 only), saving the time to manually transcribe data.
    Run popular instrumentation management software.
  • HART communication capability lets you program and control HART instrumentation (744 only)

     The Fluke 740 Calibrators, offered in three models, let you choose the right set of capabilities for your needs:

                          

  • The Fluke 741B offers simultaneous source and measure capabilities for all common process parameters. Create and execute automated procedures and automatically capture the results.
  • The Fluke 743B offers all the capability of the 741B, plus adds a serial interface for two-way communication applications
  • The Fluke 744 offers all of the capabilities of the 743B, plus the ability to maintain and calibrate selected HART transmitters without a second tool.

    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. 

     DPC/TRACK Software is a specialized database that can help you manage your instrumentation and address the documentation requirements of quality programs and regulations.   


The 744 offers:
  • Integrated HART communication functions, permitting you to monitor, control, and calibrate HART instrumentation.
  • Handling of fast pulsed RTD transmitters and PLCs, with pulses as short as 1 mS.
  • 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.

With the 744 DPC, you can:

  • 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

     Allow you to quickly set up powerful, automated calibration procedures for linear transmitters, DP flow transmitters, and one- and two-point limit switches.  Simply select the appropriate measure and/or source functions and fill out the procedure template. The 740 Series does the rest. It quickly performs the test, calculates the errors, and displays the final results, highlighting out of tolerance points.

     Enable you to map one unit to another, such as mV to C or F. Allows you to use the Fluke 740 Series with millivolt output accessories such as the Fluke  Temperature Probe, and to document tests using non-supported units such as parts per million or revolutions per minute.

   Enables technicians to record calibration results that were sourced and/or measured by other devices such as panel meters or readout-only devices.  Procedures perform fast, automated calibration of one and two-point limit switches for voltage, current, temperature, and pressure.  Routines use a square root function to directly calibrate DP flow instruments.

Multifunctional

Calibrate temperature, pressure, voltage, current, resistance, and frequency.  Since it both measures and sources, you can troubleshoot and calibrate all with one rugged tool.

Powerful, yet easy to use

The easy-to-follow menu-driven display guides you through any task.  Get up to speed in minutes, not days. Programmable calibration routines enable you to  create and run automated as-found/as-left procedures to ensure fast, consistent, calibrations.

Records and documents results

To support your ISO-9000 or regulatory standards the Fluke 741 captures your calibration results, eliminating the need to juggle a pen and pad in the field.

Truly hand-held

Small enough to fit easily into a tool bag and to use in tight spaces.  Runs an entire shift on a rechargeable NiCd battery pack.

Rugged and reliable

Count on Fluke's rugged design to deliver top accuracy and reliability in harsh environments. Overmolded urethane case stands up to rough handling in industrial environments.

Bright white display

Lets you read your results in any kind of light.

Soft keys
