3. Product description
3.1 Proper use
The Pneumatic High-Speed Controller model CPC3000 is a bench top or rack mounted Digital
Pressure Calibrator/Controller used for test and calibration of mechanical pressure gauges,
pressure switches, sensors, transducers, transmitters and any pressure related devices where
time to set point is the most critical requirement.
Only dry clean air or nitrogen should be used as the pressure medium.
Shop air should be avoided and corrosive, oxidizing, condensing, explosive
gasses should be strictly avoided.
Warning
The maximum permissible supply pressure at the SUPPLY port should be
10 % over full scale value of the sensor installed.
Very fast pressure changes can damage the sensor, due to mechanical
stress on the sensor; especially if the fast pressure change leads to an
internal pressure which is higher then the full scale of the internal sensor
(even if it is only for a fraction of a second). In some cases, the internal
relief valves cannot react quickly enough to protect the sensor.
Notice
Warning
The Internal pressure sensors have a calibration certificate (see enclosure:
calibration certificate) for the entire measuring chain.
The system is not suitable for use in areas with an explosion hazard.
If the CPC3000 is not used according to this manual, safe operation of the
system is not guaranteed.
The user of the system and not the manufacturer is responsible for all
personal and material damage resulting from improper use!

3.5.1 Keys, Tabs, Check Boxes, Labels/Graphics
Keys: There are two types of keys: those that act as a switch to change a condition and
those that open a data entry screen when pressed. Keys have borders with a three dimensional, shadowed effect (examples: , ). Throughout this
manual keys are represented with the displayed characters enclosed in brackets (Example
[MEASURE] ) or a description and the actual graphic icon (Example [SETUP] ). Pressing a key will have one of the following results: 1) instant, single step response, 2) continuously repeating steps while the key is held down, 3) the key will change colors indicating
that the associated function is active or 4) a data entry dialog box will open. Operators will
quickly become accustomed to the particular characteristics of the frequently used keys.
Tabs: Tabs are analogous to tabs in a notebook that allow switching quickly between relat-
ed screens. Tabs are keys that allow the operator to switch between a group of screens that
have a similar purpose, for example the tabs allow the operator to quickly
switch between three screens used to enter the setpoint.
Check Boxes: Check Boxes allow for the inclusion or exclusion of specific elements or
conditions.
Labels and Graphics: Labels and Graphics are text, or graphic that display information,
but do not respond to being touched (examples: ). They indicate
choices that have been made in the SETUP menus or indicate existing conditions as
pressure is controlled or measured.

3.6 Front panel variations and navigation
Bar Graph: The bar graph shows the relative indication of the range of the internal sensor, the
user defined limits on the internal sensor, the unused portion of the internal pressure sensor
range, the setpoint and the magnitude of the actual controlled pressure. The user defined
control limits can be selected in the MAIN -> [SETUP] -> CONTROL SCREEN and can be
set to correspond to the range of the device under test. It is important to note that when
the STEP key pad is active in percent mode each step is a percent of the user defined
limit not the full scale of the internal sensor. This is useful when calibrating or testing
various range devices. "Figure - Bar Graph" shows the bar graph when the CPC3000 is in

5.4 Installation of the system
The installation site must meet the following conditions:
Operating Temperature: 10 to 50 °C
Humidity: 0 to 95 % relative humidity non-condensation
Flat, horizontal location; secure fixed working surface (desk top model) or installation in a
19" rack mount.
At the back of the instrument sufficient air circulation must be provided for to avoid an
accumulation of the heat conducted to the outside via the fan.
During operation, pressure escapes through the VENT port in the back of the instrument.
Personnel should not have access to the rear VENT and EXHAUST port during operation.
Avoid the following influences:
Direct sunlight or proximity to hot objects
Unstable installation position
Mechanical vibration
Proximity to sources of strong electromagnetic fields, such as high tension appliances,
mobile telephones or mains
Soot, steam, dust and corrosive gases
Environment with explosion hazard, inflammable atmospheres
Pressure supply requirements:
Stable supply pressure 10 % higher than the full scale of the internal transducer
Permissible media: dry, clean air or nitrogen
Vacuum: min. 50 litres/min (if required)
An angle of inclination of the system of more than 3 degrees can cause a deviation in the measured pressure and should be avoided. Zeroing the unit at the
angle of inclination will nullify this deviation.
Notice
Applying supply pressure higher than the recommended pressure can
cause permanent damage to the control channel!

