Asset management: improving accuracy and speed of device calibration

Emerson has updated AMS Device Manager asset management software to support the Beamex MC6 documenting calibrator, adding electronic workflows that eliminate up to 50% of time spent on each calibration.

AMS Device Manager’s Calibration Assistant SNAP-ON application interfaces with the Beamex MC6 documenting calibrator to manage the calibrations of HART, Foundation Fieldbus, and conventional devices. Users can define, track, and test calibrations with a seamless interface between AMS Device Manager and the Beamex MC6.



The entirely paperless system eliminates transcription mistakes and calculation errors for better accuracy and generates automated records to simplify and streamline compliance with regulatory requirements by FDA, OSHA, EPA and more.

“Organisations have come to rely on AMS Device Manager calibration management to maintain measurement quality while saving valuable time,” said Mani Janardhanan, director of product management for Emerson‘s Plantweb digital ecosystem. “The addition of Beamex MC6 support will ensure that these organisations can take advantage of Beamex’s newest and most accurate calibration hardware alongside the powerful calibration software of AMS Device Manager, helping drive more efficiency in their calibration programs.”

Improved calibration

Users of the Beamex MC6 also gain access to improved calibration features with AMS Device View, which brings AMS Device Manager to mobile devices through intuitive dashboards and focused alerts.

AMS Device View calibration dashboards simplify compliance, displaying the status of devices in the calibration management program.

Users can quickly and easily access schedules showing when devices are due – or overdue – for calibration.
