The Pulmac Automated Z-Span™ Tester offers an automated zero span and short span testing capability. Once the sample handsheets or strip are loaded onto the feed tray, 24 wet/dry, zero/short span tests are executed during a five minute testing sequence. Following termination of the testing sequence, test results are displayed on the operator interface terminal and, via Ethernet connection, can automatically update a local PC-based Excel database. The Automated Z-Span™ Tester is calibrated and control software is loaded as part of in-factory system integration.
