PR3400 - Beamsplitter Pro Energy Transmission Meter
View Larger

General Description

Expanding on our success with sales demonstration tools, our new “Beamsplitter Pro” product is able to simultaneously display UV, Visible and Infrared transmission values. The light sources and sensors are all contained inside the instrument. There are no adjustments required to operate the PR3400. Simply plug in the power cord and slide the glass sample into the opening and watch the resulting performance data appear on the display.

The bright, multi-colored LED displays make the results easy to see. A convenient kickstand on the back of the enclosure allows the instrument to stand up so the resulting values can be easily displayed to a group of people---perfect for showrooms, trade shows, and meetings with groups of people.

Perform LIVE demonstrations of the performance of your Energy Efficient window products. Simple, fast and convincing; this instrument will place your sales demonstrations a level above the rest!

Basic Operation

Place the PR3400 on a flat, stationary surface where you intend to conduct your measurements. Flip open the kickstand on the back side of the enclosure and allow the instrument to rest firmly on the kickstand. Allow enough room for the glass samples to lean into the opening.

There is no power switch for the Beamsplitter Pro. The unit is powered by a 9-volt DC power supply (1.3 Amp rating). To turn the instrument on, simply plug the power supply into the wall and the other end of the cord into the PR3400. The power connector is located on the left end of the instrument. After powering up the PR3400, allow the system to self-calibrate. After each of the displays show 100%, you can place any sample into the opening to measure the performance characteristics.

You can hold the glass sample in place with your hand. You can also lean the glass sample into the opening, allowing the glass to rest against the opening in the PR3400. This will facilitate a hands-free demonstration. PLEASE NOTE: the instrument is designed to test small window samples. Do not rest large, heavy windows against the opening of the instrument, as this could permanently damage the kickstand.

Helpful Reminders

Here are a few helpful reminders for conducting transmission measurements. Always hold the glass perpendicular to the opening. Do not tilt the glass at angles. For the most accurate transmission measurements, the glass should be held perpendicular to the sensors. It is also recommended that the samples being tested are positioned in the center of the opening. Be aware that fingerprints on the glass can slightly affect the transmission values.

When you slide the glass into position, move the glass all the way into the opening, resting against the stop location. Pay attention to the spacer/sash of your window. Make sure the glass is slid far enough into the opening so the spacer/sash is not blocking one of the sensors.

The instrument will continually monitor its calibration during measurements. If the instrument detects any problems with the calibration, it will reset itself in between measurements. If you mistakenly turn the instrument on with a piece of glass already in position, the displays will calibrate to read 100% with the glass in place. Simply remove the glass sample and wait a few moments. The displays will identify the fault condition by registering a high reading (“HI”). The instrument will re-calibrate itself shortly after the glass is removed. After the displays have returned to 100%, you may continue with your measurements.

Spectrum Specifications

The PR3400 displays energy transmission values in three spectrums. The light sources used for each spectrum have a peak response at the following wavelengths

                UV:               365nm



                VISIBLE:       Full Weighted Spectrum



                INFRARED:  950nm