5.7 Function of pressure connections
MEASURE/CONTROL port
Below the label "MEASURE/CONTROL" is a pressure connection. In MEASURE mode
this connection connects the pressure applied to the internal sensor where the pressure
is measured (within the range of the internal sensor). In CONTROL mode this connection
supplies an output pressure controlled by the internal regulator at the commanded setpoint.
SUPPLY port
Below the label "SUPPLY" is a pressure connection. This connection should be supplied
with a pressure that is approximately equal to 110 % of the full scale pressure of the internal sensor. In other words, 10 % above the full scale pressure of the internal sensor
“SUPPLY Pressure” in the specifications chapter for supply pressure and pressure media
requirements.)
EXHAUST/VACUUM port
Below the label "EXHAUST/VACUUM" is a pressure connection.
If a sub-atmospheric control pressure is required a vacuum pump must be connected to
this port. Otherwise, this port may be left open to atmosphere.
(see

test and will exhaust through the EXHAUST/VACUUM port in excess of
the capacity of the internal relief valve, possibly causing damage to the
vacuum pump.
VENT outlet
Below the label "VENT" is the pressure outlet. In VENT mode the pressure within the system
is released through this outlet.
HIGH SOUND LEVELS! Pressures from 40 bar and up can generate sound
levels above 100 db for brief periods when they are exhausted directly to
atmosphere. If no muffling devices are attached to the EXHAUST/VACUUM
Warning
and VENT port, then ear protection is advised for personnel in the vicinity
of the instruments that will be operated under such conditions.
REFERENCE port
On gauge units this port is connected to the reference side of the transducer, and on
absolute units it is internally capped. This port is normally left open to atmosphere.
The controller must be protected from over pressure.
Warning
11498171.01 08/2009 GB
WIKA Operating Instruction Pneumatic High-Speed Pressure Controller ∙ Version 1.121
Pipes, couplings and other components used for connecting the supply
exhaust and the MEASURE/CONTROL port must be suitable for the application and rated for the applied pressures.
The user must ensure that the pressure media are clean and dry. If necessary, the internal sensors and mechanisms must be protected by using a
liquid trap or coalescing filter.

sure that the earth lead is properly connected.
The mains input socket is to be connected according to the regulations with the countryspecific connection cable supplied to a power supply that lies within the required specifica-
tion. To power-on the instrument switch the power switch ON (located on the rear of the
instrument; also see chapter "6. Starting operation").
5.8.2 Connecting the Communications interfaces
USB 2.0 FS Interface
The USB 2.0 FS connection on the rear panel of the CPC3000 is a USB-B Type connector.
The manufacturer of the USB interface board provides the drivers and product information on
a CD that is included with the CPC3000.
IEEE-488 Interface (GPIB)
The connection of the IEEE-488 interface is designed as a 24 pole IEEE-488-socket.
The manufacturer of the host IEEE-488 interface board provides software to allow communication between the board and various programming languages.
An interactive program for debugging is usually provided as well. Refer to the board manufacturer’s documentation for more information.
ETHERNET Interface
The ethernet communication port allows the CPC3000 to communicate with computers using
10/100 Based-T specifications.

Please consult your Computer Resources Department prior to connecting
this instrument to your network to verify there are no conflicts with existing
IP addresses.
Warning
Ethernet communications are transmitted over a standard RJ-45 cable.
Prior to first time use of ethernet communication, the four parameters "IP", "Netmask",
"Gateway" and "Port" must be SETUP. These are configured in the communications SETUP
screen.
6. Starting operation
Before the system is switched on, verify that the system was installed
according to the instructions of the previous chapter and that all connections installed are fitted according to the current regulations.
Warning
Operators must ensure that all specifications that apply to supply voltage,
operating temperature, humidity, pressure media and pressure ranges are
observed.
Condensation can occur inside the system when the temperature changes
abruptly. Give the system sufficient time for acclimatisation in such cases.
Before pressurizing, the operator must ensure that the system and the
device under test will not be over pressurized. When working with or on
the instrument, safety glasses have to be worn.
In the rooms in which the CPC3000 is operated sufficient air ventilation has
to be ensured.
When the above points have been met you can switch on the system, (the switch is located
on the rear of the instrument) and configure it as required after you have familiarised yourself
with the operation (see chapter: "7. Operation via Touch-screen").
After turning the power switch to ON, the instrument will go through a brief initialization
process and system check, which will take about 40 seconds.
As soon as the system check is completed the system will default to an operating screen
similar to "Figure - Initial screen" in chapter 3.6.
Allow at least 15 minutes of warm up time to achieve thermal equilibrium between the controller and its environment before performing critical pressure measurements.

