Introduction
The DPI 841 Frequency Calibrator and DPI 842 Frequency
Loop Calibrator are part of the Druck DPI 800 series of
hand held instruments.
The DPI 800 series uses Intelligent Digital Output Sensor
(IDOS) technology to give instant plug and play
functionality with a range of Universal Measurement
Modules (UMM). Example: the Universal Pressure Module
(UPM).
The DPI 841/842 include these functions:
FunctionDPI 841DPI 842
Measure/supply a frequency
or a pulse count.
Step/Ramp functionsAutomatic/Manual
Communications portIDOS or RS232
Language selectionYes
Measure pressure/Leak test ** External IDOS UPM
** Snapshot Up to 1000 displays with a date/time
Measure mANo0 - 55 mA
HART® resistorNoYes
V dc outputNo 24 V
Switch testNoYes
Other functionsHold, Maximum/Minimum/Average,

Safety
Before you use the instrument, make sure that you read
and understand all the related data. This includes: all local
safety procedures, the instructions for the UMM (if
applicable), and this publication.
WARNING
• It is dangerous to ignore the specified limits for the
instrument or to use the instrument when it is not in
its normal condition. Use the applicable protection
and obey all safety precautions.
• Do not use the instrument in loca tions with explosive
gas, vapor or dust. There is a risk of an explosion.

[EN] English - 1K395 Issue 1
Safety (Continued)
• To prevent electrical shocks or damage to the
instrument, do not connect more than 30V between
the terminals, or between the terminals and the
ground (earth).
• UPM only. To prevent a dangerous release of
pressure, isolate and bleed the system before you
disconnect a pressure connection.
Before you start an operation or procedure in this
publication, make sure that you have the necessary skills
(if necessary, with qualifications from an approved
training establishment). Follow good engineering practice
at all times.
