The heart of the Source 3000 are the two micro-metering valves and the vernier provided for control of the internal nitrogen source. Overpressure protection is provided by a fully adjustable pressure regulator which is manually set for each new device being tested. The Source 3000 is designed for compatibility with all major manufacturer’s electronic calibration equipment.
Operation Pressure Cylinder Filling To initially fill or refill the internal pressure cylinder (3000 PSI max.) of the Source 3000, see Figure 2-1 below and proceed as described below. NOTE: The pressure cylinder used as the filling source must be regulated to provide a maximum output of 3049 PSIG.