7. Operation via Touch-screen
This chapter describes the procedures for operating the CPC3000 from the front panel.
Tabs, Keys, Value Entry and Check Boxes:
Local operation is accomplished by observing the data presented in the display menus,
then pressing the on-screen tab, key, value entry or check box for the desired sub-menu,
function or selection. Tabs are used to access the subset of a menu, keys open new menus,
make selections or change a parameter, value entry opens a keypad to enter a value, and
check boxes allow choice of associated display option.
Screen hierarchy:
Navigation within the CPC3000 is similar to a computer file system or a web page. Keys or
tabs activate sub-menus. Within the sub-menus there may be related sub-menus or selections. To return back through the hierarchy of screens the [BACK] key is provided.
Throughout this manual screen hierarchy will be designated using the following conven-
tion: "MAIN -> SUB-MENU -> SELECTION" or "MAIN -> SUB-MENU -> TAB -> SELECTION". The hierarchical menu structure is very intuitive and will become more obvious after
reviewing following examples.
7.1 Setting the operating language
In the upper left corner of the main display is the [SETUP] key . To change the language
select the SETUP key and select the [DISPLAY] tab if not already active. In the box labelled "VIEW" on the upper right side of the resulting "MAIN -> SETUP -> DISPLAY" screen there is
a [FLAG] key. Press the [FLAG] key and a selection of language keys will appear. Select
the desired language. Then press the [BACK] key to return to the main menu which will now
display in the selected language. Using our convention, selecting English would be described
by the following: "MAIN -> SETUP -> DISPLAY -> FLAG -> ENGLISH".
7.2 Display configuration
The CPC3000 main menu "Figure - Main Menu" shows the main screen that appears when
the unit is turned on. A point by point description of each element is shown in this figure. The
[SETUP] key opens the SETUP menu where changes can be made and information
viewed. Each sub-menu in the SETUP menu can be activated by pressing the [DISPLAY],
[CONTROL], [REMOTE], [INFO] or [SERVICE] tab. Each of these SETUP sub-menus will be
discussed in detail in chapter 7.8.
The points on the main menu that are independent of the SETUP menus are the setpoint indication, the actual pressure reading, the units of measure and the control modes (MEASURE, CONTROL and VENT), plus the three tab menus used for selecting a setpoint.
The [PRESSURE UNIT] key indicates the currently chosen pressure unit and can be pressed to
open a menu that allows selection of English, metric, or user defined pressure units.
The CPC3000 main menu shown in "Figure - Optional Elements" shows elements that can
be displayed on the main menu and describes the three choices available for setpoint entry
(Numeric keypad, STEP and JOG). Optional elements include the Communication status icon
which indicates a connection or disconnection from a remote computer, and the barometric
reference indication showing the value of the atmospheric pressure measured by the optional
internal barometric reference sensor.

