Always at the forefront of technological development in surface measurement systems, PDI introduces the completely new modular Series 400. All 400 series models utilize the same basic hardware, with model differences determined by the software installed, style of tracer and optional plotter. Simplicity is also inherent in the operation of the instrument, with prompts to guide the operator as the system gathers data, calculates the results and automatically displays the selected parameter, cutoff and system settings. The vacuum fluorescent display is bright and has a wide viewing angle, making it easy to read from any position. The Series 400 Amplifier is a sophisticated yet easy to use instrument with a modular surface texture program.
All models feature a vacuum fluorescent display and sealed membrane keypad.
Battery power is included on all models with the graphic plotter, and is optional on all other models. Operation is at once simple, sophisticated and secure. Set the exact stroke length required or use the standard 5-cutoffs. After setting, the programming can be secured by a turn of the lockout key, which prevents inadvertent changes. Once configured, the system operates by pressing the Start Button or through use of an optional remote start switch.
