2. Druck and GE
Druck was established in 1970 to develop and manufacture
silicon diaphragm piezoresistive pressure transducers for the
aerospace industry−jet engine development and wind
tunnels. Druck was acquired by GE in 2002 for its
measurement and control product line.
Incorporating Druck transducer expertise, the first Druck
portable pressure calibrator, the DPI 600, was introduced in
July 1981.
Since then, more than 200,000 DPI 600 Series calibrators
have been sold, including the highly successful DPI 610.

3. Druck DPI 610 Series
DPI 610 has been the market
leader—an industry workhorse
referred to as the “Druck.” It
featured:
• 0.025% FS accuracy
• Built-in pressure vacuum pump
• Dual readout: pressure and
electrical
• 24 Vdc power supply
• Documenting functionality with
RS232 communication

4. Meet the Druck DPI 611
The new DPI 611 builds on
the 600 Series legacy and
has:
• Increased accuracy for
pressure and electrical
• A smaller, lighter yet more
rugged form
• An improved pump
• Digital sensor technology
• A simplified interface
• USB connectivity

5. What makes DPI 611 a “Druck”?
• Druck expertise in design and manufacture of
high accuracy pressure sensors, measurement
and digital electronics, ergonomic enclosures and
precision mechanical pressure systems
• Total control over design, development,
manufacturing in UKAS accredited facility
• GE engineering expertise and global support

6. Why is DPI 611 so good?
• 50% smaller and lighter than
DPI 610
• Generates 0 to 300 psi in less
than 30 seconds
• Creates 95% vacuum
• Pressure measurement
accuracy 0.0185% FS
• Significantly improved electrical
“total uncertainty”

7. Why is DPI 611 so good?
• Low power requirements (AA
batteries, Li-ion rechargeable
or line power)
• Simplified touch screen
interface with application
DASHBOARD, quick TASK
selection, FAVORITES storage
• Calculates PASS/FAIL errors,
documents results
• Interface with calibration
software

8. The engineering behind DPI 611
• DPI 611’s innovative design
combines carefully selected
materials with high-tolerance
machining for perfect finishes.
• Advanced materials and precision
molding make DPI 611 rugged
and weatherproof.
• State-of-the-art microelectronics
produce accuracy and processing
capability with a unique simple-to-use
interface.

9. Generate 300 psi in your hand
• Generate 300 psi or 95%
vacuum holding the instrument
in one hand
• Just 30 seconds to generate
maximum pressure, even with
3-foot hose connected to the
device under test
• Ergonomic design for firm
hand-held use and instrument
security on test bench
• Precision vent valve for
decreasing pressures
• Built-in over-pressure
protection

10. Get better pressure accuracy
• The digitally corrected Druck
pressure sensor uses
advanced silicon technology to
achieve more than twice the
accuracy of the DPI 610
• Total uncertainty gives
complete confidence between
annual calibrations
• Pressure ranges: -14.5 to 15,
30, 100, 150 and 300 psi

11. And better electrical
• Measure and source DC voltage and current with best
in class total uncertainty
• Provides 24Vdc loop power
• All electrical functions through four weatherproof
sockets
• Built-in loop calibrator: measure DC voltage to 2000 mV
and 30 V, current to 55 mA
• Source voltage to 24V,
current to 24 mA (with or
without loop power)

12. Get ready in less time
• GE Druck designed Quick-to-
Fit adaptor system for leak-tight
pressure connection in the field
• No tools or sealing required
• Damaged adaptors simply
replaced with no repair
downtime
• Proven to significantly
reduce set-up time

13. Touch screen makes it intuitive
The DPI 611 uses the same interface design
as the unique DPI 620 Genii multifunction
calibrator/communicator
 The DASHBOARD allows quick application
selection
 The TASK menu provides a library of popular
configurations
 A FAVORITES menu gives quicker access to
regularly used and customized TASKS
 The touch screen is easier to
use than complex keypads
with special function keys
 Connection diagrams can be
viewed on the screen
2. Touch to
make selection
1. Swipe from
right to left
3. Touch to
select the
TASK

14. Automate, document, connect
The DPI 611 is a simple-to-use
“everyday” tool for maintaining and
calibrating pressure instruments, but
it also has the advanced features of
the DPI 620 Genii. It can automate
calibration procedures, calculate
errors and interface with calibration
and maintenance systems.
 Automated calibration procedures
 PASS/FAIL error analysis
 Multi-channel data logging
 Connectivity with leading calibration and
maintenance software, including GE’s
4Sight
 Export results to Excel with .csv files

15. Advanced capabilities: Loop Calibrator
Step and ramp mA output
Simply configured for simulating
transmitter outputs into control
loops, testing valve positioners
and checking safety systems
• % step: for example, 25%
provides 5 test points of 4, 8,
12, 16 and 20 mA
• Defined step: the step size is
defined as a value in mA
• Span check: for example, 4
and 20 mA for checking zero
and FS
• Ramp: perfect for
dynamically testing switches

16. Advanced capabilities
• Switch test: automates
switch testing
• Pressure leak test: detects
leaks and determines leak
rates
• Nudge: simply use the
up/down keys to determine
trip values

17. Additional capabilities
• Max/min: captures maximum and
minimum values and calculates the
mean
• Relief valve: captures the venting
pressure of a relief valve
• Scaling: for example, read mA or V
output as pressure
• Resolution: match the display
resolution to that of the test device
• Help: view wiring connection
diagrams and the user manual on-screen

18. IDOS external pressure sensors
• Druck Intelligent Digital Output
Sensors for increased range
capability
