The New Standard in Calibration Devices
The Gilibrator 3 is the most advanced calibrator on the market, designed to provide performance, reliability, and ease-of-use. The Gilibrator 3 truly sets the standard for calibration integrity and data reporting. The Gilibrator 3 is a Primary air flow calibrator by NIOSH definition, and delivers NIST traceability through Sensidyne’s ISO 17025 accredited laboratory.
Gilibrator 3 features include:
Fast and easy to use dry calibrator
StablFlow™ provides constant low back pressure to device being calibrated
Patent pending pulse-free valve technology maintains calibration integrity
Touch screen color display with auto adjust for visibility in all lighting conditions, even in direct sunlight
Multiple flow cells with a common base adds convenience and saves cost
Internal record storage provides data continuity and reporting
Gilian CONNECT PC Compatible allows for data retrieval, record keeping, and statistical analysis of data
SmartCal™ capable with GilAir Plus® pumps, for hands free adjustments
Calibrations in the Field, the Lab, or Wherever You Go
The Gilibrator 3 delivers maximum convenience, accuracy, and data integrity. The calibrator is designed for mobility with an advanced rechargeable Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery. It has a modular design for quick changes of liquid-free, dry flow cells, addressing calibrations from 5 cc/min to 30 LPM. ISO 17025 calibration certificates available from Sensidyne.
Modularity
Quick disconnect fittings allow for easy flow cell exchange:
Low: 5 to 450 cc/min
Standard: 50 to 5,000 cc/min
High: 1LPM to 30LPM
Configure to Your Requirements
The Gilibrator 3 can be configured to meet the user’s calibration needs. The user may select between Continuous or Averaging modes. In Averaging mode, the user may select a sample set between 3 and 20 samples to be averaged. In addition, the user can define statistical parameters for Standard Deviation and percent deviation between sample sets. Within the settings screen, the user is able to define engineering units of measurement, date, time, temperature, and choose from a selection of languages in the devices library.
Design Features
At the core of the Gilibrator 3 is StablFlow «pulse free valve technology», providing low back pressure to the devices being calibrated. The patented design equalizes pressure on the pump, regardless of puck travel direction. This feature allows for minimal disturbance of the airflow generated by the instrument under calibration, providing high calibration accuracy (within 1% of reading). Unlike competitor dry cell calibrators, the Gilibrator 3 uses a new fixed sensing array technology that eliminates the potential for misalignment of photo sensors. By collecting multiple flow rate data points, the array ensures accurate, reliable calibration data throughout the calibration process, lowering operational costs.
Accurate Air Flow Calibration Capabilities
The Gilibrator 3 has live, instantaneous flow measurement, accurate within 1% of reading. The constant, low interference back pressure throughout the calibration sets allow for consistent airflow accuracy.
Easy Data Input and Access to Critical Information
The Gilibrator 3 offers the best user interface capabilities, with full touch screen keyboard for completing data input, and user defined fields for maintaining sample integrity. The Gilibrator 3 displays the last calibration and serial numbers for both the Base and connected Flow Cell, and displays a reminder of next calibration due date. In addition, the user can track use of the calibrator through displayed cycle counts for both the base and for the flow cell.
Digital Calibration Records Improve Report Reliability
The Gilibrator 3 can generate printable calibration reports. Bitmap calibration reports display sample information, saved instrument settings, and individual sample results. The calibrator base can store 100 timestamped calibration events in its on-board memory. This allows calibration data in sampling reports ａnd historical record review for statistical analysis.
Datalogging and Downloading
The Gilibrator 3 comes with an SD Card slot, which allows increased storage and alternate transfer of calibration data via exporting of bitmap and .csv files. Bitmap calibration reports display sample information, saved instrument settings, and individual sample results. Exporting of .csv files allows data archiving in Excel that can be used for input into larger data comparison sets.
