Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester – With Pump

The Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester – With Pump is available in five variations with differing pressure ranges and measuring units. All these models have been optimised to calibrate pressure sensing instruments and can be used to check transducers, transmitters, gauges and pressure switches. For further information regarding the differences between these models, please see the table below.

The Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester includes an integrated hand pump allowing the user to create up to 300psi (20 bar) of pneumatic pressure. Alternatively, the user can connect an external gas source to the /NPT female external supply to create the necessary pressure.  In order to create the exact pressure required, the Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester includes a high-quality needle for fine adjustments.

Precision is at the forefront of this product’s design; it has a standard accuracy of 0.015% which can be improved to 0.008%. In order to achieve this, the Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester may be calibrated with regards to the user’s local gravity, ensuring that the effect of this force on the weight masses is accounted for when performing pressure measurements. Unless otherwise specified the Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester will be calibrated to standard gravity, 980.665 cm/s².

Furthermore, the Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester is supplied with an ISO 17025 accredited calibration certificate. In addition to this, the piston and cylinder assembly with a floatation indicator has been manufactured to the highest standards and as such has certified accuracies traceable to international standard laboratories, such as NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology). The piston/ cylinder assembly has been designed to reduce the effects of distortion and thermal coefficients whilst ensuring stability and durability.

Once pressure has been generated, the user adds weight masses to the piston in order to balance the upward force causing the piston and assembly to rise. In order to determine the final pressure, he/she calculates the sum of the nominal pressure values marked on each of the weight masses. For further information regarding this method, please see the video below.

The weight masses supplied with this tester are constructed from series 3 non-magnetic austenitic stainless steel and, as indicated above, are inscribed with the nominal pressure value relative to the high- or low-pressure piston. The instrument’s serial number is also inscribed on these weight masses. They are stored in a robust weight box with a secure locking mechanism, ensuring that they can be easily and safely transported between worksites.

Also adding to the ease of transportation of this tester is its removable lid. Moreover, The Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester’s mounted spirit level and adjustable feet mean that it can be set up in a variety of environments without compromising its accuracy. Furthermore, the test station design of this calibrator, the inclusion of O-rings and the supplied 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2 NPT and BSP adapters and M20 and M14 metric adapters, also add to the ease of this product’s setup; as a result  PTFE tape and wrenches are not required when adding additional modules to this tester. The Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester is also supplied with spare seals.

The combination of this product’s design and accurate measurement capabilities make the Fluke P3014-P Gas Deadweight Tester- With Pump a practical, precise calibrator ideal for checking a wide variety of pressure sensing instruments.
