Your New TechChek 830-KP

Lighten your load…take the TechChek 830-KP to every
site. It’s like bringing a cartload of test equipment from the
shop to the control room or the field. The TechChek 830-KP
sources and reads DC like a milliamp or voltage calibrator,
simulates and measures T/Cs & RTDs like a temperature
calibrator, generates and counts frequency and Counts-Per­Minute like a frequency calibrator and displays pressure like
a precision test gauge. Troubleshooting? It checks continuity
with a beeper and measures AC line voltage like a
multimeter!

Calibrate Milliamp Inputs

Calibrate controllers, recorders and other devices in 4
to 20 or 0 to 20 mA loops. Source and read 0.00 to 24.00
mA, or Simulate a 2-Wire Transmitter. Use the optional AC
adaptor for continuous operation. Display to 0.01 mA , 0.1
% of 4 to 20 and 0.1 % DP Flow.

Calibrate 2-Wire Transmitters

Easily calibrate 2-Wire Pressure and Electronic
Transmitters by connecting the TechChek 830-KP to both
the input and output of the transmitter. The TechChek 830­KP will simultaneously indicate the input and output of the
transmitter on the graphical display.

Calibrate Pressure Systems

Read pressure with extreme accuracy using an external
QuikCal pressure module in a companion ModPak module
holder. Attach the module directly to the pressure
connection for the best accuracy or with optional tubing for
tight spots. Display to five digits within 0.025% of reading
in up to 20 engineering units including psi, pa, Kpa, Mpa,

GENERAL

TURN-ON

Each time you turn on the TechChek 830-KP it runs through a self
check then returns to the most recently selected settings.

SOURCE - The three QUIK-CHEK outputs will be the same as
previously stored. Each time a different function is selected, the
associated three QUIK-CHEK outputs will be recalled.

READ - The 830-KP is ready to measure the same signal as the
last time it was used and automatically updates the MAX & MIN
readings for recall at any time.

CONNECTIONS

TechChek 830-KP has protected banana jacks compatible with
standard and safety banana plugs.
Included with your TechChek are:a pair of safety test leads with
test probes, safety alligator clips, standard alligator clips and
spade lugs for attachment to a wide variety of instruments. An
additional test lead and spade lug are also included for 3-Wire RTD
connections.
A second pair of test leads with right angled safety banana plugs
and alligator clips for mA Read and Power Transmitter functions.
Thermocouple connections are made through a miniature
thermocouple socket.

Optional KIT-1 includes T/C wires for Type J, T, E & K with miniature
T/C plugs (not included).

CAUTION! To prevent accidently overloading the instrument
being tested, correctly set up the outputs before connecting
the TechChek 830-KP to any instruments to be calibrated.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

FIELD & BENCH USE

TechChek 830-KP comes with a carrying
case and a built-in tilt stand/hanger. The
830-KP is held securely in the case by
VELCRO® for use with the carrying case
open. The carrying case also has a snap­on belt loop which can be looped around a
pipe or rail.
The tilt stand is easily raised by pulling the
stand until it locks into place. The stand can
also be reversed for use as a hanger to
suspend the 830-KP.

CHANGING BATTERIES

Low battery is indicated by a battery symbol
on the display. Approximately four hours of
operation remain before the LCD blanks
and TechChek 830-KP shuts itself down.
Turn the 830-KP off, loosen the captive
screw securing the battery compartment
and lift off the cover from the bottom of the
case. The six “AA” batteries are easily
removed and replaced (alkaline supplied
and recommended). Replace the battery
compartment cover by inserting the tabs
and tightening the screw.

CHECK 1-5 VOLT INPUTS

WITHOUT DISCONNECTING WIRES

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

12

CHECK 1-5 VOLT INPUTS

WITHOUT DISCONNECTING WIRES

Most 1-5 Volt receivers in 4-20mA loops have a 250 Ohm

resistor across the input of the receiver. This resistor may be
mounted internally or externally. TechChek 830-KP is connected
directly across the input of the 1-5 Volt receiver without
disconnecting any field wiring. This saves a great deal of time
when a large number of voltage receivers, such as chart recorders
or computer systems, require calibration.

