Mesa Labs Defender 520

Mesa Labs Defender 520

The Mesa Labs Defender 520 (High) Enhanced Volumetric Primary Flow Standard Calibrator, intermediate model of the Defender Series, featuring DryCal technology. Ideal for: volumetric flow calibration where temperature/pressure measurements are required. ±1% of reading calibrations. Available from CleanAir in High (300-30,000 ccm) flow range configuration. Each factory-calibrated instrument includes ISO-17025 NIST-traceable certifications.

All Defender Series products offer single, continuous, and burst reading options. Connect your computer to the Defender’s RS-232 port for real-time flow and data capture using DryCal Pro Software.

Consider the Defender 520 as a replacement for the discontinued BIOS Drycal DC-2 Air Flow Calibrator.
