Commissioning with ventilation

4 Commissioning with ventilation
CAUTION! Risk of injury in case of damage.
Visual inspection required before use.
Damage to the device or its attachments can result in component failure and injuries
when the equipment is under pressure.
 Check the hand pump carefully for damage.
 Never use the hand pump if you have found any damage. Return the device immedi-
ately to the manufacturer for repair.
In order for the hand pump to be operated, it is vital that its connections with the reference
gauge and the test item are pressure-resistant.
Furthermore, for the best measurement procedure possible, sufficient and correct ventila-
tion of the measurement device is required. Only then can you reduce the pressure fluctua-
tions ( § 3.1) to a minimum.
CAUTION! Material damage!
The test sample, the adapter and the seal must be free from impurities.
If impurities enter the hand pump through the pressure hose, this may be damaged.
Maximum torque of the pressure connections!
Reference:
Test item:
Carry out the following steps* for the commissioning and ventilation of the hand pump. For
this, note also the warnings in section § 5.1 "Generating pressure".
 1. Fill the storage container to approximately two-thirds capacity with the required hy-
draulic liquid.
 2. Open the pressure relief valve by turning counter-clockwise.
 3. Turn the reference manometer with matching seal in the hand pump's connection (G ¼).
IMPORTANT! Do not tighten the reference yet!
 4. Carefully pump until the hydraulic liquid escapes at the connection and the piston sys-
tem has been ventilated.
 5. Only then should you tighten the reference.
 6. Pump 5...10 times to ventilate the ventilation channels.
 7. Turn the pressure relief valve counter-clockwise until it is firmly closed.
* The steps 1 up to 5 are only required for the first commissioning or during removal of the reference.
