The FPVCS is a versatile portable vacuum calibration system, which can be used for numerous applications. The system can be used directly in the process to calibrate instruments in situ, keeping the process up time as long as possible. With it's modular set up, the unit can be configured for any vacuum range with a span from 10⁵ to 1000 torr. In the operation various levels of complexity are possible. From a simple operator's checking tool to a sophisticated diagnosing instrument with appropriate software for control and data processing.

The assembly consist of: a recipient with valves and connectors to hook up with the instruments to be inspected. A manifold of valves and lines which connects the recipient with a membrane pump and an air cooled turbo pump. The vacuum gauging is carried out by high accuracy Absolute Capacitance Manometers or by high accuracy Capacitance Gauging Devices (CDG's). Flokal provides NIST, DKD, NMI and other traceable calibrations over the entire pressure range for these vacuum gauges.

Capasitanse manometers, Pirani gauges, convection enhanced Pirani gauges, other pressure transducers and transmitters and mechanical gauges are typical exmaples of instruments which can be analyzed by the FPVC systems.
