Model MCA-1000

The Hagner MCA-1000 Multi-Channel Amplifier is designed for use where several simultaneous photometric measurements are required. It can be provided with up to 10 inputs for Hagner Special Detectors, each with its own amplifier. Each channel has an output 0-2V DC which corresponds to the chosen calibration range, 0-E lux or 0-W W/m².

The Hagner MCA-1000 Multi-Channel Amplifier

The Hagner Multi-Channel Amplifier is designed for use where several simultaneous photometric measurements are required. Such applications include:

- The measurement of distribution from light sources.
- Control and regulation of lighting in large buildings, such as theatres, sport arenas etc.
- Control of switching functions in high voltage switchgear areas. (Detection of arcing.)

The MCA-1000 includes the required number of input terminals, up to a maximum of 10 channels.
A Hagner photometric or radiometric detector, either a standard or specially designed, can be connected to each input channel.

Each channel has an output for the connection of a voltmeter, recorder, data logger etc, all calibrated to the requirements of the user. The accuracy is better than +/- 3%, while the amplifiers are temperature compensated, so that the drift is less than 0.05% /°C.

The output signal from each channel will be calibrated as 0-2 volts for a measured variable of 0-E lux or 0-W W/m². The values of E and/or W being specified by the user.
Examples might be 0 - 2,000 lux or 0 - 20.00 W/m².

Price and delivery can be quoted following receipt of full details of user requirements.

The advantage of the MCA-1000 for multi-channel applications is that it will be considerably cheaper, and neater, than using several separate photometers.
