The bench-top UPS3000 and the rack-mountable UPS3110 and UPS3210 pneumatic pressure standards are
rugged, compact instruments manufact ure d by COND EC. Th ey are designed to provide superior accuracy, range
of calibration and ease of operation when used to assist in the manufacture, test and/or calibration of a wide
variety of pressure sensing and measuring devices.
These instruments utilize an extremely repeatable sensor coupled to microprocessor-based electronic circuitry
and a selectable units display system. This provides easily readable and accurate digital representation of the
measured pressure. If required for portable use, the optional battery models, are able to provide up to six hours of
use.
The UPS3110 all electro-mechanical device has our precision Orion vernier and one test port. Some models
contain a front panel gage, to show the operator the input pressure, as well as, a pressure regulator that will act as
a pressure limiter so that the operator can not over pressure a unit under test. A test hose is supplied for the
customer. Standa rd fro nt pane l buttons and switches provide selection of the desired pressure range, push-button
zeroing and the unique internal self-check feature.
This manual has been written to give the user a simple and clear explanation of how to operate, calibrate and
maintain these instruments.
Before attempting to use either style, Pressure Standard, the following instructions
#AUTION
must be carefully read and understood by personnel utilizing the equipment. This is a
high-pressure system. While a substantial effort has been expended to make this
equipment safe, simple and fool-proof to operate, it is strongly recommended that only
personnel formally trained in the use of pneumatic pressure equipment be permitted to
operate it. Potentially dangerous conditions could be produced through negligent
handling or operation of the console due to the high pressure contained within the unit.
UPS3110 units are strictly for use with pneumatic pressures. Erroneous readings and
potential damage could result from the introduction of hydraulic fluids into the internal
tubing lines.

