(AMETEK: Largo, FL) -- AMETEK Test and Calibration Instruments has expanded the capabilities of its versatile JOFRA HPC600 handheld pressure calibrator. The instrument’s built-in electric pump now allows the calibrator to achieve pressure and vacuum generation up to 20 bar/300 psi with the single touch of a button. Previously the top range was 10 bar/150 psi. Each unit also is individually temperature compensated from –10°C to 50°C (14° to 122°F) for accurate on-site operations, regardless of temperature conditions.

In addition to its enhanced capabilities, the HPC600 offers a true multifunction solution for a broad range of high-accuracy pressure calibration applications, from simple tool-type jobs to complex custody-transfer systems. The device features a user-configurable information display, 15 different pressure units, mA input/output, percentage-error calculation, voltage measurement, serial communications, and an external pressure module capability.
