Fluke Pressure Calibrator Fluke 717 Pressure Calibrator is designed for instrumentation technicians, maintenance units, and calibration specialists. This device combines pressure measurement capabilities, pressure generation, and current signal measurement, allowing the performance of pressure equipment and 4 to 20 milliamp loops to be verified within a single tool.
The Fluke 717 series is produced in various models to enable users to choose the appropriate option based on the required pressure range. Models in this family include 717 1G, 717 15G, 717 30G, 717 100G, 717 300G, 717 500G, 717 1000G, 717 1500G, 717 3000G, 717 5000G, and 717 10000G. The letter G in the model naming convention typically refers to the gauge pressure measurement version; however, the exact range and specifications of each model should be checked at the time of selection.
This calibrator is used for applications such as testing pressure transmitters, controlling pressure switches, examining industrial gauges, calibrating pneumatic equipment, and troubleshooting control circuits. Its portable design, rugged housing, and simple user interface make it easy to use in industrial environments, repair workshops, and equipment installation sites.
To choose the appropriate model, first, the maximum working pressure of the system and the desired measurement unit should be identified. It is advisable to have the working range of the device in the middle of the measurement range and to avoid selecting a model that operates too close to its upper limit. Additionally, the type of fluid, process connection, required accuracy, and the need for an internal pump or ancillary equipment should be reviewed prior to purchase.
