The P3100 HP Series very high-pressure hydraulic deadweight tester incorporates the "Piston Gauge" principle, in which an applied pressure within the system, balances a known mass applied to a piston of known effective area. The unit comprises a base plate onto which is mounted a high-pressure manifold, a piston/cylinder unit (PCU), a fluid reservoir, a variable volume 4-arm spindle pressure generating system with a lever-style priming pump and a safety relief valve (which protects both the low- and high-pressure systems from accidental overpressure). A built-in test station allows quick and secure connection of the device under test. Adjustable leveling feet and an external level vial ensure proper leveling for optimal performance. Additionally, a piston float reference indicator helps the user easily identify the optimal "mid-float" position, enhancing measurement precision. The whole assembly is contained within a strong GRP housing.
The P3100 HP Series includes standard weights made from Series 3 non-magnetic stainless steel for superior stability and corrosion resistance. Each mass is individually marked with the instrument's serial number and its corresponding nominal pressure value. Choose from pressure units in psi, bar, or MPa. For added flexibility, optional PressCal software allows support for additional pressure units to suit your calibration needs.
- Pressure ranges to 60000 psi
- Standard Accuracy Delivers high pressure measurement at 0.02 % of reading without the need for pressure correction factors
- Optional Improved Accuracy of 0.015% of Reading: PressCal software supports users to easily apply all necessary corrections to allow for improved accuracy of 0.015 % of reading
- Three models available in ranges from 30,000 psi to 60,000 psi (2,000 bar to 4,000 bar): Select nominal increments in psi, bar or MPa pressure units
