|
|
Release Date: Friday, October 09, 2009
LARGO, FLORIDA – The new HPC400 Series of handheld pressure calibrators from AMETEK Calibration Instruments is a true field instrument designed for easy and reliable check and calibration of pressure. The HPC400 Series is suited for process control applications such as verification or calibration of pressure gauges, transducers, transmitters, pressure switches and safety valves.
The high-quality and user friendly features of the HPC400 make calibration tasks easy to perform. All relevant information is shown on a large, multi-line graphical display. This includes 15 different pressure units, transmitter mA reading with 24 VDC supply onboard, min/max and peak recording, and semiautomatic pressure switch test. Opening and closing pressures are automatically recorded and deadband calculated.
Three pressure ranges are available (HPC400-2C for vacuum to 2 bar/ 30 psi; HPC400-7C for vauum to 7 bar/ 100 psi and HPC400-20C for vacuum to 20 bar / 300 psi). There are five user specific setups available for frequently used measurement/ calibration applications.
The rugged HPC400 calibrator has a large backlit graphical display a user friendly menu with icons that show current status and mode and one, two or three measurement windows to suit specific applications or needs. A dedicated zero test button to provide convenient zero before test helps ensure accuracy.
Maintenance of the HPC400 is easy. Recalibration of the unit can be performed locally with an accurate pressure reference. There is no need to send the unit back to AMETEK for recalibration. Pump and calibrator are separate, so replacement of the pump does not require return of the complete system for repair.
The HPC400 can be delivered as an individual calibrator or as a complete calibration system ready for use in a carrying case, including pump, hose connectors, battery, test leads, user manual and traceable calibration certificate.
The JOFRA® HPC400 handheld pressure calibrators is part of a comprehensive line of pressure, temperature, and force-measurement and calibration products marketed by AMETEK Calibration Instruments under the JOFRA®, LLOYD®, CHATILLON® and MANSFIELD & GREEN® brand names.
