Simplicity

display combined with the

“Wireless” Keypad

APM and Temperature Connection

Connect to an external APM module to expand
the pressure options, plus a high accuracy RTD to
read temperature.

All input and output
connectors are placed
away from the display and
keypad to give maximum
freedom to operate.

Mini-USB Port

Customize the set-up through
free CrystalControl software.

Function Buttons

The function of each
button is clearly explained
in the bottom of the
display.

Color Display

The new large full-color

advanced simplicity of the
new user interface, makes
the HPC40 Series the
easiest-to-use pressure
calibrator available.

Cursor Keys

Cursor keys help you to
navigate through the
display to perform set up
functions and ne tune
values.

Unique “Non-Menu” User Interface

Easy to use single layer user interface. No deep menu

structure! Operate and set up the HPC40 Series to perform

your tasks quickly and intuitively.

CPF Pressure Connections

Includes patented, leak-free, nger-tight
CPF connection ttings.

Pressure Your Way

With multiple pressure options the HPC40 Series  ts into any pressure calibration job.

Sensors

Choose between a single sensor or a wide range dual sensor version.

Pressure Ranges

Choose your pressure range from vacuum to 15 000 psi /1000 bar. Order any

combination of pressure ranges without limitations. Because the accuracy is 0.035%

of reading, one HPC40 Series can typically replace several gauges or calibrators.

Absolute Pressure

Add the BARO option to toggle between gauge and absolute pressure on all ranges.

APM Pressure Module

Add an external APM CPF Series pressure module to read up to three pressures using a single device.

Di erential Pressure

Read di erential pressure between

any of the three available sensors (including the

external APM CPF Series module). A special tare

feature allows you to normalize both readings

at elevated static pressures, resulting in a more

accurate di erential pressure.

Current, Voltage, Switch Test

Full 0 to 24 mA loop calibrator. Measure and source

(including step & ramp) with external loop power or

internal 24 VDC loop power supply. On top of that it

also measures 0 to 55 mA. Use the high speed switch

mode screen to detect switch open and closures.

Thermometer

Use HPC40 Series as a high accuracy thermometer.

Works with RTD´s and CvD equations, to obtain

true temperature, based on “true ohm” technology!

Intelligent Memory Slots

The HPC40 Series can store up to 5 screens (both

upper and lower windows). The next time you

need to perform your test, simply recall the previ-

ous stored settings and the HPC40 Series is ready

to use.

More Useful Features

Scaling: When testing a transmitter, it can be bene cial to

view the input in units other than mA. For example, if measuring

a 4-20 signal on a 0 to 30 psi

transmitter, the upper dis-

play will show 12 mA when

15 psi is applied. The HPC40

Series will perform this calcu-

lation for you, displaying the

mA

value as psi. % Error Calculation: The HPC40 Series

can calculate pressure vs. mA error as a percentage of the 4-20

psi pressure span, and it will calculate and display the percent

error in addition to the mA reading. This eliminates the need to

manually calculate the error percentage.

testing a pulsating pressure signal, use the dampening feature

to smooth out the measurements, making them easier to read.

Min/Max: With an update rate of 10 readings per second,

the HPC40 Series is perfect for pressure safety valve testing.

Leak Rate: The HPC40 Series o ers continuous measure-

ment of rate / stability.

mA loop span. For example,

if you are testing a 30 psi full

scale pressure transmitter

with a corresponding 4-20

mA signal, you can program

into the calibrator a 0 to 30

Lab Accuracy in the Field

Active Temperature Compensation

The HPC40 Series is the world’s rst combined pressure and mA loop

calibrator to be fully temperature compensated from -20 to 50° C. You can

count on the same accuracy whether measuring pressure, current, volt-

age, or temperature.

Calibrate with Confidence Anywhere

Take measurements with up to 0.035% of reading accuracy.

Every HPC40 Series includes an ISO 17025 calibration report - NIST trace-

able, A2LA accredited (#2601.01), internationally recognized by ILAC - with

test data at 5 temperatures, proving our calibrators meet specications

throughout their full temperature range. Other manufacturers charge

extra for a report with data only at room temperature.

Fittings for Life™

Pump Systems

Combine the HPC40 Series with any of our

ready to use AMETEK pump systems, to provide a

complete calibration kit. Our line of pressure gen-

eration products includes everything from small

pneumatic hand pumps to a precision, hydraulic

pressure comparator capable of generating up to

15 000 psi/1000 bar.

Crystal Pressure Fittings are machined in high-strength

316 Stainless Steel to operate at 10 000 psi/700 bar. Remov-

able CPF adapters shift everyday thread wear away from the HPC40 Series’

ports, while a self-venting weep hole alerts you before you disconnect

from a pressurized system.
