Target Application

Aircraft instrumentation calibration.

Description

The Model 6500 Air Data Calibrator can be used to test and calibrate altimeters, airspeed / Mach indicators, Climb indicators, Flight data recorders, Air data computers, and EPR indicators. This rack-mountable Calibrators meet all RVSM requirements and requires only a pressure source and a vacuum source. The use of "Profiles" makes it possible for the operator to run through a test using only a single key on the front panel keypad of these units. It can also be controlled externally as part of an ATE system.

Technical Reference

Rack-mounted calibration.
ATE ready.