7.3 Setpoint Entry
The control setpoint can be entered using the default numeric keypad or the alternate STEP
or JOG keypads that appear on the right side of the main menu when selected using the
[SETPOINT ENTRY SIDE-MENU] tabs on the lower right hand side of the
main menu. These alternative methods of entering the setpoint have advantages in different
situations and have been designed to increase ease of use and productivity.
The numeric keypad shown in "Figure - Numeric Keypad" to the left,
is the default keypad that appears every time the unit is turned on or
can be activated using the [0-9] tab. A setpoint value can be entered
directly using this keypad. As the value of the setpoint is entered the
setpoint field will turn blue and the entered value will appear in the field.
The Setpoint value can be deleted completely using the [DELETE]
key, the last digit of the entered setpoint can be deleted using
the [CLEAR ENTRY] key or the setpoint value can be accepted
using the [ACCEPT ENTRY]key. When the [ACCEPT ENTRY] key
is pressed the setpoint field will turn white and the new setpoint will
become active. In control mode, the controller output will ramp to the
entered setpoint. Caution: If the [ACCEPT ENTRY] key is not pressed
Figure - Numeric Keypad
the previously entered setpoint will remain active.
Figure - STEP Keypads
Figure - JOG Keypad
The STEP keypads shown in "Figure - STEP
Keypads", provide a way to increment the
setpoint by defined steps. Steps are a percent of
the user defined limits set in the MAIN -> SETUP
-> CONTROL or actual pressure values that are
displayed in the pressure units selected in the
main menu. A total of 12 steps are provided.
When a step is pressed the related setpoint is
immediately entered as the active setpoint. In
control mode, the controller output will ramp to
this setpoint. The STEP Keypad can be modified
in the MAIN -> SETUP -> DISPLAY menu
discussed in chapter 7.8.1.
The JOG Keypad shown in "Figure - JOG Keypad", provides a way to
jog the setpoint up or down by small increments. The increments are
determined by the resolution, the maximum control limit and/or the
units of measure. For example, if the resolution is set to display four
decimals then the small triangle pointing up will change the setpoint by
+0.0001 and the small triangle pointing down will change the setpoint
by -0.0001. In the same way, the medium triangles will change the
setpoint by ±0.0010 and the large triangles will change the setpoint by
±0.0100 as shown in the figure. When the Resolution, the maximum
control limit or the units of measure are changed so that three decimals
are displayed, then the JOG functions will change to ±0.001, ±0.010
and ±0.100 respectively. This is useful when adjusting the pointer of a
manometer congruent to the skale.

7.5 Data Entry
When there is a requirement to enter specific numeric or alpha values into the system, the
method of entry is consistent for all instances. When a [VALUE ENTRY] key is pressed a
dialog box will appear similar to "Figure - Value Entry". This Value Entry dialog box will have
a numeric or alpha keypad, when appropriate minimum and maximum value limits, current
value and a window that shows the new value entered. The value can be deleted completely
using the [DELETE] key, the last digit of the entered setpoint can be deleted using the
[CLEAR ENTRY] key or the setpoint value can be accepted using the [ACCEPT ENTRY]
key.
Figure - Value Entry
7.6 Pressure unit, Pressure mode and Emulation mode
The Pressure [UNIT] key is shown on the main screen below the current pressure value and
displays the most recently chosen pressure units and the mode (absolute or gauge). If the
optional barometric reference is installed a [MODE] key replaces the mode indication to the
right of the units key. This [MODE] key indicates absolute or gauge mode. When the key is
pressed it will switch between the "native mode" of the internal sensor to the emulation mode.
The "native mode" is the mode of the sensor that is installed and is either absolute or gauge.
Emulation mode uses the value of the barometric reference to emulate the mode that is alternate to the native mode. The CPC3000 can emulate gauge from a native absolute sensor or
absolute from a native gauge sensor. The [MODE] key indicates the native mode with a blue
key background and emulation mode with a light blue key background. The units and mode
chosen remain the same when the CPC3000 is turned off then back on.
Native sensor is gauge, no barometric reference installed.
Native sensor is gauge, barometric reference installed.

Pneumatic High-Speed Pressure Controller CPC3000
7.8.1 SETUP Display
The MAIN -> SETUP -> DISPLAY menu contains elements that change the appearance
and function of components displayed on the main menu. Following is a description of the
elements of this menu.
Filter: The filter selection keys [LOW], [NORMAL], and [HIGH] dampen the pressure
display to reduce the affect of pneumatic noise associated with the device under test or the
test environment.
Resolution: The resolution section of the SETUP Display menus allows the user to change
the resolution of the current pressure reading to be [4], [5] or [6] digits.
Stable Window and Delay: The stable window is the percentage of the full scale value
of the internal sensor that the current pressure can deviate (+/-) from the setpoint and still
display a stable indication. The stable delay is the number of seconds that the instrument
must remain within the stable window before the stable indication is displayed.
Language: The "VIEW" section of the SETUP display menu shows a flag, a country and a
language on a key. This is the current language. Press this key to access a menu containing
other languages that are available. "Figure - Languages" below shows the language selection screen.

