Further extending its range of digital readout units, UK agent for Sylvac, Bowers Metrology has launched the new, cost-effective D300S from the Swiss metrology manufacturer. Sylvac’s advanced new digital readout unit is able to display the absolute displacement position of the unit’s transducer probes to a resolution of 0.1µm.

With all of the new readout’s multi-functions easily accessed via a touchscreen, the compact unit is ideal for use within inspection departments or on the shopfloor. The D300S has a highly visible 8.5 inch LCD digital display and is capable of accepting readings from two Sylvac probe inputs (P2-P50) and six USB inputs from Sylvac instruments. The readout is able to memorise previously inputted configurations and values and can recall both individual or group preset values. Each of the D300S’s channels has a separate math function, whilst all channels have switchable numeric/analogue and statistical displays.

Extending the unit’s capability through the use of software, the D300S can manage the readings of up to 64 instruments simultaneously making it ideal for use with multi-gauging systems. To enable results to be downloaded, Sylvac’s D300S can be connected to printers, computers and data loggers, via the unit’s RS232 and USB connections.
