GEs Druck Range: Dependable Calibration Solutions for Power Operators for over 40 years
Fast, Accurate, Cost Effective Calibration
GEs Druck range of calibration instruments and process plant test tools has a 40 year heritage. Over that time, customers have told us whats important in a calibration instrument and process test tool:
Highlyaccurate
Reliableandheavyduty
Costeffective
Easytousetherebyensuringhighproductivity
Abletobeintegratedtowiderplantsoftware
Thats why GEs Druck range of calibration instruments and process plant tools are all designed to be rugged, highly accurate and always costeffectivetouse.Andwhencombinedwithour various software options, they can provide a comprehensive calibration solution suited to any
Built around our own Sensors
The heart of any calibration instrument or process plant test tool are the sensors. They determine the accuracy, stability and re- calibration period. Thats why GEs Druck range uses our own sensors built by GE. Were one of the only calibration instrument OEMs who manufacture our own sensors. We believe its the best way to deliver the accuracy and stability that customers need.

The Importance of Calibration & Maintenance in the Power Segment
Power Industry Challenges
Runningapowergenerationfacilityisnoteasytoday. Power generators operate in an increasingly competitive market place with new generation coming online almost every day. Distributed generation, such as wind or solar, is providing increasing competition for established generators and keeping them on their toes. Environmental regulations provide another set of challenges that generators have to meet in order to keep operating. Finally electricity demand is growing putting further pressure on generators to meet higher load factors. Operatingapowerplantinthemostefficient,safeand economic way is more important today than ever.
Calibration in the Power segment
Ensuring the turbine and generator systems are operatingattheirmostefficientconfigurationsisakey driver for the competitiveness of power plants. Just a small percentage drift away from the most optimum operating setpoints could impact the bottom line of the business by millions of dollars. Alternativelyallowingemissionstoexceedsomeregulatedlevelcouldincurhugefinestooperatorsas well as environmental damage. Modern power plants rely on many hundreds of process sensors, transmitters, switches, and gauges around the plant covering pressure, temperature, electrical and other parameters to keep the operation in check. But the accuracy of these sensors is only as good as their latest calibration. Sensors drift over time. New sensors are installed and require accurate calibration before they can give reliable and true readings. Calibration is an essential service for any powergeneratortodelivermaximumoperatingefficiencyandmeetalltheirregulatoryobligations.
