GENERAL INFORMATION

Your New TechChek 830-KP

Lighten your load… take the TechChek 830-KP to every site. It’s like bringing a cartload of test equipment from the shop to the control room or the field. The TechChek 830-KP sources and reads DC like a milliamp or voltage calibrator, simulates and measures T/Cs & RTDs like a temperature calibrator, generates and counts frequency and Counts-Per- Minute like a frequency calibrator and displays pressure like a precision test gauge. Troubleshooting? It checks continuity with a beeper and measures AC line voltage like a multimeter!

Calibrate Milliamp Inputs

Calibrate controllers, recorders and other devices in 4 to 20 or 0 to 20 mA loops. Source and read 0.00 to 24.00 mA, or Simulate a 2-Wire Transmitter. Use the optional AC adaptor for continuous operation. Display to 0.01 mA , 0.1 % of 4 to 20 and 0.1 % DP Flow.

Calibrate 2-Wire Transmitters

Easily calibrate 2-Wire Pressure and Electronic Transmitters by connecting the TechChek 830-KP to both the input and output of the transmitter. The TechChek 830- KP will simultaneously indicate the input and output of the transmitter on the graphical display.

Calibrate Pressure Systems

Read pressure with extreme accuracy using an external QuikCal pressure module in a companion ModPak module holder. Attach the module directly to the pressure connection for the best accuracy or with optional tubing for tight spots. Display to five digits within 0.025% of reading in up to 20 engineering units including psi, pa, Kpa, Mpa,