1.0Introduction
Utilizing microprocessor technology, the UPS3000, rack-mountable UPS3110 and UPS3210 instruments offer a
combination of features, performance, versatility and reliability not previously available in a single,
self-contained pressure calibration instrument. The following list notes the features and benefits of each unit:
•Three independent switch-selectable pressure ranges per instrument.
•Nine button-selectable units (PSI, kPa, Bar, mBar, kg/cm2, mmHg, inHg, cmH2O, inH2O) plus percent
of full scale may be displayed on instrument.
•Accuracy of each range equal to or better than ±0.05% Full Scale.
•Both “Gage” and “Absolute” pressure calibrations available via front panel switch selection.
•Automatic self-check: Computer-controlled internal circuitry provides automatic maintenance of both
zero and span calibration data to insure long-term stability and accuracy.
•Digital Display: Eliminates parallax, interpolation and operator judgement errors. Large, bright, red LED
digits provide excellent readability under all lighting conditions.
•UPS3110 only - Using a manually adjustable regulator, the maximum system input pressure is adjusted
to any desired value higher (typically 20 to 50%) than the full scale range of the device being tested. By
virtue of this technique, the unit under test is fully protected from being inadvertently over-pressurized.
•Fast Response: Pressure data refreshed and updated at the rate of 12 time s per second.
•Data Output: Serial Data, 20 mA loop, ASCII code format with start, stop and parity bits supplied as
standard practice. RS232 Simplex output available as an option.
•Calibration Integrity: Tamper-proof design. Once calibrated, numerous safeguards guarantee the
integrity of pressure readings obtained. Display prompting provides the operator with functional status
information during both operation and calibration.
•P ressure Media: UPS3000 and UPS3210, any gas or fluid compatible with 17-4 PH stainles s steel alloy.
UPS3110, only gas compatible with 17-4 PH stainless steel alloy.
•Simple Operation: All controls and indicators are accessible from the front panel. Accompanying
operator's manual provides clear, concise instructions for system operation
•S afe, Clean Operation: All pressure components are made of brass, copper, aluminum or stainless steel
and proof-tested to at least 150% of maximum operating pressure. In addition, the UPS3110 system
contains a high-pressure relief valve to protect both the operator and system components from harm in
the event of inadvertent over-pressurization.
The heart of this indicator/calibration system is a highly stable and repeatable pressure transducer. These sensors
produce an electrical output signal which is linearly proportional to the applied pressure. This transduction
technique has been employed by CONDEC for many years and has realized hundreds of thousands of hours of
reliable operation.
By combining these sensors with sophisticated microprocessor-based circuitry, an even higher degree of
operational accuracy and precision has been accomplished. For example, computer-generated correction curves
for both the non-linearity and the hysteresis of the sensors improve these characteristics by an order of magnitude
or more. In addition, a “self-calibration” feature insures long-term accuracy by utilizing the computer to generate
and control an internal “shunt calibration mode” of operation. The indicators full-scale reading is compared
against, and if necessary, corrected to the digitally-stored value for full scale obtained at the time of initial
pressure calibration.
The UPS3000 and UPS3210 indicators, as well as, the UPS3110 calibrator has capability for an internal,
rechargeable 12 volt lead acid battery, which provides a minimum of 6 hours of complete usage, when battery is
fully charged. An ON/OFF switch is provided to conserve energy when the instrument is not in use. It also has a
LO BATT indicator. After receiving and prior to operating new battery models, reinstall (+) cable, red wire, on
With all its sophistication however, a great deal of effort has been expended to make the instruments simple to
operate and easy to calibrate.
Two micro-metering valves and vernier are provided to control the UPS3110 pressure source while the digital
display indicates precisely the magnitude of the applied test pressure. Also, a pair of simple push-button switches
provide both “zeroing” of the pressure display and the selection of either the “Gage” or “Absolute” calibration
mode. In like manner, the “Range” selection is accomplished via a clearly marked rotary switch. Over-pressure
protection is provided on lower pressure UPS3110 models via a fully adjustable pressure regulator which is
manually set for each new device being tested.
With respect to calibration, the instruments have been designed and programmed to be very user friendly in that
they provide the operator with various prompting symbols and legends during each phase of the calibration
sequence. Also, to prevent unauthorized tampering or calibrations, numerous features have been incorporated
which greatly minimize this potential danger. Also, the electronic circuitry ha s been designed without any
potentiometers or adjustments which eliminates the possibility of unwanted changes. Finally, the computer has
been programmed with a series of internal self-diagnostic routines which continually monitor and check every bit
of data stored and processed by this system, and immediately either notes or shuts down operation in the event of
an out-of-tolerance reading or outright failures.
The following schematic provides an overview of the UPS3110’s function.

As normally supplied, the UPS3000, UPS3110 and UPS3210 will be fully calibrated and configured to the
requirements specified by the customer purchase order. However, there are several functions or operational
features that may be selected or altered by the operator during usage. These are controlled by the eight-position
DIP switch, S1, located on the CPU board as shown in Figure 2-7.
NOTE: To gain access to the CPU board see “Case Removal and Installation” on page 28.
The APC4000 interface enable is activated only for models that are purchased and used with the PCM1000-1
controller or part of an APC4001 controller system. When UPS3000 or UPS3210 is used in conjunction with a
controller, Peak Hold, Freeze Mode or MIN/MAX Mode options are not available.
NOTE: UPS3110 is not used with a controller.
Approximately 1994 multi conversion software was added to UPS3000 models, therefore UPS3000 and PCM1000 units
made prior to this will not work with the ones manufactured after that date. Consult factory for information on upgrading
units.

NOTE: * Absolute or Gage modes of operation are factory set, depending upon the style of transducer supplied and the
type of internal memory configuration utilized.
When the Absolute/Gage switching is not utilized; the front panel ABS/GAGE push-button switch will be
programmed to inactive and covered with a blank overlay.
When the PEAK HOLD Option or MAX/MIN option is supplied switching from Absolute to Gauge mode via
the front panel is possible and the Freeze Mode option, if supplied, is operable.
NOTE: When the PEAK HOLD or MAX/MIN option is supplied, the CONV button is no longer active or present on front

Digital Averaging is a technique whereby numerous update cycles are averaged together before the numerical
display data is changed. In essence, this feature acts as a variable rate electronic filter to provide a more stable
pressure indication reading.The “
AUTO” mode of this filter allows the display to update rapidly (12/sec.) when
the input pressure is being quickly changed and yet provides extremely stable display operation (3/sec.) when the
desired pressure input value has been obtained.

