2 Product Description

2.1 General Product Information

■ Application

Pressure balances are the most accurate instruments for the calibration of electronic or mechanical

pressure measuring instruments. The direct measurement of pressure, according to its definition as a

quotient of force and area, and the use of high-quality materials result in small uncertainties of

measurement and an excellent long-term stability.

For these reasons pressure balances have already been used in calibration laboratories of industry,

national institutes and research labs for many years. Due to the integrated pressure generation and the

purely mechanical measuring principle the CPB5800 is also ideally suited for on-site use as well as

service and maintenance purposes.

■ Piston-cylinder measuring system

Pressure is defined as a quotient of force and area. Correspondingly, the core of the CPB5800 is a very

precisely manufactured piston/cylinder system. The piston and cylinder are manufactured from

hardened steel and tungsten carbide, respectively, and are very well protected in a solid stainless

steel/hardened tool steel housing against impacts or contamination from outside.

As a standard the connection of the piston-cylinder system is a G3/4 female thread. The patented

ConTect quick connector is available as an option. This enables the piston-cylinder system to be

changed quickly and safely without any tools.

The CPS5800 piston-cylinder systems are available in two fundamentally different designs, depending

on measuring range.

■ Single-range piston-cylinder systems (for measuring ranges 120 bar and 300 bar or 1,600 psi and

4,000 psi respectively)

■ Dual-range piston-cylinder systems (for measuring ranges 700 bar, 1,200 bar and 1,400 bar or

10,000 psi, 16,000 psi and 20,000 psi respectively)

The accuracy is 0.015 % as a standard (optional also to 0.006 %) of reading.

The dual-range piston-cylinder system offers two measuring ranges in one housing with automatic

measuring range switching from low-pressure to high-pressure pistons. This provides the user with an

extremely flexible measuring instrument that can cover a wide measuring range with high accuracy,

with only one piston-cylinder unit and one set of masses. Additionally two test points can automatically

be achieved by the operator loading the masses only once (low pressure – high pressure area

utilisation).

The entire construction design of the piston-cylinder unit and the very precise manufacturing of the

piston and the cylinder stand for excellent operating characteristics with a long free rotation time and

low fall rates and for a very high long term stability. Therefore the recommended re-calibration interval

is 2 up to 5 years depending on the conditions of usage.

Pressure Balance

CPB5800

WIKA Operating Instructions Pressure Balance Version 1.1

■ Functioning

Depending on the measuring range of the device under test the operator can fit the instrument base

with the corresponding system. In order to generate the individual test points, the piston-cylinder

system is loaded with masses. The weight applied is proportional to the desired pressure and provided

by using optimally graduated weights. These weights are manufactured to standard gravity (9.80665

m/s²) although they can be adjusted for customers specific location/gravity value.

The integrated priming pump and the 250 ml tank enable large test volumes to be easily filled and

pressurised. For further pressure increases and fine adjustment, a very precisely-controllable spindle

pump is fitted, which is self-contained with in the pump body when in use.

As soon as the measuring system reaches equilibrium, there is a balance of forces between the

pressure and mass load applied.

The excellent quality of the system ensures that this pressure remains stable over several minutes, so

that the pressure value for comparative measurements can be read without any problems, or also so

that more complex adjustments can be carried out on the device under test.

2.2 Basic principle of the Pressure Balance

Their operating principle is based on the physical definition of pressure, the quotient of force and area.

Force

Pr essure 

Area

The key element of the pressure balance is a precision-manufactured piston-cylinder system with a

precisely measured cross-sectional area.

To apply a pressure charge to the system, the piston is placed under a load with (calibrated) masses.

Each mass from the set of masses is identified by a nominal weight, which generates a pressure value

in the system (assuming standard reference conditions). Each mass has a number and in the

calibration certificate describing the mass value to each mass with its resultant pressure value. The

masses are chosen according to the desired pressure value.

After that, the integrated spindle pump increases the pressure until the masses are in a floating state.

2.3 Environmental factors

The piston pressure gauge is calibrated to standard reference conditions when it leaves the factory

(depending on customer specifications).

If there are significant deviations between the application conditions and the defined reference

conditions, appropriate corrections must be made.

Following are the main factors that enter into play and must be considered.

These corrections can be made automatically with the Calibrator Unit CPU6000

(see accessories point 8)!

