ADM IV - Arc Data Monitor

ADM IV™ Arc Data Monitor

  • The new generation, user friendly, ADM IV™ Arc Data Monitor can be easily configured to fulfill the requirements of any end users needs.
  • This device can be employed as a stand-alone unit using the "Remote Control Pendant" to configure the system and view the results or it can be linked to a PC to accomplish the same task.
  • The modular design and compact size of the new ADM IV™ and the fact that it is software configurable permits each user to design and implement their own unique system to achieve the desired end results.
  • Internal memory permits information to be saved at the job site and downloaded to a printer or personal computer at a more convenient time and location.
  • The new version of "Windows 95 / 98 / NT" compatible ADMSTAT Plus™ software provides a mechanism that permits additional data storage and further analysis of collected data.
  • The ADM IV™ is a rugged, versatile and cost effective tool that can be arrayed in single and multiple arc configurations.
  • The ADM IV™, a versatile next generation quality control device that is capable of assuring that all of your arc welding parameters meet or exceed "ISO-9000", "QS-9000" standards and your Statistical Process Control (SPC) requirements.

MODES OF OPERATION

  • Data Monitoring - The portable ADM tests actual weld parameter data and compares it to upper and lower control limits for each parameter. When a fault condition is encountered, the system sets an internal alarm relay, which can be used to shut down the welding system or activate an external alarm.
  • Data Logging - This mode is for data collection only. Welding parameter data can be dumped to an external printer for hard copy printout and fault analysis or to a compatible personal computer using ADMSTAT Plus software for data storage and analysis.
