AMETEK Calibration Instruments has announced Version 4.0 of its popular JOFRACAL documenting reference software for automatic calibration of sensors using a PC. This new version is capable of performing pressure calibration as well as temperature calibration. JOFRACAL professional software controls the complete calibration procedure, stores the results and provides a calibration audit trail through hard-copy certificates. All calibration data are stored for each sensor to monitor drift and optimise recalibration intervals. A scheduler feature allows planning of future calibrations.

JOFRACAL can be used with JOFRA DPC-500, APC, CPC and IPI pressure references, all JOFRA temperature standards, as well as JOFRA AMC900, ASC300 multi signal references and the ASM-800 signal multi scanner. When used with JOFRA ASM-800 signal multi scanner, JOFRACAL can perform a simultaneous automatic calibration on up to 24 pressure or temperature devices at the same time.

JOFRA APC, CPC, IPI, ASC300, AMC900, and ASM-801/803 units can all be used for online calibration. JOFRA APC, CPC and IPI can be used as a pressure reference and JOFRA ASC300 and AMC900 can be used as a pressure reference when an APM pressure module is connected. The JOFRA APC and CPC are excellent for calibrating pressure switches suppliers.

The JOFRA DPC-500 documenting pressure professional calibrator can be used for offline calibration. Work orders created in JOFRACAL can be downloaded to the DPC-500. Results produced on the DPC-500, either from JOFRACAL work orders or from the DPC-500 itself, can be imported back into JOFRACAL and produced as a certificate.