Make certain that changing the signal input will not disturb the

process or cause unexpected alarms when checking on-line
instruments. It is important to remember the 830-KP drives only
the device to which it is connected. It has no effect on other
devices in the 4 to 20 mA loop. TechChek 830-KP will clamp the
selected value in the mV and V Ranges to the maximum source
or sink current of >16 mA.

1) Press the MILLIAMP/V push-button until V or mV appear on
the display

2) Press the DISPLAY/SOURCE/READ push-button until SOURCE
and V or mV appear on the display

3) Press the TYPE/ENG UNITS push-button once to switch
between V and mV on the display

4) Connect the red SOURCE lead of the calibrator to the plus (+)
input of the device and the black SOURCE lead to the minus (-).
Any associated 250 Ohm resistor must not be disconnected.

Note on 4-Wire Connections:

The TechChek 830-KP may be used to calibrate instruments
requiring a 4-Wire RTD connection. This connection is valid
only when the lead wires included with the 830-KP are used to
connect the 830-KP directly to the instrument. Use of longer
wires can cause errors in the output setting.

For long 4-Wire cable runs use the 3-Wire connection and add
a stacking banana jack (not available from Transmation) to
connect a second wire to jack #1. Connect this extra wire to the
fourth wire field connection.

Cu) appears on the display.

3) Press the DISPLAY/SOURCE/READ push-button until SOURCE
and any RTD TYPE appear on the display

4) Connect using 3 wires as in the diagrams on the opposite
page. Use a 3 wire connection to read a 4 wire RTD (all four
wires must be the same gauge). Spade lugs are recommend­ed to minimize any contact resistance.

To Change the RTD type

ANY SOURCE FUNCTION AND
P-XMTR mA, P-XMTR %, P-XMTR DP%

Choose this function to simultaneously supply power to a 2-Wire
transmitter while supply the input signal to the transmitter and
display the 4-20 mA output of the transmitter.

1) Disconnect both the input and output wires from the 2-Wire

Transmitter to be calibrated

2) Choose a function of the 830-KP that matches the input of the

transmitter (T/C, RTD, Freq, etc.). Select the proper type,
range and temperature scale if applicable.

3) Press the DISPLAY/SOURCE/READ push-button until READ

or P-XMTR appears in the lower half of the display

4) Press READ/POWER TRANSMITTER to switch between

reading milliamps and supply voltage to power the transmitter

5) Connect the output of the 830-KP to the signal input of the trans-

mitter (using the 1, 2 & 4 connectors or the T/C connector on the
830-KP)

6) Connect the red POWER lead of the 830-KP (Connector 5) to

the plus (+) output of the tranmitter and the black POWER lead

(Connector 6) to the minus (-)
To change the output value, press the UP or DOWN key for each
digit. To ramp the output press and hold any UP or DOWN
pushbutton. This function operates in all three output positions (HI,
SET & LO). Press the HI & LO Quik-Cheks to recall stored outputs.

The TechChek 830-KP supplies a nominal 24 Volts DC at 24 mA
to the 2-Wire transmitter. The current output of the transmitter will
be accurately displayed by the 830-KP. Calibrate the Transmitter
in the usual manner and disconnect the 830-KP.

READ PRESSSURE

WARNING! - SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Sudden release of compressed or stored gas can cause personal
injury. Always vent the system before making pressure
connections or disconnections. Exercise standard physical
protection practices such as eye protection, gloves, protective
clothing, etc.

To prevent the potentially hazardous release into the atmosphere
of substances introduced into the pneumatic system by the user,
no relief valves are provided in the QuikCal 90 Pressure Module.
Consequently, if a module is overpressurized, the sensor will be
damaged.

FITTING INSTALLATION

All pneumatic connections to the QuikCal 90 Module are made via
1/8”-27 NPT threads in the pressure port. Adapter fittings may be
used for 1/4”-18, straight 10-32 threads or any other size fittings to
match the field connections.

To install a fitting in a module pressure port:

1) Apply Teflon tape or pipe dope to the fitting threads (Teflon tape
not recommended with stainless steel fittings)

2) Carefully install the fitting in the pressure port on top of the
module

3) Use a 5/8” wrench to support the pressure module port and a
second wrench to tighten the fitting

4) Check for leaks
