LabManager

Modular & flexibel

Control laboratory equipment and automate processes

Automation in the laboratory, technical center and production has long been a matter of course if a company wants to be successful in the long term. However, many development facilities are not yet ready to take advantage of the benefits of digitalization and automation.

LabManager takes your laboratory automation to the next level. Compact, flexible and powerful it combines all the important functions in a single device. This allows you to connect and network the devices and reactors typically used in the laboratory to control, monitor and optimize your processes.

Wether continuous or batch processes in Chemistry, Pharma, Biotech or Cosmetics - thanks to its modular design the LabManager system adapts perfectly to your individual requirements and processes of any complexity. The connection technology is based on standardized plug-in modules with standardized plugs and socketsso that you can easily expand or adapt your automated laboratory at any time.

All the necessary automation functions are already integrated - external transmitters, controllers or control units are no longer required, nor is the control cabinet. This not only saves valuable space in laboratory but also significantly reduces sondern reduziert auch installation and maintenance costs. erheblich.

 

In combination with the flexible LabVision Software we get you ready for Lab 4.0.

Features & benefits

  • Redundant time base and system monitoring (watchdog): guarantees system stability, reliability, process accuracy and safety standards
  • Integrated power supply for sensors and actuators: More efficiency, less installation work and increased operational reliability
  • 2-point scaling/calibration: Correct measurement results and reliable processes
  • Limit and warning values for all data points: ensures operational reliability, process stability and product quality and avoids unnecessary costs due to downtime or production errors
  • Manual/automatic switchover: Flexibility, safety, maintenance, troubleshooting and process continuity
  • Integrated filter functions (low-pass, moving average, min, max, scatter, variance): Precise, stable and reliable measurement results
  • Linearization tables for Pt100, NiCr-Ni, Fe-CuNi (type L) etc. and user-defined tables in the FLASH memory: High-precision temperature measurements, fast calculations and individual sensor adjustments
  • Device modules for linking data points: Efficient data processing and flexible automation systems
  • Sensor and conductor break detection: Minimization of safety risks, reliable control of processes and prevention of production downtimes

More info

  • CPU module
  • Slide-in modules for analog in- and output
  • Slide-in modules for temperature sensors/thermocouples
  • Slide-in modules for strain gauge bridges
  • Slide-in modules for digital in- and output
  • Slide-in module for connecting laboratory devices with a network interface
  • Serial interfaces
    Serial interfaces can be provided on both the AS and the OS. Simple laboratory devices such as dosing pumps and scales are usually connected directly to an AS so that they can be easily integrated into control loops. Laboratory devices with complex functionality such as analyzers or titrators should be connected directly to an OS.
