About This Manual

The UVC1000/UVC1010 is a rugged, compact
instrument manufactured by Condec, designed to
provide ease of operation, for the calibration of a wide
variety of pressure sensing and measuring devices.

Equipped to perform rapid on-site calibrations, these
instruments have proven to substantially reduce the
cost, system down-time and man-hours of labor
normally associated with these routine service
functions.

This instrument is an all-mechanical device that
provides up to 29 inches Hg vacuum in areas that are
off limits to vacuum pumps.The operator uses e xisting
shop air lines working with a built in vacuum
converter inside the unit. The unit has multiple ports,
including one for low pressure and one for vacuum.
Front panel gages tell the operator system pressure. A
pressure regulator will act as a pressure limiter so that
the operator can not over pressure a unit under test.
Adapter fittings are supplied for the customer to put
on their fill hose and test hose.

This manual has been written to give the user a simple
and clear explanation of how to operate, and
troubleshoot these instruments.

While a substantial effort has been

damage could result from the introduction of
hydraulic fluids into the internal tubing lines.

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

1.0 Introduction

The UVC1000/UVC1010 offers a combination of features, performance, versatility and reliability. Some of the
more outstanding features are listed below:

• Two models available: table top and 19" rackmount.

• Portable: These compact, self-contained systems are easily carried and operated by only one person. Total
weight is approximately 7 pounds.

• An internal input filter: Easily removed for inspection and cleaning.

• Simple Operation: All control regulator, gages, vacuum port and pressure port are accessible from the front
panel. The input port is located on the rear of unit. Accompan ying operator's manual pro vides clear , concise
instructions for system operation.

• Safe, Clean Operation: All pressure components are made of brass, aluminum or stainless steel and
proof-tested to at least 150% of maximum operating pressure.

Overpressure protection and clean line pressure must be provided by the customer. By virtue of this technique,
the UVC1000/UVC1010 and unit under test is fully protected from being inadvertently overpressurized.