2.3.1 Local fluctuations in gravity-value

The local force of gravity is subject to major fluctuations caused by geographical variation.

The value may differ from one place on earth to another by as much as 0.5 %. Since this value has a

direct effect on the measurement, it is essential that it be taken into consideration.

The masses can even be adjusted during manufacturing to match the location where they will be used.

Another option, especially if the device will be used at multiple locations, is to perform a calibration to

the standard gravity,

"Standard-g = 9.80665 m/s

Then a correction must be performed for each measurement according to the formula below:

g  Application site

True pressure  Nominal value 

S tandard g

Example:

Local gravity set during manufacturing: 9.806650 m/s

Locale gravity at application site: 9.811053 m/s

Nominal pressure: 100 bar

Local

9.81105

True pressure: p  p

Nominal

 100bar  100.0449bar

Standard

9.80665

Without the correction, measurements would differ from the nominal applied pressure by 0.05%.

Pressure Balance

CPB5800

WIKA Operating Instructions Pressure Balance Version 1.1

2.3.2 Temperature (Piston-cylinder)

The effective area of the piston-cylinder system is influenced by temperature.

The effect depends on the material used and is described by the temperature coefficient (TK).

In the event of deviations from standard reference conditions (typically 20°C), the following formula

must be used to make a correction:

True pressure Nominal value 

1tAppl tReferenceTK

Example:

Reference temperature: 20°C

Temperature during use: 23°C

TK: 0.0022%

True pressure



100bar  99.99340bar

123 202.2

5



Without the correction, measurements would differ from the nominal applied pressure by 0.007%.

2.3.3 Ambient conditions

The effects of ambient conditions

■ air pressure

■ room temperature

■ relative humidity

should always be taken into consideration if the highest level of accuracy is required.

Fluctuations in ambient conditions change air density.

The air density affects the pressure through the buoyancy of the masses:

Air density

Weight



 Nominal weight 1

Weight density

The air density is typically 1.2 kg/m3

The density of the masses (non-magnetic steel) is 7900 kg/m3

A fluctuation of 5% in the relative humidity causes an additional uncertainty in the measurement of

about 0.001%.

Pressure Balance

CPB5800

WIKA Operating Instructions Pressure Balance Version 1.1

2.3.4 How the effective area responds to pressure

At higher pressures, the effective cross-sectional surface changes due to the pressure load.

The ratio of the cross-section and prevailing pressure is linear within an initial approximation. It is

represented by the coefficient of expansion caused by pressure distortion ().

Nominal pressure

Without the correction, measurements would differ from the nominal applied pressure by 0.01%.

2.4 Arrangement of control elements

The CPB5800 instrument bases are available in 2 variants:

■ Standard hydraulic base

3. Commissioning and Operation

3.1 Preparation

3.1.1 Setting up the Device

■ Set up the pressure balance on a solid surface. If it is not resting on a solid foundation or is subject

to vibrations, measurements and safety could be affected. This should be avoided.

■ If no temperature control system is present, the device should at least not be placed near a heat

element or window. This will reduce drafts and warm air flows as much as possible.

■ The spirit level should be used to level the assembly. At this time, rough levelling can be performed

without the piston-cylinder system. Using the rotating foot studs, position the device so that it is

horizontal. For uppermost accuracy, the spirit level should be put on top of the fitted piston and its

level adjusted to the horizontal.

■ Place the star handle with knobs onto the spindle pump. Ensure that the spring-loaded thrust pad

engages into the star handle bushing.

■ We recommend unscrewing the spindle pump completely when you start to record measurement

values, (turning anticlockwise) to allow enough swept displacement for measurements. The outlet

valve must be opened during this process.

■ The oil container may need to be filled, or refilled (volume 250 ml). For this purpose, the locking

screw with the oil filling symbol on top of the basement must be opened. Special oil must be used for

refilling (1 litre supplied, or available as accessory). The system must be vented before initial filling,

or after a complete oil change. For this purpose, please proceed according to section 5.3.3.

■ The protection film on the screwed drain plug of the oil container need to be removed before

operating (coverage of the ventilation hole during transportation).

3.1.2 Hydraulic pressure media used

Mineral oil based hydraulic fluid

An hydraulic mineral oil with a viscosity grade VG22 is used as standard.

Certain customers may wish to use the piston unit on other hydraulic fluids. Before

attempting this, the following should be checked:

Pressure medium is compatible with bronze, hardened tool steel, tungsten carbide and

with o-rings/composite seals used in the assembly. Special seal kits are available for

certain pressure media.