Table 2-5. AZM Enable Switch Setting
The Automatic Zero Maintenance (AZM) feature is used to “hold” the indicator reading to a “zero” value as long
as the actual pressure input is maintained at zero. If the input pressure changes by more than one half a least
significant display digit between two consecutive display update cycles, the “hold” feature is automatically
disabled and the exact magnitude of pressure being exerted will be displayed. In some applications, it may be
better to operate the instrument without the AZM circuit enabled. If so, pressing the
ZERO push-button switch,
with zero pressure applied to the instrument, will guarantee that each new pressure cycle begins at zero.

The Automatic Span Maintenance (ASM) circuit operates in conjunction with the front panel CAL push-button to
provide a Self-Check feature that insures long-term accuracy by utilizing the computer to generate and control an
internal “shunt calibration mode” of operation wherein the indicator reading obtained is compared against, and if
necessary, corrected to the digitally-stored value for the same shunt calibration reading obtained at the time of
initial pressure calibration.

The simple step-by-step calibration sequence provided on the following pages will permit a qualified technician
to calibrate an entire UPS3000, UPS3110 or UPS3210 instrument in a matter of 45 minutes.
However, it must be strongly emphasized that when performing these tests, the computer within the instrument is
actually being re-programmed and as such, it is imperative that the pressure standard being used be in
satisfactory operating condition and that the technician fully understands its operating characteristics and
methods of usage. In addition, the

Material Authorization Form”).
3.1Pneumatic Calibration Set-Up
Figure 3-1 defines a typical gage or absolute/gage calibration set-up using a floating piston type dead weight
tester. While doing an ABSOLUTE Only Unit calibration, a vacuum pump with an indicator capable of reading
PSIA will be required where the dead weight tester/pressure source is shown in
below local barometric pressure.
NOTE: Any type of precision pressure or vacuum standard is acceptable as long as its basic accuracy is ±0.025% of
point or better.
To permit proper calibration at least an “ON/OFF” and a “VENT” valve, connected as shown in Figure 3-1 must
be provided.
UPS3000/UPS3110/UPS3210 itself must be properly warmed up

There is relatively little maintenance that has to be done to the port fitting. Every 2 months, a little coating of
Krytox grease should be applied to the inner seal. The pressure cap (PN 55434) should be plugged in whenever
the unit is not in use.
NOTE: For simplest method, apply fluorinated Krytox grease to the outside surface between sealing lip and end of
mating quick-disconnect fitting. Vent unit line pressure to atmosphere. Plug quick-connect fitting into applicable
test port. Rotate fitting clockwise and counter-clockwise to transfer fluorinated krytox grease to O-ring seal.
If there is leakage out of the port when the pressure cap is in place, replace the port fitting.

