Model 6500-HA

HighAccuracyRVSMCompliantATEReady
Target Application

Aircraft instrumentation calibration.

Description

The 6500-HA (High-Accuracy) 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 calibrator meets 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.

It can also be controlled externally as part of an ATE system.

Technical Reference

High-accuracy calibration.
RVSM compliant.
