Model SPS24
SENCOM PC Software
GS 12A01S02-01E
n General
SENCOM sensors, which perform measurement
in combination with the FLXA202/FLXA21 2-wire
analyzer, are usually calibrated via the analyzer at the
site. With the SPS24, operators can calibrate sensors
at a laboratory or other place as long as there is a
PC with SPS24 installed. At calibration, the SPS24
helps sensors store the calibration data in their own
memory. When the sensor is connected back to the
FLXA202/FLXA21, the calibration data in the sensor is
automatically sent to the FLXA202/FLXA21.
SENCOM sensors use a connector connection and so
can easily be connected to or disconnected from the
cable. SENCOM sensors are connected to a SPS24-
installed PC via an interface box. A WU11 SENCOM
cable connects the sensor to the interface box and a
USB cable connects the interface box to the PC.
As it is PC software, the SPS24 has a larger
display than the analyzer. The analyzer displays a
multi-layered menu in abbreviated form, while the
SPS24 can display the full text and supplementary
information, enabling smooth operation and reducing
operation hours.
Working with the data management function and
other applications in the PC, the SPS24 can save a
large amount of calibration data, and allow editing
and outputting of reports. The SPS24 can import and
export the calibration data and the setting data for
calibration, and so can gather past sensor data in the
PC or easily transmit data to other PCs.
By referring to past data, the SPS24 can automatically
estimate the health of the sensor, and thus display the
anticipated replacement date.
n Features
Easy-to-use interface
The SPS24 displays sufcient information and makes
operation more efcient thanks to the ease of use
and exible display area of the PC.
Trend graphics to show input stabilization
The trend wave form displayed during calibration
allows operators to visually recognize when the input
becomes stable. Operators can start measurement
after conrming that the input has stabilized or can set
a range in advance to automatically start measurement.
Simultaneous calibration of up to four SENCOM sensors
The SPS24 can connect up to four sensors for
simultaneous calibration.
Data management for SENCOM sensors
The SPS24 can maintain previous data of sensors as
well as the data of currently connected sensors. With
this feature, operators can:
•
check past calibration records as well as the latest one
• record and manage calibration work for each
operator under the valid user account
• limit access by setting user levels
Migration of sensor data
The setting data of the current sensors can be saved in
the PC. The data can also be copied to other sensors.
Flexible reporting function
Properties of the sensors which are saved in the PC
can be output in PDF or Excel formats. The output
parameters are selectable.

The SENCOM sensor can save its properties such as calibration data in itself.
The sensor is detachable and calibrated either at the site or the laboratory.
Example: the calibration data saved on the PC can be used in both the PC and FLEXA.
