HAMILTON ARC SYSTEM

The true power of the HAMILTON ARC familyHAMILTON has delivered quality products to laboratories for more than 50 years, including products such as syringes, laboratory devices, automation platforms and sensors.

In the world of process analytics, HAMILTON is known for sensors (pH, oxygen, redox, and conductivity), and for its first-class choice of process armatures, completed with their selection of process connectors.

HAMILTON ARC revolutionizes the integration of sensors by rethinking communication between sensors, end users and process control systems. The functionality of a traditional transmitter has been replaced by a microprocessor within the sensor. ARC sensors bypass the transmitter and communicate directly to the control system. Sensors are available in all standard pH, dissolved oxygen and conductivity formats.

ARC Vital: Eliminate the cost of the transmitter and get more reliable readings

For users in established facilities, ARC sensors can communicate without the use of a transmitter with 4-20 mA devices or digitally with a computer. In this area the advantage of the ARC system is in lab calibration with ARC View Handheld, retained records, and the proven quality and accuracy of HAMILTON sensors. The 4-20 mA signal is more stable and reliable than the low currents or voltages in classical oxygen, conductivity or pH measurement.

ARC Versa: In lab pre-calibrations, sensor management with ARC View Handheld and wireless communication option

Combine cost savings and reliability of ARC Vital with the convenience of ARC View Handheld and ARC Wi. The ARC View Handheld device facilitates in-lab pre-calibration, configuration of the HAMILTON ARC sensors, and sensor management. Wired or wireless communication will make handling and maintenance of the sensors and process control more reliable, simple and efficient.

ARC Vision: Digital signal transmission and wireless monitoring of multiple sensorsFor new facilities and installations the ARC sensors are truly revolutionary. In digital mode several ARC sensors can run and be maintained in parallel. Wired or wireless communication will make installation, handling and maintenance of the sensors and process control more reliable, simple and efficient. ARC View Handheld enables wireless, handheld, local monitoring of all sensors in process as well as in-lab calibration of sensors prior to installation into the process.

The bridge between process parameter and process controlThree ARC concepts meet customer requirements from established research and pilot labs to new production facilities and installations:

HAMILTON’s ARC Vital, ARC Versa, and ARC Vision systems offer an optimal solution for every use case.
