12. Calibration Procedures
Druck has a calibration service that obeys international standards and thus is traceable.
Druck recommends you send the instrument to the manufacturer or an approved service agent
fo
r calibration. If you use an alternative calibration facility, make sure that it uses the standards
that are in this chapter. Only approved personnel must calibrate the device.
12.1 Before you start the calibration
Get your parts only from Druck or an approved Druck supplier. To do an accurate calibration of
the DPI620G device, use the following:
• Calibration equipment specified in Table 12-1.
• A stable temperature environment: 21 ± 1°C (70 ± 2°F).
Keep the equipment in the calibration environment for a minimum of two hours before you start a
c
a
libration procedure. Make sure that the time and date on the instrument are correct. Note that
the CH1 specification does not apply to the DPI620G-B.
