Switch Test
To perform a switch test, do the following:
This example uses a normally closed switch. The procedure is the same for
an open switch but the display reads OPEN instead of CLOSE.
1. Connect the Calibrator mA and COM terminals to the switch using the
pressure switch terminals and connect an external pump between the
Calibrator and the pressure switch using a tee fitting. The polarity of the
terminals does not matter.
2. Make sure the vent on the pump is open and zero the Calibrator if necessary.
Close the vent after zeroing the Calibrator.
3. Press S to enter pressure switch test mode. The Calibrator will display
CLOSE instead of a mA measurement.
4. Apply pressure with the pump slowly until the switch opens.
In the switch test mode, the display update rate is increased to help capture
changing pressure inputs. Even with the enhanced sample rate, pressuring
the device under test should be done slowly to ensure accurate readings.
Note

1. Press and hold Z.
2. Press
a
Z (
) to increase or Y ( h)to decrease the Calibrator reading
to equal the applied pressure.
3. Release Z to exit the zeroing procedure.
For all but the 700PA3 module, the known pressure can be barometric, if it is
accurately known. An accurate pressure standard can also apply a pressure within
range for any absolute pressure module. To convert measurement units:
• 1 bar = 750 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.0013332 bar)
• 1 psi = 2.036 inHg (1 inHg = 0.49115 psi).
Sourcing Loop Voltage
To use the Calibrator to supply loop power (24 V dc) to a current transmitter that
is disconnected from the system:
1. With power off, hold down Uwhile pressing OON.
The LOOPPOWER icon appears on the display.
2. With the transmitter disconnected from normal loop power, connect the
Calibrator in series with the instrument current loop as shown in Figure 3.
In addition to mA, the current can be displayed in two alternative modes:
•Percent Mode- The current is displayed as a percentage based on a 4-20 mA
scale.
•Percent Error Mode- Transmitter current output error is displayed. Error is
calculated based on a configurable zero and span pressure and a 4-20 mA
scale.
3. Measure loop current in the mA measurement display.
4. Press O OFF to deactivate the 24 V dc supply when you are done sourcing
loop voltage.
