The Importance of Portable Pressure Calibrators for Industrial Instrumentation Technicians

The Importance of Portable Pressure Calibrators for Industrial Instrumentation Technicians

Portable pressure calibrators are important for industrial instrumentation technicians because they allow them to accurately and efficiently calibrate pressure measuring devices, such as pressure gauges, transmitters, and switches, in the field. This is especially important in industries where process control and safety are critical, such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.

Accurate pressure measurement is essential for maintaining process control and ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment. Portable pressure calibrators allow technicians to calibrate pressure measuring devices on site, ensuring that they are properly calibrated and able to accurately measure pressure. This helps to ensure that the process is operating within the desired range and reduces the risk of equipment failure or process upsets.

In addition, portable pressure calibrators are often used in field service and maintenance applications, where it is not practical to bring the pressure measuring device back to a calibration laboratory. By using a portable calibrator, technicians can quickly and easily calibrate the device on site, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.

Overall, portable pressure calibrators are an essential tool for industrial instrumentation technicians, as they allow them to accurately calibrate pressure measuring devices and ensure the safety and reliability of process control systems.

Provide Your Field Technicians A Safer, More Compact, and Efficient Portable Pressure Calibrator

Druck DPI610E

Without the proper equipment, pressure calibration can be challenging.


The men and women who do it endure piercing cold and scorching heat. Work occurs on offshore rigs, in enormous refineries, along massive pipelines, and pharmaceutical plants. Field techs climb ladders in the wind, trek to remote sites in the snow, and peer at gauges in the sun. Instrument techs keep the world functioning. The gear must stay up.

Modern calibrators may not help much. The devices are sometimes ill-equipped for the environment, have a small pressure range, are challenging to operate in confined spaces, or are hard to read in bright light.

The Druck DPI610E keeps the simple design and other appealing qualities that helped fuel the DPI610's popularity, but it also delivers more. The DPI610E is lightweight and straightforward to operate. It has a touch screen operated while wearing gloves. Aside from the screen, a row of buttons that a technician can use when working in frigid conditions with their hands encased in thick gloves. 

The DPI610E operates in practically every condition. From the chill of winter to the seething heat. The device is intrinsically safe, which means it cannot create enough heat, energy, or spark to trigger an explosion in a hazardous environment, and it can contain a blast if one occurs. The DPI610E gives specialists the absolute peace of mind they require to successfully accomplish their complex, crucial tasks.

Supply Chain Reliability for Pressure Sensors

Supply Chain Reliability for Pressure Sensors

Massive disruptions to global supply networks began with the global pandemic in March 2020. The troubles swiftly expanded to worldwide manufacturing, particularly those products requiring silicon chips, semiconductors, and other digital and electronic components. Pressure sensor producers, for example, are experiencing extraordinarily long lead times on all sensors due to the supply chain issue. 

Despite global chip scarcity and the impact of supply chain restrictions, Druck has continuously expanded its production capacity to satisfy explosive demand for its pressure sensors.

The UNIK 5000 is a high-performance configurable solution to pressure measurement employing modular design and lean manufacturing techniques. Based on micro-machined silicon technology and analog circuitry, the combination enables best-in-class performance for stability, low power, and frequency response. The UNIK 5000 platform allows you to quickly build up your sensor to match your precise needs and configure a specific solution to your pressure measurement requirements. Lead times for the UNIK 5000 are still maintained at 3-4 weeks!
