Pressure Calibrator Ace Instruments Bench Type Oil/Water Zero Leakage

Description

Product Overview

The Ace Instruments bench‑type pressure calibrator is engineered for high‑precision burst pressure testing in demanding industrial environments. Constructed with a robust stainless‑steel base plate, the unit offers exceptional stability while maintaining a lightweight profile of just 17.64 lb, allowing technicians to transport and position the calibrator with ease. Its dual‑mode capability lets users select either oil or water as the operating medium, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of pressure gauge and transmitter specifications.

Designed with a zero‑leakage architecture, the calibrator eliminates fluid loss during extended calibration cycles, preserving both accuracy and safety. The instrument features a 0‑400 kg/cm² pressure range and a vacuum capability down to 0.6 Bar, covering the full spectrum of requirements for pharmaceutical, petrochemical, and bulk‑drug quality control laboratories. The integrated liquid reservoir and lock‑needle system simplify fluid handling, while spare seals are supplied to guarantee long‑term reliability.

Every component of the calibrator has been selected for durability and performance. The four‑handle pressure generation system provides smooth, incremental pressure adjustments, and the included pressure adapter kit (1/8” BSP, 1/4” BSP, 3/8” BSP, 1/2” BSP) ensures seamless connection to a variety of test fixtures. The instrument’s clear analog dial, combined with a digital readout, offers both traditional and modern monitoring options for operators who prefer visual confirmation of pressure values.

Manufactured by Ace Instruments, a recognized leader in precision measurement equipment, this calibrator adheres to rigorous quality standards. Each unit undergoes a comprehensive calibration verification before leaving the factory, and a five‑year zero‑maintenance guarantee underscores the confidence the brand places in its engineering. The calibrator’s dimensions—11.81 × 5.12 × 7.87 inches—fit comfortably on standard workbenches, making it an ideal addition to any calibration laboratory or field service kit.

Usage

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, precise pressure verification is critical for ensuring the integrity of sealed containers and the performance of pressure‑sensitive devices. The Ace Instruments calibrator enables quality engineers to quickly validate pressure gauges and transmitters, reducing downtime and maintaining compliance with regulatory standards. Its oil‑operated mode is particularly useful for high‑temperature applications, while the water mode offers a cost‑effective solution for routine checks.

Petrochemical facilities often operate under extreme pressure conditions, requiring reliable calibration tools that can withstand harsh environments. The calibrator’s stainless‑steel construction resists corrosion from aggressive chemicals, and its zero‑leakage design prevents contamination of test fluids. Field technicians can deploy the unit on‑site to verify pressure sensors on pipelines, reactors, and safety relief valves, ensuring safe operation and preventing costly shutdowns.

Bulk‑drug production lines benefit from the calibrator’s rapid setup and intuitive user interface. Operators can select the desired pressure range, attach the appropriate adapter, and begin testing within minutes. The lightweight nature of the device reduces operator fatigue during repetitive calibration tasks, and the included spare seals and pointer puller extend service intervals, supporting continuous production schedules.

FAQ

What fluids can be used with this calibrator?

The calibrator is designed for both oil and water operation. Oil is recommended for high‑temperature or high‑viscosity testing, while water is suitable for most standard calibration tasks. Both fluids are supplied through the built‑in reservoir and lock‑needle system, which prevents cross‑contamination.

How often should the calibrator be serviced?

Under normal operating conditions, the unit requires no routine maintenance for up to five years, thanks to its zero‑maintenance design. Periodic visual inspections are advised, and any worn seals can be replaced using the spare seals provided in the package.

Can the calibrator be used on field equipment?

Yes. Its compact size and lightweight design make it ideal for on‑site calibration of pressure gauges, transmitters, and safety valves. The included pressure adapter kit covers common BSP connections, allowing quick attachment to a variety of field devices.

What is the accuracy of the pressure readings?

The instrument provides high‑precision measurement within the 0‑400 kg/cm² range, with an accuracy typically better than ±0.5 % of full scale. Calibration certificates are supplied with each unit to verify performance against national standards.

Is there a digital interface for data logging?

The current model focuses on analog readout for simplicity and reliability. However, Ace Instruments offers optional digital communication modules that can be retro‑fitted to enable data logging and integration with automated test systems.
