Overview

PPC4 – Redefining premium performance in a digital pressure calibrator or portable pressure calibrator

• Now with ranges up to 14 MPa (2,000 psi)
• 4 ppm control precision now to as low as 1 kPa absolute (0.15 psia)
• Portable pressure calibrator, available with support in eleven languages

And still delivering:

• Lowest measurement uncertainty available in a transfer standard
• 50:1 control precision turndown for extreme rangeability
• Open architecture with up to four internal and/or external reference pressure transducers
• Real time measurement uncertainty calculation and display

From the cal lab bench top to 24/7 fully automated production testing, there’s a PPC4™ digital pressure calibrator configuration perfect for your pressure transducer calibration application.

• Choice of new advanced local user interface with color display and point-and-click navigation or economical basic interface
• New Command Interpreter allows PPC4 as drop-in replacement for controllers in legacy pressure transducer calibration and test systems without costly software changes.
• New “f class” Q-RPT module for full scale performance at lower cost

The basic and advanced PPC4 includes all the pressure transducer calibration features you expect in a state-of-the-art digital pressure calibrator

The importance of control precision is increasing with the recent trend for covering multiple pressure ranges with a single calibrator/ controller.
