»

Advanced step and ramp

functions

Easy zero / full span entry, step / ramp
functions including user defined time
settings

»

Fast RTD simulation

CSC201 will work with pulsed excitation
transmitters and PLC´s

»

Calibrate pressure

CSC201 will measure or calibrate pressure;
just apply a JOFRA APM and a JOFRA
calibration pump

»

Optimal display

Large ClearBrite™ display, optimal readout
in sunlight or dark

JOFRA CSC201 is a compact temperature signal calibrator. Calibrate or
measure thermocouples and RTD´s. A large number of predefined sen­sor types are available. Easy-to-use, intuitive user interface, with com­prehensive ramp and step functions. All functions are displayed on the
large ClearBrite™ display. The high accuracy of CSC201 has not been
achieved on account of fragile measurement or source circuitry, CSC201
has fuseless protection – this might save you a calibrator or lower your
cost of ownership.

JOFRA APM pressure modules

When used with pressure modules the CSC201 becomes
a pressure calibrator / indicator. The APM series of pres­sure modules by JOFRA are compatible with the AMC900,
AMC910, ASC300, ASC301, or HPC500, HPC502 and
HPC600 calibrators. The APM external pressure modules
include more than 24 models available with gauge, abso­lute, differential, and vacuum pressure references and in
metric and imperial engineering units. The modules are
engineered for in-plant, field or laboratory use. They are
ready-to-use with immediate recognition of the module
once it is plugged into the calibrator.
