Safety Instructions
Please follow the instructions and procedures described in this manual. They are designed so that you get the most out of your pressure system and avoid any
personal injuries and/or damage to the system.
„„„„ „ GENERAL CAUTIONS
•
Avoid knocking, bumping or dropping the pressure system. This can cause permanent damage to the system and loss of accuracy.
•
The pressure system must not be used for any purposes other than those described in this manual and for any application other than precision pressure
calibration jobs.
•
The pressure system should only be used by TRAINED PERSONNEL.
•
None of our calibration systems are cleaned or prepared for OXYGEN MEDIUMS. DO NOT USE our systems for this purpose.
•
Do not disconnect any parts from the system when pressurized.
•
Do not connect any external pressure source to this system. This system is designed to test pressure measuring devices connected to the manifold only.
Pressure from an external source can result in explosion of the fluid reservoir and possible personal injuries.
•
The pressure inside the pump can be extremely high. Ensure that all pressure connections have been established correctly.
•
For permanent installation, we recommend bolting/fixing the pump to a table or other fixed installation.
„„„„ „ RECOMMENDED TEST FLUIDS
•
P016 pumps must use hydraulic oil (Rando HDZ32 or similar).
•
P017 pumps must use distilled water.
•
P-018-CPF pumps may use either hydraulic oil or distilled water.
The fluid used must be compatible with the aluminum, brass, stainless steel, and Buna N (P016) or EPDM (P017, P-018-CPF) wetted parts.
Note: The pump itself has a fluid volume of approximately 24 ml. The volume of the auxillary fluid reservoir is 300 ml.
„„„„ „ RECOMMENDED MOUNTING
•
Fixed installation is recommended for regular, repetitive calibration and test routines. The P-Series pump can be permanently installed using the four m6
mounting holes in the pump’s base. (Remove the four rubber feet to access the mounting holes.)
Note: If a fixed installation is not desired, the pump can be held in place by hand.
