AN EXTRA MEASURE OF ACCURACY
All W&T Portable Pneumatic Calibrators are subjected to rigo­rous and extensive testing. Each has to perform at bet

which are directly trace­able to the German National Bureau of Standards (PTB).
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
The Series 65-120 Portable Pneumatic Calibrator is a pressure-vacuum test stand wholly contained in a carrying case. The front panel accommodates the precision pressure gauge, all pressure connections, two air-regulator controls, and a selector valve. With the selector valve, three different test pressures can be applied individually to the gauge. A fourth selector setting vents the gauge to atmosphere.
The precision pressure gauge has a Ni-Span C, cap­sule-type pressure element which gives excellent temperature stability and speed of response. An almost frictionless mechanical linkage amplifies capsule movement and transmits it to the pointer. Although highly sensitive and accurate, the mecha­nism is built to withstand the handling normally as­sociated with on-site calibration of pneumatic instru­mentation.
A filter on the air supply keeps oil and moisture out. Two regulators apply known pressures to the devices under test. The connection block has
1
/8-inch female­pipe-threaded connections. Small gauges can be threaded directly into the block; or as with larger instruments, connected by flexible tubing.
The standard scale contains two sets of calibrations: –100 to 0 to 850 inches of water and –3.6 to 0 to
30.6 psi. Other ranges and units of calibration (from min.
0–4,5 psi
to max. 0–100 psi) are available.
The Series 65-120 Pneumatic Calibrator provides high-degree accuracy for on-site testing and calibration service. This versatile portable test stand combines precision measurement and durable construction in a compact unit that is capable of simulating, applying, holding, regulating and measuring both pressures and vacuum. The dial, all pressure connec­tions, and the controls are panel-mounted for easy access.

Clear, Accurate Readout
Sharply defined graduations, a 45-inch (1140 mm) scale length over two pointer revolutions, and a knife-edge pointer facilitate precise readouts. All scale calibrations are individually plotted and hand marked to produce a dial custom fitted to the pres­sure element and mechanism of that gauge.
Connections for different Pressure readouts
For gauge pressure:
test pressure is applied to the capsule through the appropriate P connection; the case is open to atmosphere through S.
For differential pressure:
high test pressure is applied to the capsule through the appro­priate P connection. Low test pressure is applied to the case through S.
For absolute pressure:
test pressure is applied to the capsule through the appropriate P connection and the case is continuously subjected to full vacuum through S.
For vacuum:
the capsule is open to atmosphere through connection P; the case is connected to test vacuum at S.
For positive and negative pressures:
test pressure is applied to the capsule through the appropriate P connection and the case is open to atmosphere through S.
Engineered for perfomance
The gauge housing is heavy cast aluminum with a tempered glass dial cover. A built-in pressure-relief valve has a dumping capacity which protects the case against overpressures to 10 times the maximum pressure rating. A separate pressure-relief valve protects the capsule mechanism. The gauge is mounted inside the carrying case on rubber-padded shock mounts. The carrying case is constructed of strong but lightweight molded ABS that flexes to absorb shock from impact.
Compact, built for on-site service
The W&T Portable Pneumatic Calibrator weights only 20 lb (9 kg) and is only slightly larger than a attache case. The easy portability, simple set-up, and the versatile capabilities of this unit extends its usefulness for service in the field. Its portability saves the time and expense of shop calibration.

The W&T Portable Calibrator eliminates the need for special arrangements or external controls. The carry­ing case has a compartment for adapters, tubing, and other accessories; the case cover is easily removed. Complete information on the use of the calibrator is given in an instruction book. A schematic flow dia­gram on the panel shows the calibrator’s connections at a glance.
USES OF THE W&T PORTABLE CALIBRATOR
Simplest use of the calibrator is to carry it to an on­stream gauge, indicator, or recorder. Calibration of such instruments can be quickly checked by making simple connections without taking the instrument out of service. Also, the calibrator can simulate the set and process-variable signals to a pneumatic control device and check its output. These three pressures can be read out and checked in any order and in rapid sequence. By evacuating the calibrator, abso­lute pressure measurements can be made.

Calibrator Uses
3
Calibration of a pressure transmitter
Using a common supply pressure for both the cali­brator and the transmitter, transmitter input is regulated to the desired value and held. Transmit­ter output is accurately indicated by the calibrator.
Calibration of a gauge, indicator or recorder
Test pressure is applied to the instrument and to the calibrator simultaneously. Instrument and cali­brator readings are compared for an accuracy check.
Calibration of a differential pressure transmitter
The transmitter’s supply and high-input pressures are regulated to the desired values and held. Transmitter output is indicated accurately by the calibrator.
Calibration of a typical stacked diaphragm pneumatic controller
Controller supply pressure is regulated to the de­sired value and held. Controller set and measured inputs and output A are regulated to the desired value and held. The calibrator then reads out con­troller output accurately. P3equals P2for any value of P2if the controller is in calibration.
Calibration of a ratio relay
The ratio relay’s input and reference pressures are regulated to the desired values and held. Relay output is indicated accurately by the calibrator.

Overpressure protection
A pressure relief valve protects the mechanism (capsule); pressure up to 90 psi will not damage the mechanism nor affect accuracy. A built-in relief valve and a flow restrictor protect the case from pressures up to 10 times the case rating of 35 psig. This valve is an emergency-protective device only.
