Equipment

M.O.L.E.® EV20 takes ECD’s novel touchscreen thermal profiler design to new levels. With 20 thermocouple inputs to enable expansive measurement precision for complex assemblies, M.O.L.E. EV20 is ideal for high-reliability, high-value PCBs used in mission-critical applications. Like all EV-generation touchscreen profilers, M.O.L.E. EV20 enables users to view process calculation templates, profiles, and pass/fail results directly on the device. Designed for ease-of-use, the thin, 20-channel profiler works with standard mini-connectors, has USB-C charging, and Bluetooth® wireless connectivity.

SuperM.O.L.E. Gold

Features/functions:

•Touch screen display: Display allows user configuration, measurement and data analysis right on the device.

Screen:

Description:

 

Home

The default screen that is displayed when the thermal profiler is turned ON or when on a different screen times out.

 

This screen displays the status for:

•Channel status (20): Shows channel number, sensor type and current temperature configured on the Channel type screen. These are dimmed if disabled and N/C if enabled with no sensor connected.

•Date/Time: Current data and time configured on the Date/Time screen. Touch this to access the Date/Time screen.

•Log interval: The interval the thermal profiler will take a reading when recording data. This is set on the Record configure screen. Touch this to access the Record configure screen.

•Battery charge: Indicates remaining charge (0-100% displayed at 20% increments).

•File storage: Indicates how full the storage is (0-100% at 10% increments).

•Internal temperature: Symbol is Green if <=40°, Yellow if >40°C, <=70°C, Red if >70°C.
