ARC Vital: Simplicity and Quality
4 – 20 mA current loop
ARC Vital. Whether you’re in search of a breakthrough pharmaceutical
treatment or producing a world-famous beer, the pressure to make it all
happen reliably and cost-effectively rests squarely on your shoulders.
You know what works and you’re not interested in fixing a system that isn’t
broken. You need cost-effective solutions for your analog PLC that
provide superior data integrity, increased productivity and longer life
cycles.
The Quality SolutionMore than simply sensors, ARC Sensors are the complete solution: innovative, premium quality sensors with a robust, direct, and standard interface to the PLC.

ARC sensors make transmitters redundant
Classic sensors produce weak, temperamental
signals that require an expensive transmitter to amplify
the signal before connecting to the Process Control
System.
With ARC Vital, no transmitter is required. You can
connect the robust 4-20mA signal directly from the sensor
head to the process control system. This mean you’ll
never have to buy another expensive transmitter, it also
eliminates critical points of failure by doing away with the
environmentally-sensitive signal typically output by classic
sensors and minimizing compatibility issues.
What makes ARC Sensors more than simply sensors is their built-in direct connectivity.

ARC Versa: Sensor with two InterFaces
As with all HAMILTON ARC solutions, ARC
Vision has been designed with the clear understanding that the
integrity of your process depends on the integrity of the sensor
data delivered from the line.
From the SINGLE PORE, “never clog” diaphragm of our pH
sensors, to the robust, easy-to-replace, solid Sensor Cap of
our optical dissolved oxygen sensors, to the patented
conductivity standards used to calibrate our conductivity
sensors, HAMILTON innovations are designed optimize
operations by delivering superior data integrity and streamlined
maintenance.
ARC Sensors are the premium sensor
solution that connects directly to your analog
PLC while delivering the power of digital
sensor management.

ARC Versa: Striking the Balance
ARC Versa. Your goal is to optimize your process control systems to
consistently and cost-effectively deliver the highest quality results.
You’re challenged with striking the balance between getting the most from
older analog systems while leveraging the advantages of the latest online
wireless sensor management technology.
The Power of Multiple ConnectivityARC Sensors include multiple
connectivity options, both
analog and digital, for robust
and efficient integration.

ARC Versa: Multiple Connectivity
Direct analog connectivity means you’ll never again have to buy another
expensive transmitter or struggle with a weak, temperamental signal from a sensor.
With ARC Sensors, no transmitter is required. You can simplify and boost your
system by connecting the robust, 4‑20mA signal directly from the sensor head to the
process control system.
And that’s just the beginning – direct
digital connectivity from the sensor
head opens up a new and powerful
world of digital sensor management
that will propel your operation to new
levels of efficiency and profitability.

As with all HAMILTON ARC solutions, with the wireless version
of the ARC View communicator onsite personnel have the ability to stay
mobile as they monitor and manage sensors.
This allows them to stay on top of
sensor management no matter where
they are in the plant.

ARC Versa: System Components
The ARC View Handheld brings digital sensor
management to your system as it optimizes online calibration
and maintenance.
The ability to store calibration data is just one of the many
advantages of digital sensor management. The intelligence built
into every ARC Sensor means:
• Each sensor has a unique digital identity.• Sensor history is downloadable for off-line analysis.• Sensors continuously communicate clear status info
regarding errors, sensing quality, alarms, calibration requests, etc., resulting in more precise formulations.
• Sensors’ true “health” clearly communicated at all times, resulting in less maintenance, increased process accuracy, and longer sensor lifetimes.
• Process downtime minimized because non-specialized team members can replace sensors.

ARC Vision. You appreciate how state-of-the-art technology can energize and empower
employees to deliver top performances.

ARC Vision: Power of Networking
The robust digital technology in ARC Vision allows the creation of
both wired and wireless sensor networks. Sensor networks hold many of the
same advantages of computer networks. Sensors may be configured and
managed in groups.
Additionally, with ARC Sensors’ plug-
and-play ability, each sensor is an active
element in the network… when one
sensor is exchanged, the system will
immediately recognize the new sensor’s
different ID. This reduces human error
and increases safety.
