ADCS-601-AF is a fully automated reference level Air Data Calibration Standard for the verification and
calibration of air data range instruments, in particular Air Data Test Sets (ADTS). ADCS-601-AF’s intended
function is the static pressure calibration of Pt and Ps range pressure transducers with very low measurement
uncertainty. ADCS-601-AF is not intended to duplicate the functions of an ADTS in calibrating and testing on-
board aircraft instruments.
ADCS-601-AF covers the pressure range of 1 to 380 kPa (0.3 to 120 inHg) in absolute and gauge modes
with fully automated operation and state of the art uncertainty.
ADCS-601-AF is an integrated system made up of several instruments that work together under the control of
ADCS Tools software running on a personal computer. Operator interaction with ADCS-601-AF is
accomplished through the keyboard, pointing device and display of the system controller (personal computer).
The heart of the system is a fully automated PG7601 piston gauge or pressure balance that covers the
range of 15 to 380 kPa (4.5 to 120 inHg). The PG7601 range is extended down to 1 kPa (0.3 inHg) by an
FPG8601 force balanced piston gauge with automated pressure control.
