The
MesaLabs
Bios DryCal FlexCal
series calibrator is a precision primary flow calibrator comprised
of three models with flow ranges from 5 ccm to 50 LPM, capable of
volumetric and standardized flow measurement accuracy of 0.5% of
the reading. An economical option for small analytical laboratories,
research & development organizations, manufacturing and calibration
labs that may not need the 0.15% accuracies of the MetLab 800 series
calibrators. Perfect, for instance, for use in calibrating industrial
mass flow meters.
- USB connectivity
- Flow ranges
from 5 ccm to 50 LPM
- Quick start
operation
- Graphical
LCD display
- User-selectable
flow units and time intervals
The FlexCal
is small, easy to carry and ready for even the most demanding of
applications. When using the Mesa Labs FlexCal, you are guaranteed
high accuracy with high confidence without the use of soap bubbles,
timers, or heavy mercury provers. Quick start
operation Graphical LCD display user-selectable flow units and time
intervals.
A versatile,
push-button flow meter, the FlexCal is a primary flow standard which
enables the user to accurately calibrate a variety of instruments
while maintaining an ISO 17025-traceable audit trail.
