Measurement
The ROOTS micro corrector is part of the new Micro series of electronic products from Dresser Measurement. The Micro Corrector, Model PTZ + Log, calculates corrected volume by measuring live temperature and pressure. Supercompressibility is calculated using the AGA 8/SGERG 88 Gross Characterization Method. The unit has logging capability for 35 days of hourly logs, 48 days of daily logs and 15 months of monthly logs, as well as an audit log. Designed to be the best value in the industry, available in a variety of mounting styles and in several transducer ranges, the ROOTS micro corrector offers versatility at a competitive price.
Unit Hardware Features The ROOTS micro corrector is the smallest and lightest volume corrector on the market today (the wall/pipe mount version weighs less than 3 pounds!), measuring only 6-1/4 inches in width. It is designed for universal mounting on instrument drive rotary, diaphragm and turbine meters. The Micro Corrector can be instrument drive, wall, pipe or meter bracket mounted. Additionally, the corrector has two instrument drive options - either with or without uncorrected mechanical counter. The front panel has an easy to push scroll button, which eliminates the need for magnets. 5+ Year Battery Life New, low power electronics yield unprecedented battery life - in excess of 5 years. Low battery indication occurs with a minimum of 2 months remaining battery life. This means lower operating and maintenance costs, fewer battery disposal issues, and fewer batteries to purchase and stock. Intuitive, Windows Based Software After loading the user terminal software under Windows 95/98/2000, you get everything you need to communicate with your Micro Corrector either through direct connection or remote communication, using your laptop or desktop PC. The software is easy to use and requires minimal training. One-click screen and data selection make configuration easy. The software includes built-in intelligence, so when you choose an incorrect parameter, your selection will be shaded in red, signaling you to STOP and edit the chosen value.
