ArcAir is the app for Hamilton Arc sensors. It enables online monitoring and visualization of pH, dissolved oxygen, CO2, cell density, conductivity, and ORP sensors during biotechnological processes. With the ArcAir application, you can communicate wirelessly with up to 100 Arc sensors at the same time parallel to the process control system interface when an Arc Wi Bluetooth adapter is connected between the VP head of an Arc sensor and the VP sensor cable or the sensor has inbuilt Bluetooth functionality. Within the ArcAir application, Hamilton provides reporting and central data management of users, as well as validation reports for sensor calibration (excluding VCD sensors), verification, configuration, and communication. ArcAir embeds report’s electronic signatures, enabling paperless workflow. All of this complies with the GMP guidelines such as FDA CFR21 Part 11 or Eudralex Volume 4 Annex 11.
Wind Triangle
Read full descriptionHide full description
Calculate heading and ground speed for flight planning, wind speed and direction for in-flight wind assessment, or any other parameter in the aviation wind triangle! Whether you need an easy wind solver for flight planning or you're a student pilot learning the ins and outs of the E6B wind side, this app makes solving the wind triangle intuitive and easy. With the in-flight wind assessment (GPS-enabled devices only), the app uses GPS and heading to automatically calculate the current wind at your altitude by just inputting your TAS or CAS with conditions. This brings integrated flight deck capabilities to your aircraft with a readout of your current head/tail- and crosswind components. Inputs supported: heading, true airspeed, ground speed, track, wind direction, wind speed. Input any four parameters and the app calculates the rest. Calibrated airspeed (CAS) may be set instead of TAS. Inputting CAS prompts you to set barometric setting, indicated altitude, and outside air temperature (OAT). From this, TAS, pressure altitude, and density altitude are calculated. Try GPS mode (supported devices only) on the ground by enabling the GPS Demo Mode option.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: ArcAir at Free against Wind Triangle's $2.99. ArcAir also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). Wind Triangle's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
