ISO 9001 Manufacturer
Specification Sheet
SS-HPC550Ex
JOFRA HPC550/552Ex calibrators feature deadweight tester accuracy in
a modern digital package.
The HPC550/552Ex can be used in a very broad range of applications
from simple tool type jobs to complex calibration jobs in custody transfer
systems. Including potential hazardous areas in Oil, Gas and Chemical
industries.
The HPC550/552Ex series has been designed to meet high accuracy
pressure calibration applications and faciliate your tasks. HPC550/552Ex
offers features such as user configurable information display, 15 different
pressure units, transmitter supply, mA input, % error calculation, voltage measurement, serial communication, and external pressure module
capability. The accuracy of the HPC550/552Ex calibrators is specified
in % of reading to ensure an even better accuracy and wider applicable
pressure range. The HPC is temperature compensated from 0 to 45ºC/32
to 113ºF for on-site operation. It is a truly superior pressure calibrator for
laboratory and field use, bringing laboratory accuracy into the field.
The pressure calibrator of choice in potential explosive atmospheres. The
intrinsically safe HPC550/552Ex calibrators complies with ATEX / IECEx
certifications and are an extension of JOFRA´s well known pressure calibrator range.
HPC550/552Ex meet the needs of technicians who install, maintain,
calibrate and troubleshoot equipment in petro-chemical plants, on oil
platforms, in refineries, governmental bodies, commercial organizations
and any location subject to the risk of potential explosion hazardous
atmospheres.
Clear graphical display
Large backlit graphical display shows current status and mode, 1, 2
or 3 measurement windows, to suit your applications and demands.
Full set of features
Perform semi-automatic pressure switch tests, leak test, % error calculation, switch in HART resistor or other calibration tasks through the
outstanding functions and features of the HPC550Ex.
Intuitive menu system
Combination of “soft keys” and cursor keypad ensures easy operation.
Temperature measurement
High accuracy temperature measurement port by use of he optional
Pt100 sensor. A superb instrument for easy and convenient temperature measurement.
Electrical connections
HPC calibrators are well equipped and include inputs for mA,
switches and temperature measurements.
Units

Pressure connections
Adapters to 1/4” NPT male and 1/4” BSP female are included as
standard.
What is an Ex area?
Ex areas can be known by different names such as
“Hazardous Locations”, “Hazardous Areas” “Explosive
Atmospheres”, and the like and relate to areas where
flammable liquids, vapours, gases or combustible dusts
are likely to occur in quantities sufficient to cause a fire or
explosion.
The modern day automation of industry has meant an
increased need to use equipment in Ex areas. Such equipment is termed “Ex equipment”.
What is ATEX?
The ATEX directive consists of two EU directives describing which equipment and work environment is allowed in
an environment with an explosive atmosphere.
ATEX derives its name from the French title of the
94/9/EC directive: Appareils destinés à être utilisés en
ATmosphères EXplosibles.
Where does ATEX apply? All the 24 member countries of the European Union, plus Norway, Iceland and
Liechtenstein, are subject to the directives.
Where do you commonly use Ex equipment?
•Automotiverefuelingstationsorpetrolstations
•Oilrefineries,rigsandprocessingplants
•Chemicalprocessingplants
•Printingindustries,paperandtextiles
•Hospitaloperatingtheatres
•Aircraftrefuelingandhangars
•Surfacecoatingindustries
•Seweragetreatmentplants
•Gaspipelinesanddistributioncenters
•Woodworkingareas
•Sugarrefineries
What is IECEx?
The objective of the IECEx System is to facilitate international trade in equipment and services for use in explosive atmospheres, while maintaining the required level of
safety, to offer:
• Internationalconfidenceintheproductassessmentpro-
• HPCExfamilyiscertifiedbyCSA,statingIECExbeing
