Fluke 713 Instruction Sheet

713

Pressure Calibrator

Instruction Sheet

Introduction

Fluke Model 713 30G and 713 100G Pressure Calibrators

(hereafter called “calibrator”) calibrate P/I (pressure to current)
transmitters, or measure pressure or current. The calibrator
simultaneously displays pressure and current measurements.
Full scale pressure input is as follows:

• Model 713 30G: 30 psi (206.85 kPa, 2.0685 bar)

®

• Model 713 100G: 100 psi (689.5 kPa, 6.895 bar)
The calibrator measures and displays current up to 24 mA, and

the pressure applied to the 1/8-inch NPT pressure fitting. The
calibrator measures pressure in the units shown in the next table.

Your calibrator is supplied with a Flex-Stand holster, an
installed 9 V alkaline battery, one set of TL75 test leads, one set
of AC70A alligator clips, and this instruction sheet.

If the calibrator is damaged or something is missing, contact the
place of purchase immediately. Contact your Fluke distributor for
information about accessories. See “How to Contact Fluke.” To
order replacement parts or spares, see “Replacement Parts.”

Safety Information

Use the calibrator only as specified in this instruction sheet,
otherwise the protection provided by the calibrator may be
impaired.

A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s)
to the user; a Caution identifies conditions and actions that may
damage the calibrator or the equipment under test.

W Warning

To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:

• Never apply more than 30 V between the mA

terminals, or between either of the mA terminals
and earth ground.

• Remove the test leads from the calibrator

before you open the battery door.

• Make sure the battery door is closed and

latched before you operate the calibrator.

• Do not operate the calibrator if it is damaged.

• Do not operate the calibrator around explosive

gas, vapor, or dust.

• To avoid a violent release of pressure in a

pressurized system, shut off the valve and
slowly bleed off the pressure before you attach
or detach the calibrator pressure fitting to the
pressure line.

• When servicing the calibrator, use only

specified replacement parts

Caution

To avoid overpressure damage, do not apply
pressure that exceeds the following:

• Model 713 30G: 3X top of range (90 psi, 620 kPa,

6.2 bar)

• Model 713 100G: 2X top of range (200 psi, 1380

kPa, 13.8 bar)

To avoid corrosion in the pressure sensor, use the
calibrator only with media compatible with glass,
ceramic, silicon, RTV, type 316 stainless steel, and
nickel.

To avoid mechanically damaging the calibrator, do
not apply torque between the pressure fitting and
the calibrator case. See the figure for the proper
use of tools.

Getting Acquainted with the Calibrator

Press the green O pushbutton to turn the calibrator on and off.
The calibrator displays pressure and current measurements
simultaneously. See the figure below.

The upper part of the display shows the gage pressure applied to
the pressure fitting. Press

to select a different pressure unit.

U

When you cycle the power off and on, th e calibrator retains the
pressure unit you last used.

The lower part of the display shows the current (up to 24 mA)
applied to the current (mA) inputs. The current inputs are fused
with a 0.125 A, 250 V fast fuse (Littelfuse type 2AG).

Calibrating a P/I Transmitter

To calibrate a P/I (pressure to current) transmitter, you apply a

pressure to the transmitter and measure the transmitter’s current
loop output. Connect the calibrator to the transmitter as shown in
the figure.

Maintenance

For maintenance procedures not described in this instruction
sheet, or if the calibrator needs repair, contact a Fluke Service
Center.

In Case of Difficulty

• Check the battery, test leads, and pressure tubing. Replace
as necessary.

• Review this instruction sheet to make sure you are using the
calibrator correctly.

If the calibrator needs repair, and the calibrator is under
warranty, see the warranty statement for terms. If the warranty
has lapsed, the calibrator will be repaired and returned for a fixed
fee.

Cleaning

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and detergent; do
not use abrasives or solvents.

Calibration

Calibrate your calibrator once a year to ensure that it performs
according to its specifications. A calibration manual is available
(PN 686540). Call 1-800-526-4731 from the USA and Canada. In
other countries, contact a Fluke Service Center.

Replacing the Battery

When the Bsymbol appears on the display, replace the battery
with a 9 V alkaline battery.

Replacing the Fuse

! Warning

To avoid personal injury or damage to the
calibrator, use only a 0.125A 250V fast fuse,
Littelfuse

Fuse F1 is probably blown if the mA measurement display
reading does not respond to current applied to the current (mA)
inputs.

Replace the fuse as follows:

1. Remove the test leads and turn the calibrator off.

2. Remove the battery door.

3. Remove the three Phillips-head screws from the case
bottom and turn the case over.

4. Gently lift the top cover from the end nearest the current

(mA) inputs until it unsnaps from the bottom cover.

5. Replace the fuse with a 0.125 A 250 V fast fuse, Littelfuse
type 2AG.

6. Carefully fit the case top and circuit board assembly
together, making sure that the O-ring is properly seated
between the pressure sensor and the pressure fitting on the
case top. Fit the case bottom onto the case top, engaging
the two snaps near the display end of the case. Reinstall the
three screws.

7. Replace the battery door.
