## Beamex MC6-Ex

The [MC6-Ex](https://www.beamex.com/calibrators/beamex-mc6-ex/) is an intrinsically safe, highly accurate, field calibrator and communicator. It is ATEX, IECEx and North American certified and can be used in all hazardous zones/divisions.

It also includes a field communicator for HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and Profibus protocols. Use the MC6-Ex with Beamex calibration software to enable a paperless calibration process.

## External Pressure Modules EXT-IS

The [EXT-IS](https://www.beamex.com/calibrators/beamex-ext-modules/) modules are intrinsically safe external high-accuracy pressure modules. Using external modules will increase your configuration possibilities and add flexibility, making it possible to calibrate more pressure ranges with the same calibrator.
