The Fluke 750P29 High Pressure Module will turn your Fluke multifunction calibrator into a full-fledged pressure calibrator. This flexible module not only works with multifunction calibrators like the 725, 726, or 750 Series Calibrators but also extends the measurement range of Fluke pressure calibrators. Since this pressure module is calibrated independently, it can be swapped from one calibrator to another without a loss of accuracy or traceability.

Fluke 750P Series Pressure modules

Measuring pressure with Fluke 750P Series Pressure modules is as easy as connecting the module to a pressure source or hand pump, connecting the pressure module cable to the calibrator, and then applying pressure from the pressure source. At the touch of a button, the measured pressure is displayed digitally on the calibrator in up to 11 different engineering units quickly giving you the data you need. And, with “no tools required” connectors you don’t even need to reach for a wrench to make connections.

When used with the 750 Series Documenting Process Calibrators pressure readings can even be date/time-stamped and stored in documented calibration records for later retrieval. This saves time, eliminates errors, and supports compliance with quality standards and regulations.

A complete family of pressure modules

A family of 50 pressure modules covers pressure calibrations from 0 to 1 in H20 to 10000 psi (2.5 mbar to 690 bar).

Gage pressure modules have one pressure fitting and measure the pressure with respect to atmospheric pressure. Differential pressure modules have two pressure fittings and measure the difference between the applied pressure on the high fitting versus the low fitting. Each module is clearly labeled for pressure range and media compatibility. All modules include NPT, metric (BSP), and M20 adapters.

Quick and easy measurements

Fluke 750P Series Pressure Modules are easy to use. To measure pressure, connect the pressure module to a pressure source or hand pump and then connect the pressure module cable to the calibrator. Apply pressure from the pressure source and it is displayed digitally on the calibrator. At the touch of a button, the pressure may be displayed in up to 11 different engineering units. When used with the 750 Series Documenting Process Calibrators, pressure readings can be date/time stamped and stored electronically for later retrieval. This saves time, eliminates errors, and supports compliance with quality standards and regulations.

Pressure module performance and technology

Fluke 750P Series pressure modules are highly accurate, with specifications that apply from 0 °C to 50 °C (32 °F to 122 °F), a feature that sets them apart from other pressure calibrators. Many ranges have total uncertainties of 0.04 % of full scale and reference uncertainties of 0.01 % of full scale.

This performance is possible through the innovative application of mathematics and microprocessor power. Fluke pressure modules have silicon piezo-resistor sensors which consist of a resistive bridge fabricated in a silicon diaphragm. Pressure applied to the diaphragm causes a change in the balance of the bridge which is proportional to the applied pressure. The bridge balance change is not linear and is very sensitive to temperature. However, since these effects are quite stable with time and with repetitive changes of condition, the sensors are carefully characterized.

During manufacture, Fluke pressure module sensors are characterized by reading temperature and pressure at multiple points. A least-squares regression is used to calculate the coefficients of a polynomial expression for pressure. The coefficients, unique to that pressure module, are stored in the module’s memory.

Each module has its own microprocessor, allowing it to run the measurement circuitry and to communicate digitally with a calibrator. When connected to the calibrator, the modules coefficients are uploaded from the pressure module to the calibrator. Then, as pressure measurements are made, raw sensor values for pressure and temperature are digitally loaded to the calibrator, where the raw sensor values and coefficients are manipulated to derive and display the pressure reading.

Convenient setup

A one-meter cable between the pressure module and calibrator reduces the length of connecting tubing to the pressure source. The remote pressure head also provides an extra margin of safety and convenience by removing the calibrator and operator from the pressure source in the event or need for semi-remote measurements.