7.0Options, Replacement Kits
There are numerous replacement part numbers mentioned throughout manual that can be ordered.
7.1Freeze Mode Option - PN 57778
NOTE: This option may not be used with APC 4000 or APC4001 interface option.
See “Freeze Mode Option Wiring” on page 11 for wiring information.
This mode, often used for testing pressure switches, is an edge triggered input signal that will “freeze” the last
display update for approximately five seconds, a s soon as, either open ing or closin g of a sw itch con tact betwee n
an active input and RETURN. However, while the display is in the freeze condition it w ill not respond to another
contact transition.
Specifications:
•T he Freeze input will “freeze” the display for approximately five seconds on the rise and fall time of the
input (edge not level triggered) and is “non-retriggerable”.
•Input pulse > 100 ms required to guarantee detection.
•The freeze will “freeze” the 6 digit numeric and LED bar displays in whatever mode it is in (i.e. Normal,
Max or Min mode).
•During the “freeze” the Front Panel Keys are inactive.
•I nputs are a +5 VDC logic level. Sinking current approximately 0.5 mA.
7.2Peak Hold Option
UPS3000[][]A, UPS3000[][]B, UPS3210[][]A, UPS3110[][]A, UPS3110[][]B, UPS3210[][]B use PN 57775
UPS3000[][]C, UPS3210[][]C, UPS3210[][]C use PN 57798
This option may not be used with APC 4000 or APC4001 interface option or MIN/MAX Option.
When model is Absolute or Gage front panel switch selectable, “CONV” button is replaced and therefore, the required
conversion must be set through reconfiguration. See
page 12 for applicable method to change to required conversion.
This option retains the last highest pressure reading and stores it in memory.
It can then be recalled upon demand at any time provided:
1. The unit has not been powered down (power removed).
2. The reset button has not been pushed.
3. The range select switch has not been changed to another range.
“Engineering Conversion with PEAK HOLD or MAX/MIN Option” on
To use this option, select the appropriate pressure range using the Range Select switch. While the unit is at 0 psi,
push the
“Peak” pressure during this particular test.The
the
RESET button. Now run the pressure test. After the pressure test, push the RECALL button to display the
RECALL button may be pushed as many times as needed. Pus hing
RESET button will clear the register and another pressure test may begin. Each time the RESET or RECALL
button is pushed a flashing Dash will appear in the upper left corner of the digital display.
NOTE: For configuration setup See “Peak Hold or MAX/MIN Option Enable” on page 9.
7.3Min and Max Mode Option
UPS3000[][]A, UPS3000[][]B, UPS3210[][]A, UPS3110[][]A, UPS3110[][]B, UPS3210[][]B use PN 57790
UPS3000[][]C, UPS3210[][]C, UPS3210[][]C use PN 57796
This option may not be used with APC 4000 or APC4001 interface option or Peak Hold Option.
When model is Absolute or Gage switch selectable, CONV button is replaced and therefore, the required conversion
must be set through reconfiguration. See
for applicable method to change to required conversion.
The Min and Max mode is designed to capture and store the highest and the lowest pressure readings. These
values may be recalled at anytime in the normal operating mode. To operate this option, select the pressure range
which best fits your needs. Apply pressure to the unit until it is at a point somewhere between the estimated
minimum and maximum points. Press the
portion of the display and will continue to appear until button is released. The option has now been initialized.
After initialization, the unit will immediately start to record the minimum and maximum readings. To access
these readings, momentarily press the
display . This reading is the “MAXIMUM” reading. Momentarily press the
in the lower left-hand portion of the display. This reading is the “MINIMUM” reading. Momentarily press the
RECALL button again and the unit will return to the normal operating mode. This review may be repeated as
many times as necessary without the loss of the acquired data.
NOTE: Changing ranges may result in a loss of data.
NOTE: For configuration setup See “Peak Hold or MAX/MIN Option Enable” on page 9.

7.4Analog Output Option (0 VDC to +10 VDC)
NOTE: Recommended factory installed option. Also consult factory for battery models with this option.
UPS3000A[][], UPS3000C[][], UPS3210A[][], UPS3110C[][], UPS3110A[][], UPS3210C[][] used in
conjunction with +4 to +20 mA DC option use PN
UPS3000A[][], UPS3000C[][], UPS3210A[][], UPS3110C[][], UPS3110A[][], UPS3210C[][] used in
conjunction with +4 to +20 mA DC option and RS232 Simplex option use PN
The output voltage at 0 psi is 0 VDC and the output voltage at 100% full scale of any range is + 10 VDC. Output
impedance must be greater than 10,000 Ohms. Connections are made via the round military connector for the
“Return” (Pin B) and for the “Output Voltage” (Pin C).
Digital circuitry is not used in the generation of the output voltage. Rather, the output voltage is derived directly
from the signal conditioner of the transducer. Due to the nature of three pressure ranges and the one pressure
transducer, the signal conditioner is set up with three different gains.
On “Gage Only” or “Absolute Only” units, as pressure ranges are selected, there ma y be slight adjustments
necessary to maintain 0 VDC at 0 psi and + 10 VDC at 100% full scale input pressure. On the “Absolute/Gage
Switch Selectable” units, the adjustments can be more rigorous.
It is always best to set the “zero” control (R3) first and the “Span” control (R4) last. These controls may be found
on the top portion of the circuit board mounted at the rear of the chassis. Select the range which is most
appropriate for the measurement application. While the unit is at 0 psi, adjust R3 until the output voltage is 0
VDC. Now apply full-scale pressure for that range and adjust R4 until the output voltage is + 10 VDC.

