LARGO, FLORIDA – The new JOFRA® handheld pressure calibrator from AMETEK Calibration Instruments offers electrical generation of pressure or vacuum with the touch of a key. The calibrator features a unique built-in electrical pump system. No manual pump required!
The versatile HPC 600 is a true multifunction solution offering features and functions that make it ideal for a wide range of high-accuracy pressure calibration applications from simple tool type jobs to complex custody transfer systems.
The multifunctional HPC 6000 is designed to work as a pressure indicator, pressure calibrator, a complete mA loop calibrator (including 24-volt supply), a voltmeter, thermometer and pressure/vacuum generator. All are in a single ruggedized housing with an easy intuitive operating system that fits in the palm of the hand.
The HPC 600 features a user configurable information display, 15 different pressure units, transmitter supply, mA input/output, % error calculation, voltage measurement, serial communications and an external pressure module capability. The accuracy of the HPC is specified in % of reading to ensure an even better accuracy and more applicable pressure range.
The HPC 600 is a superior pressure calibrator for field use that brings laboratory accuracy into the field. The calibrator is delivered as a ready-to-test system, complete with hose, fittings and soft case equipped to meet any need for pressure calibration. An international traceable calibration certificate, including vacuum and electrical parameters, comes standard, and each unit is temperature compensated from -10oC to 50oC/ 14o to 122oF for on-site operations.
More than 60 different JOFRA APM pressure modules extend the application base of the HPC 600 by allowing calibrations in additional ranges. The APM modules are engineered for on-site or laboratory use and are compatible with several other JOFRA calibrators.
The JOFRA HPC600 family of handheld pressure calibrators are 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.
AMETEK Calibration Instruments is among the world’s leading manufacturers of calibration instruments for temperature, pressure, and process signals and a unit of AMETEK Measurement & Calibration Technologies, a division of AMETEK, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of electronic instruments and electromechanical devices with annual sales of more than $2.0 billion.
