Fluke Calibration now offers the 700HPPK Pneumatic Test Pump Kit, a rugged, portable tool that generates and adjusts pneumatic pressures up to 21 MPa without requiring a nitrogen bottle or other external pressure supplies. It is ideal for generating high pressure in the field to devices under test (DUTs) such as transmitters, controllers and analog gauges.
The unit reaches pressure in 20 seconds and a detachable pressure adjustment system allows technicians to make fine pressure adjustments to 0,05% of reading, or better.
The lightweight and portable pneumatic pressure kit is designed for use in the laboratory or the field, with collapsible feet and a built-in handhold making it portable. Inline filter and desiccant systems protect the device against contamination from the DUT and it works on almost any surface, so technicians do not need a laboratory bench or flat area in the field.
The 700HPPK has the versatility to cover a wide range of workloads. It features a 2-metre pressure line and assorted pressure fittings to connect to a variety of DUTs for wide workload coverage. Its ¼ NPT female reference gauge connector facilitates easy reference gauge switching. No extra tools are required, reducing the equipment and accessories technicians need to carry to the job site. The calibration manifold attaches and detaches smoothly via quick detent pins that reduce setup and pack-up time. A second model, the 700HPP, is available specifically for high pressure source users.
