  • Product details
  • Specification parameters
  • The MC6-Ex is an ATEX, IECEx, and North American-certified calibrator and communicator. It can be used safely even in the most demanding hazardous areas.

    The MC6-Ex is a reliable and stable calibrator with unmatched accuracy for demanding industrial conditions. Each MC6-Ex is delivered with a traceable, accredited calibration certificate as standard as proof of its accuracy.

    Although the MC6-Ex is an intrinsically safe calibrator, there are no compromises when it comes to functionality. It offers calibration capabilities for pressure, temperature, and various electrical signals and includes a multi-bus communicator. The MC6-Ex offers a lot of useful features that support your calibration process and it can even perform fully automatic calibrations.

    The MC6-Ex offers several intuitive user interface modes that are optimized for different use cases and available in multiple languages. The calibrator guides you step-by-step in your calibration work.

    The MC6-Ex contains a multi-bus field communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and Profibus PA proTOCols to calibrate, configure, and trim your smart instruments. All three protocols can be enabled simultaneously.

    The MC6-Ex is a documenting calibrator that communicates with Beamex calibration management software, enabling a fully digitalized calibration process.
