Preface
Druck multifunction calibrators are an all-in-one solution for your pressure measurement and
generation applications. The DPI620G multifunction process calibrator, which has HART® /
FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus / Profibus® communicator functions, has a modular construction that
makes possible future expansion. One type of calibrator is available for use in safe areas and one
for use in hazardous areas.
The calibrator can do many tasks, for example:
• to read and make voltage, current, frequency, and resistance signals
• to make records of data and the automation of calibration procedures
• to test and calibrate electrical equipment, pressure sensors, gauges, switches,
thermocouples, RTDs, and other types of equipment.
Safety
This equipment is safe when you use the procedures in this manual. Do not use this equipment
for any other purpose than that specified. This is because the protection given by the equipment
can be reduced or canceled.
WARNING Do not apply pressure greater than the maximum safe working
pressure.
It is dangerous to attach an external source of pressure to the PV 62XG and
PV624 pressure generation stations that use the DPI620G. Use only the internal
mechanisms to set and control pressure in the pressure calibrator.

English–DPI620G Instruction Manual | 1
Introduction
1. Overview
1.1 Introduction
The Druck DPI620G is a battery powered instrument for electrical measurements, a source of
currents and voltages, and for HART® communications. The DPI620G supplies the power and
user interface options for all available functions. The touchscreen can have a maximum of six
channel screens in which to show different parameters.
You use the CALIBRATOR function in the DPI620G user interface to calibrate and test pressure
sensors and to test different types of switch.
The use of either a type 62XG or PV624 pressure station adds functions to the DPI620G. Refer
to manuals (K0451 for the 62XG and K0457 for the PV624) for information about these pressure
stations.
The Druck DPI620G can have Bluetooth hardware for use with the PV624 device. Refer to the
PV624 documentation for information about how to use the DPI620G user interface with this
communication mode.
This version of the manual is applicable to software revisions DK420 v4.0000 and above.
1.2 What is in the Box
The following items are supplied with the DPI620G (standard option):
• Druck DPI620G multifunction calibrator
• Li-polymer battery
• DC power supply
• Stylus
• AC probe
• Set of six test leads
• This PDF manual
•Quick start guide (K0542).

Chapter 1. Overview
1.3 Optional Items
The items below are available for use on the Druck DPI620G:
Optional Item Description
Pressure Module Carrier, MC620G – this attaches
directly to the DPI620G to let pressure be applied to
the instrument. The MC620G also holds pressure
sensing modules, to make a fully integrated
pressure instrument when put together with the
PM620 / PM620T pressure module.
Pressure Module, PM620 / PM620T – this is a
module that senses pressure and attaches to the
pressure module carrier (MC620G) or a Pressure
Station (PV62XG, PV624). There are several
pressure ranges available with the PM620 /
PM620T pressure modules.
Pressure Station, PV62XG – if the DPI620G
attaches to a Pressure Station that has a pressure
module, it becomes a fully integrated pressure
calibrator.
Hybrid Pressure Station, PV624 - this becomes a
fully integrated pressure callibrator when a
DPI620G attaches to it. This station uses electrical
power from its battery to semi-automate some
calibrator functions.

Chapter 1. Overview
1.5 General Safety Precautions
Read and obey all the operator's local health and safety regulations and safe working procedures.
These are some safety precautions:
• Use only the approved tools, materials and spares to operate and maintain the equipment.
• Use the equipment only for its given purpose.
• Use all applicable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
• Do not use sharp objects on the touch-screen.
• Make sure of absolute cleanliness for the instrument use.
• Important damage can be caused if equipment is contaminated before it connects to this
instrument.
• Connect only clean equipment to the instrument. Use an external Dirt Moisture Trap to
prevent contamination.
• Some liquid and gas mixtures are dangerous. This includes mixtures that occur because of
contamination. Make sure that the equipment is safe to use with the necessary media.
• Read and obey all applicable WARNING and CAUTION signs.
• Make sure that:
i. All work areas are clean and clear of unwanted tools, equipment and materials.
ii. Make sure that you obey all local health and safety and environmental regulations when
you discard unwanted materials.
iii. All equipment is serviceable.
1.6 Software Configuration and Security
Before use, make sure the relevant instrument settings are as expected. Other personnel that
have access to the instrument, can have made unknown changes. Visually inspect the instrument
for this type of change, before measurements are taken and calibrations done with the
instrument.
1.7 Warnings
WARNING Do not ignore the specified limits for the instrument or its
related accessories. This can cause injuries.
Do not use this equipment for any other purpose than that specified.
Do not use the instrument in locations with explosive gas, vapor or dust. There

Electrical Safety
1.8 Electrical Safety
1.9 Pressure Warnings
WARNING The DC input to the DPI620G is rated at 5Vdc ± 5% 4 Amps.
External circuits must have the applicable insulation to the mains supply.
To prevent electrical shocks or damage to the instrument, do not connect more
than 30V CAT I between the terminals or between the terminals and the ground
(earth).
This instrument uses a rechargeable Lithium Polymer (Li-ion) battery pack. To
prevent an explosion or fire do not short circuit this battery.
The power supply input range to the optional power supply unit is 100 –260Vac,
50 to 60 Hz, 250mA, installation category CAT II.
When you use the optional power supply unit, put it in a position so it does not
obstruct the supply disconnecting device.
Note that the temperature range for operation and storage of the optional PSU is
not the same as that for the DPI620G. Mains PSU operating temperature range
0°C to +40°C, storage temperature range -40°C to +70°C.
To make sure the display shows the correct data, disconnect the test leads
before power is set to ON or before the selection of a different measure or source
function.
Keep the leads free from all contaminants.
WARNING It is dangerous to attach an external source of pressure to a
PV 62XG or PV624 pressure station. Use only the internal mechanisms to set and
control pressure in the pressure calibrator.
you To prevent a dangerous release of pressure, isolate and bleed the system before
you disconnect a pressure connection.
To prevent a dangerous release of pressure, make sure that all the related pipes,
hoses and equipment have the correct pressure rating, are safe to use and are
correctly attached.
To prevent damage to the PV62XG, PV624, MC620G, PM620 or PM620T, only use
the equipment within the specified pressure limits.
Do not exceed the maximum pressures stated in the applicable component
manual for the device under test.
Reduce pressure at a controlled rate when you vent the instrument to
atmosphere.
Carefully release all pressure in pipes to atmospheric pressure before you
disconnect or connect to the device under test.
Always wear applicable eye protection when you work with pressurized
equipment.
