High pressure liquids and gases are potentially hazardous. Energy stored in these liquids and gases can be released unexpectedly and with extreme force. High pressure systems should be assembled and operated only by personnel who have been instructed in proper safety practices.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL This manual provides the user with the information necessary to operate an MPG2-H Manual Pressure Generator/Controller for Hydraulic pressure. It also includes additional information provided to help you optimize MPG2 use and take full advantage of its many features and functions.

MGP2 and RPM4 are available as a single, integrated pressure calibration instrument designated E-DWT The MPG2-H-HV has a larger displacement variable volume (7 cc rather than 3 cc) and is intended for applications with higher test volumes to reduce variable volume stroke needed to generate the desired pressure.

2. INSTALLATION UNPACKING AND INSPECTION MPG2-H is delivered, along with its standard accessories, in a corrugated container held in place by expandable foam. The MPG2 is delivered with its valves closed and the variable volume (VV) fully screwed in. The reservoir and the MPG2 plumbing are free of fluid.
MPG2-H OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL INITIAL SETUP High pressure fluids are potentially hazardous. Energy stored in pressurized fluids can be released unexpectedly and with extreme force. High pressure systems should be assembled and operated only by personnel who have been instructed in proper safety practices.
MPG2-H is used to manually generate and adjust liquid pressure from atmosphere to 200 MPa (30 000 psi) (limited to 100 MPa (15 000 psi) with MPG2-H-HV) or using a priming pump, two valves and a variable volume. Fittings for connecting to a device or system under test are located on the top and middle rear of the instrument housing.
TEST1 and TEST2 port (see Section 3.2.3). The maximum operating pressure of the variable volume is 200 MPa (30 000 psi) with MPG2-H and 100 MPa (15 000 psi) with MPG-H-HV and. Do not generate pressure greater than the maximum operating pressure.
3. OPERATION Press down on the pump handle but do not release your downward force when the pump gets to end of stroke or becomes to difficult to push down. While maintaining the downward force on the pump handle, close the reservoir shut off valve to capture the priming pressure.
MPG2-H OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Opening the reservoir shut off valve while the MPG2 is under pressure will very rapidly drop the pressure. Generally, it is not recommended to drop the pressure applied to pressure measuring devices very rapidly. To reduce pressure slowly, use the variable volume and only open the reservoir shut off valve to open the system to atmosphere.
4. MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS MPG2 was designed for maintenance free operation. The only recommended regular maintenance is to flush the hydraulic system and replace the operating liquid. REPLACING LIQUID AND FLUSHING HYDRAULIC SYSTEM Regular replacement of MPG2’s operating liquid and flushing of the hydraulic system is recommended. To empty the reservoir, remove the reservoir cover and siphon the bulk of liquid out of the reservoir.
