August 2018Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
WIKA’s hydraulic and pneumatic service kits are the ideal tools for testing, adjustment and calibration of mechanical and electronic pressure measuring instruments through comparative measurements or for setting of pressure switches.
The pneumatic service kit hydraulic Model CPG-KITH and the hydraulic sevice kit Model CPG-KITP can test instruments up to 40 bar and 700 bar respectively, together with the CPG1500 reference instrument.
These and other tests can take place quickly and reliably in the laboratory or workshop, or on site at the measuring point. With the kit, service and maintenance become more complete, safer and flexible. The kit is high-quality finish, handy and robust, and is also suitable for service use.
Simple functionality and WIKA-Cal software
If one connects the test item and the model CPG1500 precision digital pressure gauge to the test pump, on actuating the pump the same pressure will act on both instruments. Using the fine adjustment valve, the test pressure is set exactly. By comparison of the two measured values at any given pressure value, a check of the accuracy or adjustment of the pressure measuring instrument under test can be carried out.
The collected data from the logger of the digital pressure gauge can be transmitted wirelessly to the WIKA-Cal calibration software for further evaluation. WIKA-Cal also offers, over and above PC-supported calibration, the management of the calibration and instrument data in an SQL database. A WIKA-Wireless interface is available for the data transfer.
