CALYS 50
On-site multifunction calibrator
Simultaneous Measurement and Generation
Protected for on-site use
Easy connection system
Designed with a close collaboration with industrials, Calys 50 integrates all the necessary
functions for adjustment and maintenance of process.
Its ergonomic design and its embedded software allow Calys 50 to be a high performance
calibrator and very easy to use.
IP 54, full protected by an anti-shock sheath, with "easy-connect®" terminals integrated, a
very contrasted backlight display, it will be comfortable to use in all conditions
Its elastomer keypad protects it from dirty and grease marks, the keys allow to use Calys 50
with gloves. It has 10 working configurations recorded by user or user group, to always find
the good configuration for designed and repetitive jobs.

Calys 50: presentation
Calys 50 is a portable calibrator able to measure and to generate simultaneously on 2 isolated channels.
It has a wide backlighted display with high contrast to be used for application in dark room.
Full protected by the sheath, a keypad in lexan protects it from dirties and numerical keypad knocked up is
usable even using protective gloves.
It is able to measure and generate voltage, current, frequency, resistance signals and also resistive probes and
thermocouples.

CALIBRATION
"easy connect" system
This unique system is used by pushing on the
terminal’s top, by inserting:
- Wires with a diameter up to 3 mm,
- Compensated thermocouple connectors,
- Pin terminal on front panel,
and next by releasing.
Wires are tighten between 2 brass plates which
provide an great thermal gradient, so that allows a
very good cold junction compensation for
thermocouples.
Calys 50 allows 4mm connectors and also security
connectors to be connected on the front panel.
Display resolution:
Calys 50 allows the digit number after the dot to be selected: This function is justified by the needs of users
who want or not to display the best resolution for calibration or on the contrary limit it for simple verifications.
Functions:
Calys 50 allows the following physical values to be measured and simulated:
•
•
•
•
•
Voltage
Current
Resistance
Temperature by resistive probes and thermocouples
Frequency for frequency signals and for dry contacts
It is able to perform scaling of process signals and so to correct temperature probes.
It is compatible with HART transmitters by inserting a 250ohms resistance which doesn’t disturb digital data
transfer.
Display
Calys 50 dual display indicates permanently the
measurement value, and also the emitted value, the
gauge and the used functions.
On the top date, time and also external temperature
are also indicated.
During measuring average, maximum, minimum
and the number of measurements are displayed on
the left. While for emission this part of screen
displays all details of ramps, steps and constant
value emission functions.
Drop-down menus are used with the navigator, and
an on-line help is available to make easier
connections of probes and wires.