7.8.2 SETUP Control
Configuration of parameters associated with setting limits and adjusting parameters used
to control pressure are configured in the MAIN -> [SETUP] -> [CONTROL] menu shown in
"Figure - SETUP Control".
Figure - SETUP Control
Maximum and Minimum Control Limits: The [DATA ENTRY] keys next to the [MINIMUM]
and [MAXIMUM] labels in "Figure - SETUP Control" allow the operator to select any
range within the full scale range of the internal sensor. This is the "user defined range". For
example: if the CPC3000 has a 0-5 bar internal sensor, the user can define a range of 0-4
bar. When the user defined range is changed, a corresponding change occurs in the STEP
menu so that the percent STEP will equal the corresponding value within the user defined
range. For example: the 80 % value of a 0-4 bar user defined range will be 3.2 bar but for a
user defined range of 0-2 the 80 % value equals 1.6 bar. The user defined range can be
set to the same range as the pressure device being tested. This useful when there is
a test that requires calibration at intervals equal to a percentage of the range. Each
individual step can also be changed by pressing the [STEP] key and entering a
new value.
Bar or %FS: The [SELECTED UNITS] and [%FS] keys switch the
STEP keypad display in the main menu and on the SETUP screen from the user selected
units to percent of the full scale of the user defined range. The values when shown in the
[SELECTED UNITS] mode correspond to the values in the [%FS] mode. For example, in
"Figure - PSI Mode", the [PSI] key is pressed
and the value shown in the 100 % step is
4.0000 corresponding to the maximum limit
chosen in this same screen.
Individual steps in %FS or selected units
mode can be included or excluded from the
step menu by changing the [Check Box]
next to the STEP.

9. Trouble-shooting measures
If faults cannot be repaired, the system must be taken out of operation
immediately and protected against unintentional restarting. This information should be reported to authorized service personnel.
Warning
In case of faults caused by defects of the electrical or pneumatic/hydraulic equipment the
operators must inform their superiors immediately and call in the qualified and authorised
technical staff for maintenance.
Repairs must only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service
personnel.
Work on electrical or pneumatic/hydraulic equipment must only be
performed by qualified and authorized service personnel, observing the
corresponding safety regulations.
9.1 Table: Fault description and measures

10. Re-calibrating and servicing
We recommend having the system re-calibrated by the manufacturer at regular intervals of
approximately 12 months. Every re-calibration at the factory also includes a comprehensive
and free checking of all system parameters.
The CPC3000 requires almost no maintenance, because all moving parts are extremely
robust. There are no parts which have to be serviced by the user.
During each re-calibration the function of the integrated relief valves are checked and the lithium battery in the processor board (which is only essential for the time and date) is changed if
necessary.
Before cleaning the surface of the instrument, make sure the instrument
is not pressurized, that the power is off and the power supply has been
disconnected.
Warning
Caution
To clean the Touch-screen, use only customary plastic or glass cleaning
agents in compliance with the guidelines of the manufacturer. Use clothes
which are not prone to generate fluffs.

11. Removal of the system
Work on electrical or pneumatic/hydraulic equipment must only be carried
out by qualified and authorized service personnel, observing the corresponding safety regulations.
Warning
When dismantling the system proceed as follows:
1. Make sure that there is no positive or negative pressure on the system and that all parts of
the instrument are at room temperature.
2. Switch the system off by pressing the power switch located at the rear of the instrument.
3. First pull out the power cable from the power socket and then from the power supply input.
4. Disconnect the pressure connections.
If a connection to a SWAGELOK® - connection is to be disconnected,
overturning or loosening the SWAGELOK® - connection must be prevented
with suitable tools.
Warning
5. Remove the system as necessary.
6. Protect connections with the protective caps supplied.

12. Transport of the system
Before the system is shipped it must be clean and free of dirt and debris.
This is particularly important if the medium is a health hazard such as a
corrosive, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive, etc.
Warning
The precision measuring system CPC3000 must only be shipped in an appropriate transport
box. If necessary, please ask for a proper transport box:
Follow the following instructions to prevent damage.
1. Wrap the system in anti-static plastic foil.
2. Place the system in the box assuring the instrument is packed tight with insulating material
surrounding the instrument on all sides.
3. If possible add a bag of desiccant to the box
4. Make sure that the shipment is marked as transport of a highly sensitive measuring instru
ment.
