Intecal is available in: English, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian and Spanish. (for the latest languages please contact GE Sensing)

Database Architecture

Intecal uses the popular Explorer tree structure to view nested locations. This philosophy is simple to learn and enables plant areas and process instrumentation to be organized and managed effectively.
 

System Security

To prevent unauthorized editing of data, Intecal uses a four tier password-protected security system. Database management is exclusive to the supervisor and administrator while the technician user is permitted to create work orders and transfer data between PC and field calibrators.
 

Employee Manager

Authorized employees are issued with a user ID, which embodies their unique e-signature used to invoke calibration procedures and save result files. The employee name is automatically populated on the calibration report.
 

Instrument Records

The 'function' pane is the direct portal to the device database containing the following:

Manufacturer, model number and serial number of instrument, the input and output range data and calibration pass/fail criteria
Generic test procedures and work orders to assist resource planning
Archived calibration history and reports, including as found/as left data complete with graphs

Time-Based Schedule

A time-based search engine quickly identifies devices due or overdue for calibration. This simple but powerful resource management tool helps plan routine calibration and outage maintenance.
 

Field Calibration

Portable documenting calibrators can be programmed with object lists and test procedures. In the field these routines are executed automatically for electrical and temperature calibrations or semi-automatically where manual setting is required, for example, pressure generation. The device error is indicated with the PASS/FAIL status and both As Found and As Left calibrations are supported. This automation promotes uniformity and eliminates human errors.
 

Manual Data Entry

Calibrators and test equipment without serial communications, for example deadweight testers, are supported with a manual data entry facility. Calibration results are entered as the test proceeds, or alternatively, results recorded from field calibrators can be entered later. This feature provides total compatibility with existing equipment and allows the full benefits of automated calibration to be realized at a later date when older equipment is replaced by documenting calibrators.
 

Laboratory calibration (Intecal Advanced only)

Calibration systems can be configured to meet specific test and accuracy requirements with the flexibility to have up to three instruments working together. This includes an instrument for setting/controlling the input parameter, a standard for measuring the input and a standard for measuring the output. These systems can be fully automated or allow manual control and data entry for non-compatible standards or devices under test.
 

Calibration Reports

The calibration certificates can be printed or exported in a clear logical format that complies with the requirements of quality approvals such as ISO 9000. As found and as left results are detailed in numerical and graphical form including pass/fail status, and important information about the device calibrated, the calibrator used and the technician.

Calibration Standards

Our instruments are calibrated with precision equipment traceable to international standards.
