2PIN8000/PIN8010 Operation and Maintenance Manual
2.0Introduction
Note
The PIN8000/PIN8010 pressure intensifier is an electro-mechanical device that can be used in conjunction with
a NIST traceable calibration standard to allow calibrations up to 10,000 PSIG. Each PIN8000/PIN8010 utilizes
Condec’s patented ORION 3A type micro-metering valves and vernier for pressure adjustment and venting. The
unit has two output (test) ports, one input port and three front panel gauges. This allows the operator to monitor
accumulator pressure, regulated input pressure, and intensified output pressure. Two output (test) ports allow one
to be connected to a NIST traceable calibration standard and the other to the device under test (DUT).
The Condec REG 1000 pressure regulator acts as a pressure limiter so that
pressure to 1/10 of the target value. A fill hose, output hose, and output fitting (located within the top cover) are
supplied. A front panel switch provides selection of the desired pump control mode, momentary (jog) or
continuous. For field use, the PIN8000 has an optional 83.3 cubic foot, 2,216 PSI cylinder is available to provide
many hours of use.

rotating counter-clockwise until it stops.
2. Plug in the power cord (1).
3. Connect the male end of the test (output) hose to output port 1 or port 2 (9).
4. Connect the swivel fitting end (7/16-20) of the test
(output) hose to the input of the device to be
pressurized using adapters if required. Properly tighten all connections.
5. Locate the male end of the supplied output port fitting P
N 55542 found within the top cover. Connect
with the output port (9).
6. Connect the other end of the output port fitting, male 7/16-20 37 degree (AN-4) JIC thread, to Condec
3030, Conde
c DPDG, or the customer-supplied pressure electronic calibration standard. If necessary, use
adapters or a hose. Use a cheat seal pad PN 54854 between the output port fitting (PN 55542) and the
hose/adapter. Properly tighten all connections.
7. If using the
optional external cylinder PN 59533, connect the male end of the input hose (3) to the
female CGA-580 brass cylinder (5) valve fitting.

2. Using the Condec REG 1000 (10), adjust the maximum intensifier
regulated pressure gauge (6), to 1/10 of the target value. The unit utilizes an internal intensifier with a
10:1 ratio. For example, setting regulated pressure to 300 PSI would generate an output pressure of 3,000
PSI. This protects the device from being accidentally over-pressurized.
3. To generate pressure, enable the power switch (2)

4. To apply pressure, the vent valve (12) must be closed by rotating the knob clockwise. Slowly open the
pressure valve (11) counter-clockwise, while monitoring the electronic calibration standard display
previously attached to one of the output ports (9), until reaching near the target value. The analog output
pressure gauge (8) will also give a reading; however, it will be less accurate.
5. Use either the pressure (11) or vent valve (8) to obtain a pres

should be slowly rotated clockwise to its closed position.
6. To obtain exact pressure readings, slowly rotate the verni

(clockwise to increase pressure) as indicated by the electronic calibration standard display.
Use the intensifier power switch (2) if the accumulator pressure gauge (7) reading falls below the required
target pressure value.

4.2Maintenance & Service Procedures
The repair procedures cover the major components and sub-assemblies which are critical to the proper
functioning of the calibrators and that need periodic maintenance over the life of the unit.
Only those persons who are formally trained as skilled technicians should attempt to repair these
units. All safety precautions should be observed due to
components. The unit must always be unplugged from the power source and properly vented.
