INTRODUCTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The heart of the Blood Pressure Calibration Kit is a Digimano 1000 series Pressure
Meter. The Digimano 1000 is a portable digital instrument designed to measure the
pressure and vacuum of non-corrosive fluids and gases. The versatile instrument
presents its measurement results in one of two engineering units on a large 3 _ digit
LCD display.
The Blood Pressure Calibration Kit contains the 200-2000IN,
The Digimano 1000 has an accuracy of 0.25% full scale. Seven models with different
engineering units and pressure ranges are available. To provide superior performance,
the Digimano 1000 incorporates one of the latest semiconductor pressure sensors.It is
powered by one 9-Volt alkaline battery.
Optionally, an AC adapter may be used. The Digimano 1000 is CE marked and is
shipped with
a Certificate of Calibration traceable to the NIST.
The Digimano 1000 is
a rugged instrument that
performs its measurements quickly, accurately, and
with
ease.
