717 Series
Pressure Calibrators
Instruction Sheet
Introduction
The Fluke 717 Series Pressure Calibrators are compact, battery-powered, 5-digit
instruments that perform the following calibration and measurement functions:
•
Calibrates P/I (pressure to current) transmitters
•
Measures pressure using a 1/8-inch NPT pressure fitting and an internal
pressure sensor
•
Measures pressure via a Fluke 700 Series Pressure Module
•
Measures current up to 24 mA
•
Sources loop voltage (to 24 V dc)
•
Displays simultaneously pressure and current measurements
•
Calculates mA percentage in Percent Mode
•
Calculates mA error in Percent Error Mode
The 717 Pressure Calibrators (hereafter, “the Calibrator”) include:
•
717 1G
•
717 1000G
•
717 30G
•
717 1500G
•
717 100G
•
717 3000G
•
717 300G
•
717 5000G
•

Full Scale Pressure sensor is as listed in the “Specifications” section under
“Pressure Specifications”. The Calibrator is an IEC 61010, CAT I 30 V, Pollution
Degree 2 instrument. A CAT I instrument is designed to protect against transients
from low-energy sources like, for example, electronic circuits or a copy machine.
The Calibrator comes with a holster, an installed 9 V battery, a set of test leads and
alligator clips, and a 14-language instruction sheet pack. If the Calibrator is
damaged or something is missing, contact the place of purchase immediately.

The Calibrator measures and displays pressure sensor inputs in the units listed
below:
•
Psi
•
inH2O@4°C
•

If inappropriate units are selected, the output of Fluke 700P pressure modules can
be too low to be displayed or can cause the Calibrator to display
OL
(overload).

A "W
Caution"
identifies conditions and hazards that may damage the Calibrator
or equipment under test.
XW
Warnings
To avoid electric shock, injury, or damage to the Calibrator:
•
Use the Calibrator only as described in this Instruction Sheet.
•
Using the Calibrator in a manner not specified by the manufacturer might
impair the protection provided by the Calibrator.
•
Do not use the Calibrator to make measurements in a CAT II, CAT III, or
CAT IV environment.
CAT I equipment is designed to protect against transient from high-
voltage, low-energy sources, such as electronic circuits or a copy
machine.
•
Do not use the Calibrator around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
•
Inspect the Calibrator before use. Do not use it if appears damaged.
•
Check the test leads for continuity, damaged insulation, or exposed metal.
Replace damaged test leads.
•
Never apply more than 30 V between any two terminals, or between any
terminal and earth ground.
•
Use the proper terminals, mode, and range for your measuring or sourcing
application.
•
To prevent damage to the unit under test, put the Calibrator in the correct
mode before connecting the test leads.
•
When making connections, connect the COM test lead before the live lead;
when disconnecting, disconnect the live lead before the COM lead.
•
Never use the Calibrator with the case open.
•
Make sure the battery door is closed before you use the Calibrator.
•
Replace the battery as soon as the
M
(low battery) symbol appears to
avoid false readings that can lead to electric shock.
•
Remove test leads from the Calibrator before opening the case or battery
door.
•
To avoid a violent release of pressure in a pressurized system, shut off the
valve and slowly bleed off the pressure before you attach or detach the
pressure sensor or Pressure Module fitting to the pressure line.
When servicing the Calibrator, use only specified replacement parts.
W
Caution
When using pressure pressure modules, to avoid damage to the
Calibrator module connections, follow all procedures in the pressure
module instruction sheet.
W
Caution
When using pressure sensor connections, to avoid damage to the
Calibrator or equipment to which it is attached:
•
To avoid overpressure damage, do not apply pressures that exceed
ranges listed under “Pressure Specifications”.
•
•
To avoid corrosion in the pressure sensor, use the Calibrator only
with media compatible with glass, ceramic, silicon, RTV, nitrile
(Buna -N) type 303 stainless steel, and nickel.
To avoid damaging the Calibrator, do not apply torque between the
pressure fitting and the Calibrator case. See Figure 1 for the proper
technique.

Getting Acquainted
Press
O
to turn the Calibrator ON and OFF. The Calibrator displays pressure and
current measurements simultaneously.
The upper part of the display shows the applied pressure.
Press
U
to select a different unit. When you turn the Calibrator OFF, the next
time you turn the Calibrator back ON it returns to the pressure unit you last used.
The lower part of the display shows the current (up to 24 mA) applied to the
current (mA) inputs. See Figure 2.
Power Saver
The Calibrator automatically turns off after 30 minutes of inactivity. To reduce this
time or disable this feature:
1.
With the Calibrator OFF, press
O.
2.
P.S. xx
is displayed, where
xx
is the turn-off time in minutes.
OFF
means the
power saver is disabled.
3.
Press
h
(W) to decrease or
a
(
Z
) to increase the turn-off time.
4.
To disable, press
h
until the display shows
OFF.
The Calibrator resumes normal operation after 2 seconds.
