Preparation

The Hydraulic Comparison Test Pump User’s Manual covers the following instruments: the P5514, P5514-V, and the P5514-EP.
The Comparison Test Pump is used for checking pressure-measuring instruments against Master Test Gauges.
The terms ”Master Test Gauge” and “Gauge” in this document refer to any pressure-measuring instrument such as Transfer Standards, Digital Calibrators, and Transducers.
This system is only as accurate as the Master Test Gauge used. The Master Test Gauge must be regularly calibrated on a Primary Reference Standard (such as a Deadweight Tester) to ensure accuracy is maintained.
The comparison test pump should be mounted securely to a stable workbench or similar surface. Four mounting holes are provided in the pump stand for this purpose.

Operating Fluid Compatibility

The standard system is designed for use with a wide range of fluids; however, the O-ring seals are Nitrile; use of solvents, fuel oils, brake fluids or other, similar aggressive fluids can damage the seals. The table below details the two alternative versions of this instrument, which offer increased compatibility with other fluids.
Rotate reservoir dust cover through ½ turn and fill reservoir approximately 3/4 full with the appropriate fluid. Rotate dust cover back to cover reservoir.
To avoid damage to the instrument, the operator should check the quality of the operating fluid during use. If the fluid becomes discolored, cloudy or particles appear in the reservoir, the system should be drained and flushed with clean fluid.

W Caution

Safety Information

The following are general safety precautions that are not related to any specific procedures and do not appear elsewhere in this publication. These are recommended precautions that personnel must understand and apply during equipment operation and maintenance to ensure safety and health and protection of property.

Compressed Liquid

Use of compressed liquids can create an environment of propelled foreign matter. Pressure system safety precautions apply to all ranges of pressure. Care must be taken during testing to ensure that all hydraulic connections are properly and tightly made prior to applying pressure. Personnel must wear eye protection to prevent injury.
W Warning
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Personal Protective Equipment

Wear eye protection approved for the materials and tools being used.

Symbols Used in this Manual

In this manual, a Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose a hazard to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and actions that may damage the Hydraulic Comparison Test Pump.
2
Symbols used on the Hydraulic Comparison Test Pump and in this manual are explained in Table 2.

Connections

Fit the device under test (DUT) to the test port using the method described below:
Ensure that all devices are internally clean and free from contamination before connecting to the tester.
Particle contamination can damage the sensitive piston assemblies, valve seats, and screw pump.

W Caution
Hydraulic Comparison Test Pump
Connections
To avoid cross-contamination from other fluids and protect the system from particulates, we recommend the use of a Liquid-to-Liquid Separator (see Section 5, Ancillary Equipment).
W Warning
DO NOT use Teflon/PTFE tape on these connections as this will prevent correct sealing. The Gauge Adapter sealing system is designed for hand-tight sealing up to 20,000 psi / 1,400 bar-wrenches or similar tools are not required — over tightening can cause damage to threads or sealing faces.
Before connection, ensure that there is an O-ring fitted to the test port.
Check that the sealing face of the device to be fitted is clean and undamaged, as scratches or dents can form leak-paths.
Note
The thread on the test port, and the lower part of the gauge adapters is LEFT-HANDED. The following procedure details the correct method for mounting devices using these adapters.

Connect the Gauge

Refer to Figure 1 for steps 1 to 4.
1. Screw the appropriate gauge adapter fully on to the instrument to be tested.
2. Screw assembly down COUNTER-CLOCKWISE on to test port.
Hand-tight is sufficient; ensure that the bottom face contacts the O-ring on the test port.
3. To adjust the position to face forward, hold the gauge adapter and turn the instrument COUNTER-CLOCKWISE, so that it faces forward.
4. Hold the instrument steady COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until it pulls down onto the O-ring.

Connect the Test Port Insert

For devices with 1/8 BSP or NPT mounting threads, the diameter of the thread is very close to the effective sealing diameter of the O-ring fitted to the test port.
This can make it difficult to achieve a good seal. When mounting these devices, use the test port insert (stored in the spare seals container) as shown Figure 2.

Operation

Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the instrument (stated on the instrument label).
W Warning
1. Turn the screw press in to generate pres
2. Allow a few moments for the system to stabilize before taking any readings, especially after large changes in system pressure.
Large, sudden changes in pressure will cause the system temperature to rise or fall, which can cause instrument readings to change as the fluid in the system expands or contracts, thus increasing or decreasing the pressure.
3. Compare the reading of the gauge under test with that of the master
4. For the next higher calibration point, repeat from Priming, Step 1.
5. To measure reducing pressures, turn the screw press out (counter-clockwise).
6. Depressurize the system by turning the screw press FULLY OUT, then open the reservoir valve
W Caution
Never release the system pressure by using the reservoir valve alone, as sudden depressurization will “shock” the system, which may cause damage to sensitive instruments attached to it.

Maintenance and Servicing
4. The white, anti-extrusion ring (21) is a PTFE spiral, and can be removed by “unwinding” it from the rambler.
5. When removing the rambler seal (20), take care not to use any tool that may have a sharp edge that will scratch the surfaces of the rambler, otherwise it may leak when reassembled.
6. The replacement rambler seal can be eased over the front of the rambler, and into the groove.
7. Sim
ilarly, the new anti-extrusion ring can be “wound” into the groo
behind the rambler seal.
8. If the rambler has been separated from the lead screw, ensure that the ball (23) is correctly fitted before reassembly.
9. Ensure that the rambler assembly is correctly located on the end of the lead screw assembly. Carefully introduce the rambler into the open end of the barrel; making sure that it does not tilt when entering the barrel.
10. Push the lead screw assembly fully in to the barrel, ensuring that the key in the nut locates correctly in the slot in the barrel.
11. Re-tighten the barrel union nut.
If the lead screw assembly (24) shows signs of excessive wear, then it is very likely that the associated components have worn also; therefore, the screw press assembly is available as a spare part.
