The IDT600-2 has no diaphragm or other internal components which could create a pressure drop
The IDT600-2 has no diaphragm or other internal components which could create a pressure drop and does not affect calibration accuracy. The unit is simple to dismantle and easy to clean. It should be periodically cleaned to prevent excessive contaminate build-up which may overflow into the calibrator. The top and bottom sections are simply unscrewed, releasing the transparent chamber which is then wiped clean.
The IDT600-2 is an effective barrier against the transfer of moisture and dirt from an instrument under test to any portable pressure calibrator. Installed directly on the calibrator pressure port, regular use of the IDT600-2 will prevent contamination of the calibrator's pneumatic system, improve long term reliability and reduce maintenance costs. In addition, it prevents dirt or moisture from one device under test being transferred to another via the calibrator.
