Page 5: Introduction
Introduction (Figure C1) This 2 bar absolute (59 inHg absolute) version of the DPI 610 provides manual generation of pressure and vacuum for testing of aircraft Pitot and Static systems. It has a special pneumatic manifold and output port assembly, the regulated output of the hand-pump prevents overpressure/vacuum of the aircraft’s Pitot and Static systems. -
