Beamex® MC2: Practicality for calibration
Practicality in calibration. The Beamex® MC2 series
includes three different hand-held calibrators for
field use: the MC2 Pressure/Electrical Calibrator,
the MC2 Temperature/Electrical Calibrator and the
MC2 Multifunction Calibrator. The MC2 is a compact-
sized and easy-to-use hand-held calibrator. It has a
large graphical display, a menu-based interface and
full numerical keyboard. Being a Beamex calibrator,
MC2 represents the high, uncompromised quality
standards evident in other Beamex calibration
equipment.

Beamex® MC2-IS: Practical tool for calibration

in hazardous environments
The Beamex® MC2-IS Intrinsically Safe Multifunction
Calibrator is an ATEX and IECEx certified
calibrator designed for use in potentially explosive
environments such as offshore platforms, oil
refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants where
inflammable gases may be present. It connects to
almost 20 available Beamex intrinsically safe external
pressure modules. The calibrator has a compact size
and design.

Beamex® MC2 and Beamex® MC2-IS – a series of 4 different practical calibrators.

Features of the MC2 and MC2-IS
Accuracy guaranteed
The Beamex® MC2 and Beamex® MC2-IS calibrators are
extremely accurate process calibrators. As proof of this, each
MC2 and MC2-IS calibrator is delivered with a traceable,
accredited calibration certificate.

Compact and user-friendly

The MC2 and MC2-IS calibrators are compact-sized,
lightweight portable calibrators with a large graphical display
and multilingual interface. They have a full numerical keyboard.
Using the MC2 and MC2-IS is quick and easy.

Robust field calibrator

The MC2 and MC2-IS are robust and made for tough use. The
impact protectors and membrane keyboard make them field
compatible and weatherproof.

Wide range of configuration possibilities

The MC2 and MC2-IS provide a number of configuration
possibilities, such as both internal and external pressure
modules. For instance, the MC2-IS connects to almost 20
available Beamex intrinsically safe external pressure modules.

Make it safe with the MC2-IS

The MC2-IS is an intrinsically safe, ATEX and IECEx certified,
multifunction calibrator. It is designed for use in potentially
explosive environments, such as offshore platforms, oil
refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants where
inflammable gases may be present.
