Pulse Generator V6.0 (Reed Contact)

Application

• Suitable for: RITTER MilliGascounters
• Use with: Data Acquisition Software »Rigamo« and Signal Interface Module (»SIM«)

The Pulse Generator V6.0 (Reed Contact) for RITTER MilliGascounters is used to transfer the measured gas volume to an external measuring instrument (Computer, PC). To convert the signal for USB-output and use in conjunction with Data Acquisition Software »Rigamo« the Signal Interface Module (»SIM«) (both optional accessories) is necessary.

Function

The tilting procedure of the measurement cell closes the two reed contacts. The first contact triggers a pulse at the counter unit. The second reed contact works as a pulse generator (V6.0) and can be used as signal output from the MilliGascounter to an external data acquisition system. Please note that the counter unit displays the gas volume in ml. In contrast, the pulses provided at the output socket are equivalent to the number of tilts of the measurement cell. For further information please refer to par. 3.2.2 of the MilliGascounter Manual.

Electrical Data

Output Socket

Attention: The switch pulses of the reed contact are equal to the number of tilts of the measurement cell. The pulses therefore represent the uncorrected (not calibrated) measured gas volume. The gas volume obtained via the signal output socket must therefore be multiplied by the calibration factor to get the true gas volume.
