GE Druck DPI880

The GE Druck DPI880 Multi-Function Calibrator is an ultra compact and simple to use tool for testing, configuring and calibrating virtually all process parameters. It measures, sources and simulates mA, mV, V, RTDs, thermocouples, ohms, frequency, pulses and pressure, captures switch values and provides 24 V loop power.

Simultaneous Dual Readings

The DPI 880 reads both input and output parameters, simplifying calibrations and system diagnostics. Calibration values are captured on one screen and adjustments are seen in real time, for example, when making zero and span adjustments.

Programmable Step and Ramp Outputs

Quickly step through calibrations with the %Step output or make zero and full scale adjustments using Span Check. The Ramp output is ideal for delicate analog meters, rate of change indicators and checking valve travel and slew rates.

HART Resistor

The DPI 880 features a HART resistor that can be switched into the loop when required for a HART digital communicator avoiding the inconvenience of carrying a 250 ohm resistor.

Temperature

The DPI 880 measures or simulates RTD or thermocouple sensors and is the ideal tool for checking probes, transmitters, process loops, indicators and controllers. Use the DPI 880 with a temperature probe to provide a versatile thermometer.

The DPI 880's compatibility with 8 RTDs and 12 thermocouples allows probe selection for any thermometer application, e.g. general purpose, high temperature, hygienic and aggressive media.

Frequency

The DPI 880 measures or sources Hz, kHz, CPM and CPH providing a highly accurate calibration standard and versatile test tool for process technicians and electronic engineers. Dedicated features facilitate test and maintenance of electronic circuits, frequency/flow meters, batch counters, tachometers, and motion pickups. An automatic trigger detects the best value regardless of waveform or amplitude.

Pressure

The DPI 880 is compatible with Intelligent Digital Output Sensor (IDOS) Pressure Modules, which are available from 10 in H2O to 10,000 psi (25 mbar to 700 bar). IDOS modules are Plug & Play, requiring no instrument calibration or set-up to provide a fully featured pressure calibrator.
