Overview

DPI 620-IS

MC 620-IS

PM 620-IS

Pressure calibrator

The intrinsically safe, advanced modular calibrator (AMC) is part of a set of hand-held modules that can be quickly put together to include a wide range of calibrator functions.

Advanced modular calibrator, DPI 620-IS (this user manual): This is a battery-powered instrument for electrical measure and source operations and HART® communications; see Table A1 (front cover). It also supplies the power and user interface functions for all the add-on modules. Use the touch-screen to display up to six different parameters.

Pressure module carrier, MC 620-IS (this user manual):

This attaches to the DPI 620-IS calibrator to make a fully integrated pressure indicator instrument. To measure and display pneumatic or hydraulic pressures, up to two interchangeable pressure modules can be used at a time.

When not in use fit blanking device (part number 191-369).

Pressure modules, PM 620-IS (this user manual):

Optional item. These modules attach to the pressure module carrier (MC 620-IS) or to a pressure station (PV 62x-IS) to give the DPI 620-IS calibrator the necessary pressure measurement functionality. They are fully interchangeable “plug and play” modules with no initial set-up or user calibration.

Pressure stations, PV 62x-IS (user manual - K0462:

Optional item. To make a fully integrated pressure calibrator, attach the DPI 620-IS calibrator to one of the three pressure stations:

•two pneumatic pressure stations gives an accurate and controlled pressure and vacuum conditions:

PV 621-IS: -950 mbar to 20 bar (-13.5 to 300 psi) version PV 622-IS: -950 mbar to 100 bar (-13.5 to 1500 psi) version

•one hydraulic pressure station gives an accurate and controlled hydraulic pressure conditions:

PV 623-IS: 0 to 1000 bar (15000 psi)

The advanced modular calibrator (AMC-IS) and the pressure module (PM 620-IS) are part of a set of hand-held modules that can be quickly put together to include a wide range of calibrator functions.

To give the attached equipment overpressure protection, there are pressure relief valves (PRV) available for all the pressure stations.
