## Primary Flow Calibration Standard for High Capacity Gas Flow

This powerful calibrator, featuring our patented proven DryCal® Technology is changing the game of flow calibration. The instrument has a range of from 5 to 1500 standard liters per minute (slpm) – more than ten times the volume of any other piston prover on the market! The portability of this model, which weighs in at 90lbs. is a dramatic and welcomed improvement over the cumbersome bell provers labs have used in the past.

For use with non-corrosive, non-condensing, non-combustible gases, less than 70% humidity.

Combine our DryCal primary piston provers with our new [Integrator Pro](http://lynton-sb3-mesalabs-20969579.hs-sites.com/products/occupational-health-safety/integrator-pro) to set up an analog MFC and MFM calibration station and power and control up to two voltage and two current mass flow devices at the same time.

- Proven DryCal Technology – Accurate and reliable gas flow readings independent of gas species measured.
- Innovative – Replace large bell provers with a bench top system; upstream flow measuring capacity of 1,500 slpm
- Easy to setup and use – plug and play installation with simple push button operation
- Quality and Expertise — ±0.08% Scope of Accreditation for gas flow by NVLAP of NIST; Over 20 years experience providing training, installations, system consulting and custom solution