The output current at 0 psi is +4 ma DC and the output current at 100% Full Scale of any range is +20 ma DC.
Output impedance must be less than 500 ohms. Connections are made via the round military connector for the
“Output Current” (Pin A) and for the “Return” (Pin B).
Digital circuitry is not used in the generation of the output current. Rather, the output current is derived directly
from the signal conditioner of the transducer. Due to the nature of three pressure ranges and the one pressure
transducer, the signal conditioner is set up with three different gains.
On “Gage Only” or “Absolute Only” units, as pressure ranges are selected, there ma y be slight adjustments
necessary to maintain +4 ma DC at 0 psi and +20 ma DC at 100% Full Scale input pressure. On the “Absolute/
Gage Switch Selectable” units, the adjustments can be more rigorous.
It is always best to set the “Zero” control (R1) first and the “Span” control (R2) last. These controls may be found
on the top portion of the circuit board mounted at the rear of the chassis. Select the range which is most
appropriate for the measurement application. While the indicator is at 0 psi, adjust R1 until the output current is
+4 ma DC. Now apply full scale pressure for that range and adjust R2 until the output current is + 20mADC.

Their are two modes of operation, Continuous or Demand.
Continuous Mode: Model is continuously sending data.
Demand Mode: Must be done from the front panel of the UPS3000 using a button. The button is the hidden one
between the CONV and CAL button’s This is not a two-way mode and cannot be done externally by PC.
NOTE: For Software configuration See “Serial Output Software Configuration” on page 16.
The serial output is accessed at J2, a round 5-pin male connector located at the rear of the unit. Pin designations:
Pin D - Serial Output Data (Xmit), Pin E - Return (Gnd).
7.7Replacement Kits
There are numerous replacement part numbers mentioned throughout manual that can be ordered.
•UPS3000 Panel Mount Kit.................................... ..... ..................................PN 19297
Can be mounted through panels of any thickness up to 1-1/4 inches. Panel cut-out size and overall unit
dimensions are as shown below.
NOTE: Used with model’s UPS3000 & UPS3210 only. See “APC4000/APC4001 Interface Option Enable” on page 9 for
configuration switch settings.
Approximately 1994 multi conversion software was added to UPS3000 models, therefore UPS3000 and PCM1000 units
made prior to this will not work with the ones manufactured after that date.
The APC4000 interface is an option available on UPS3000 units that are purchased in conjunction with
CONDEC PCM1000-1, PN 54652, pressure controllers. The output is accessed from the rear of the unit at
connector J3, a 15-pin D-sub female connector which supplies a 20 mA loop and communication to the
controller input. Cable connects to J2 on PCM1000-1. See APC4000/APC4001 manual, PN 63254, for further
information.

UPS3000/UPS3110/UPS3210 Warranty and Return Policy
If possible, please save original packing material which is specifically designed for the unit. Should it be
necessary to ship the unit back to the factory, a suitable shipping container must be used along with sufficient
packing material. If at any time, the instrument must be returned for repair, recalibration or modification, please
be sure that a description of the work to be performed is included. Do not put a shipping label on the unit as a
shipping container. Some units have been severely damaged this way. This is a delicate, precision instrument.
Any damage incurred because of poor packaging procedures will ultimately result in added service charges and
longer turn-around times.
Vent all pressure lines to the atmosphere before shipping.
