Introduction

The 719 30G and 100G Series Pressure Calibrators (the Calibrator) perform the following functions:
Calibrate P/I (pressure to current) transmitters
Calibrate I/P (current to pressure) devices
Identify the set, reset and deadband of of pressure
switches
Measure pressure via a 1/8-in. NPT pressure fitting
and an internal pressure sensor or via a Fluke 700 Series Pressure Module
Source pressure via electric pump
Measure, source, and simulate current up to 24 mA
Simultaneously displays pressure and current
Supply loop voltage
Calculate mA percentage in Percent Mode
Calculate mA error % in Percent Error Mode
Switch between pressure/vacuum control
The Calibrator features:
Precision air bleed for fine control
Fine vernier adjustment for the pump
A serviceable electric pump
Pressure limit settings
HART resistor mode
The Calibrator ships with:
holster
two installed 9 V alkaline batteries
TL75 test leads
AC70A alligator clips
hose kit

Users Manual
The Calibrator makes 5-digit pressure measurements in the units shown below:
Psi
inH2O at 4 °C
inH2O at 20 °C
kPa
cmH2O at 4 °C
cmH2O at 20 °C
bar
mbar
kg/cm2
inHg
mmHg
For pressure modules, full-scale readings for all pressure ranges can be made in:
Psi
kPa
inHg
To avoid display overflow, full scale readings are limited to 1000 psi in cmH 3000 psi in inH be measured for meaningful readings in bar and kg/cm
O, mbar, and mmHg units, and
2
O units. Pressures of at least 15 psi must

Safety Information

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. Symbols used in this manual and on the Calibrator are listed in Table 1.
XWWarning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:
Use the Calibrator only as specified in
this manual, otherwise the protection provided by the Calibrator may be impaired.
Never apply more than 30 V, including
transients, between the mA terminals, or between either of the mA terminals and earth ground.
The Calibrator is rated for CAT I
measurement only. Do not use the Calibrator to make measurements in a CAT II, CAT III, or CAT IV environments.
CAT I equipment is designed to protect against transient from high-voltage, low­energy sources, such as electronic circuits or a copy machine
Remove the test leads from the
Calibrator before opening the battery door.
Pressure Calibrator with Electric Pump
Introduction
Make sure the battery door is closed and
latched before operating the Calibrator.
Do not operate the Calibrator if it is
damaged.
Do not operate the Calibrator around
explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
When using probes, keep fingers behind
the finger guards on the probes.
Use only two 9 V batteries, properly
installed in the Calibrator case, to power the Calibrator.
Follow all equipment safety procedures.
Turn off circuit power before connecting
the Calibrator mA and COM terminals in the circuit. Place Calibrator in series with the circuit.
When servicing the Calibrator, use only
specified replacement parts.
Do not allow water inside the case.
To avoid false readings, which could
lead to possible electric shock or personal injury, replace the battery as soon as the battery indicator (B) appears.
To avoid a violent release of pressure in
a pressurized system, shut off the valve and slowly bleed off the pressure before attaching or detaching the internal pressure sensor or pressure module fitting to the pressure line.
To avoid over pressure damages, do not
apply pressure that exceeds the limits listed in the Pressure Specifications table in the Specifications section.
To avoid mechanically damaging the
Calibrator, do not apply torque between the pressure fitting and the Calibrator case. See Figure 1 for the proper use of tools.
To avoid misleading readings,
disconnect the pressure module connector at the Calibrator.
To avoid damage to the pressure
module, refer to the related Instruction Sheet.
To avoid damage to the pump, use with
dry air and non-corrosive gases only.
Check test leads for continuity before
using. Inspect Calibrator for cracks or damage, do not use the probes if they are damaged or show high resistance.
