Description

The 8100 is a multi-purpose test stand, primarily for use with process instrumentation in the

workshop or lab. It is a compact workstation that provides users with quick and customiseable

setups for common testing applications and service work. These include practical mounting of

various pressure transmitters and gauges, temperature transmitters, RTDs and thermocouples.

A solid aluminium track plate situates on a non-slip rubber mat, providing a sturdy base for

working with heavy transmitters and other devices. The base allows the fixtures and tools to be

easily connected, with knurled knob thumb screws and clamps to secure them in place. The

fixtures can slide back and forth along the tracks for an optimal working position. They can also

be removed and repositioned as per user preference.

An upright support with clamp mechanism can be used to hold poles (2 supplied) either

vertically or horizontally, for u-bolt transmitter mounting. The clamp mechanism features a front

and rear section for this purpose (rear: vertical, front: horizontal). These clamp sections have

step jaws that are tightened with cylinder bolts. An electric screwdriver is supplied to speed up

the setup process. The clamp jaws are also utilised for direct mounting of instrumentation, or

for holding angle brackets that connect to transmitters.

A compact single port pressure manifold connects to the base track with a clamp fitting to enable

positioning as required. It features a hand-tight connector for the UUT side. A dual port version is

optional. Models for pneumatic and hydraulic work are also available.

The 8100 is supplied as a comprehensive kit with tools and fixtures for a variety of tasks. Tools

include 3 adjustable spanners, electric screwdriver, bit set, folding triangle hex key set, and cable

tie set. Additional fixtures are provided to connect to the base plate and the upright clamp sections.
