AIR DATA CALIBRATOR MODEL 6580-M1

Air Data Calibrator with built-in pumps & output switching module (6 ports)


Target Application:
Aircraft instrumentation calibration

Description: The 6580-M1 Air Data Calibrator can be used to test and calibrate altimeters, airspeed / Mach indicators, Climb indicators, Flight data recorders, Air data computers, and EPR indicators. These rack-mountable Calibrators meet all RVSM requirements and have built-in pressure and vacuum pumps. The use of “Profiles” makes it possible for the operator to run through a test using only a single key on the front panel keypad of these units. They can also be controlled externally as part of an ATE system. The 6580-M1 has a built-in output switching module (OSM) with 3 Static Ports and 3 Pitot Ports on the rear panel, which can individually be controlled (opened and closed) using external inputs.
