Process technicians, plant maintenance technicians and instrument technicians who do pressure calibration work often use manual pumps to pressurize transmitters and gauges. That requires the use of two hands: one to pump and one to hold the pressure calibrator.
The lightweight Fluke 719 Electric Pressure Calibrators, however, feature a built-in electric pressure pump that makes it possible to quickly calibrate and test pressure devices with one hand. Two models are available: the 719 30G, with a pressure range of 12 psi to 30 psi, and the 719 100G, with a range of 12 psi to 100.
The battery-powered pump can be programmed to set target pressures or limit pressure to eliminate over-pressurization. It is designed to perform 5,000 pump cycles between rebuilds. A cleanout port facilitates service and minimizes pump failures caused by accidental exposure to contaminating fluids.
