As the demand throughout the industry grows for robust solutions to Mirra® cost of ownership, Balanceworx continues to keep pace by offering customers the first fully cross compatible regulator redesign for the UPA. This flexible solution couples higher temperature capability and variable voltage control via a calibrated, closed loop regulator design with standard look up tables. Our customized UPA board can accommodate both Balanceworx and SMC® regulators which allows you to fully adopt our solution on your timeline!
OBSTACLES
TEMPERTURE
Temperature testing on Oxide and Tungsten Mirras® shows levels reaching 190F at the regulator manafold.
SMC® regulators
SMC IT1011-N31-X4,
SMC IT1001-N31-X6
are specified by the manufacturer to handle 121F.
PRESSURE AND CALIBRATION
Pressure shifts during temperature changes has been recorded up to +/- .3psi.
Requires Zero & Span Calibration.
Unable to calibrate zero PSI at zero voltage DC requiring a variable voltage offset .
TIME
Requires auto-calibration for 20 minutes with RPM3 box.
Failed unit can result in tool downtime between 20 to 60 minutes for each regulator not including tool re-qualification.
COST
Failure requires replacement
Power is not available to provide alternative solutions
12-16 units per tool escalate maintenence
Balanceworx solution compatible with SMC Regulators
