DPM4

Parameter Tester
Technical Data

The versatile DPM4 tests and calibrates flow

and pressure generators used in many medical
devices. With several measurements combined
in a single, handheld device, the DPM4 provides
a cost-effective solution, eliminating the need
for multiple test meters.
The DPM4 features a menu-driven interface
for simple operation and an easy-to-read screen
that displays multiple parameter measurements
simultaneously.
Built-to-order, the palm-sized device comes
in four models to meet the varied needs of
biomedical engineers and technicians – the
1G, 1H, 2G, and 2H. All models measure
differential pressure, vacuum, and temperature.
Models 2G and 2H feature a built-in barometer
and measure barometric pressure, flow, and
humidity. The G and H models vary according to
pressure measurement ranges. The 1G and 2G
models measure pressure in the -700 mmHg to
5000 mmHg range, and the 1H and 2H models
measure pressure in the -350 mmHg to 350
mmHg range. All the devices provide highly
accurate test results.