The new pressure medium being used will have inherent physical properties (density,

surface tension) that may affect the uppermost accuracy of the unit. Units that have

been manufactured for a non-standard pressure medium will have had its calibrated

mass adjusted for the fluids buoyancy and surface tension components. If the piston

unit has not been specially calibrated, the accuracy of the unit will be reduced, and this

should be taken into account.

Pressure Balance

CPB5800

WIKA Operating Instructions Pressure Balance Version 1.1

Skydrol 500B

The instrument base is also available for use on Skydrol 500B or any other phosphate ester based fire

resistant liquid. This base is fitted with Ethylene Polypropylene (EP) seals. The operating characteristics

of the piston-cylinder system should be tested on Skydrol. EP seals are not suitable for mineral oils.

Note that continual immersion of the instrument housing in Skydrol will cause

deterioration. Spillage should be wiped off the housing / cover immediately.

Brake fluids

The instrument base for use on non-petroleum based brake fluids should be ordered fitted with EP

seals and the operating characteristics of the piston-cylinder system should be tested on the liquid. This

liquid is known by the following names:

FMVSS No.116, DOT3 or DOT4, SAE J 1 703, BS AU 174:Part 2, IS04925.

Other fluids

The instrument base can be used on silicone based fluids, sebacate based fluids, or inert

perfluorinatedpolyethers such as Fluorolube, Fomblin, Halocarbon, which are of the viscosity as the

standard mineral oil based hydraulic fluid mentioned above and are chemically inert, being suitable for

contact with metals and with the nitrile seals which are standard on the base.

3.1.3 Installing the piston-cylinder system

■ The piston-cylinder system that is used depends on the device to be tested. You should select a

system with a comparable or higher measuring range.

■ The connection for the piston-cylinder system in the instrument base is available in 2 different

versions:

Connection for piston-cylinder system with G3/4 B (male) thread (see section 3.1.3.1)

Connection for piston-cylinder system with ConTect quick connector, not for the 1,400 bar-version

(see section 3.1.3.2)

Pressure Balance

CPB5800

WIKA Operating Instructions Pressure Balance Version 1.1

3.1.3.1 Connection for piston-cylinder system with G3/4 B (male) thread

Before removing the transit plug on the connector for the piston-cylinder system,

make sure the system is not under pressure (open the outlet valve).

■ The piston-cylinder system is connected vertically onto the thread of the piston receptacle, and

tightened by hand. Excess force is not required to achieve an effective seal. An O-ring seal is

already fitted, so no additional sealing material is required.

Ensure that the sealing surface of the piston-cylinder system is clean.

Check the o-ring in the piston stand is correctly seated and for any sign of wear.

Replace, if necessary.

■ For an exact alignment of the device, the spirit level may be removed from the base plate and placed

on the top of the fitted piston-cylinder system. This will ensure the most accurate levelling of the

piston-cylinder system.

sure the system is not under pressure (open the outlet valve).

■ Place the piston-cylinder system vertically in the quick connector.

Ensure that the sealing surface of the piston-cylinder system is clean.

Check the o-ring in the ConTect stand is correctly seated and for any sign of

Replace, if necessary.

■ Turning the butterfly screw about one and a half turn clockwise (as far as it will go) is enough to

screw the system in place with an automatic seal (finger-tight).

■ For an exact alignment of the device, the spirit level may be removed from the base plate and placed

on the top of the fitted piston-cylinder system. This will ensure the most accurate levelling of the

piston-cylinder system.

3.1.3 Connecting the device under test

■ Place the device to be calibrated/verified in the quick connector with the knurled nut. It can be freely

positioned. Hand-tightening will suffice for effective sealing.

■ To calibrate instruments with rear/back entry connections, use the 90° angle connection (see

accessories section 8).

Check the o-ring in the test stand is correctly seated and for any sign of wear.

Replace, if necessary.

Please see to it, that each instrument mounted to the pressure balance must be

clean inside.

■ The quick connector comes equipped with a G 1/2 threaded insert in the standard delivery package.

When you are calibrating devices with different connection threads, the threaded inserts

can be changed as appropriate (see accessories "Adapter Set"). For short connection

threads an additional sealing insert (order no. 2011514 resp. content of the adapter set)

can be mounted onto the existing sealing surface in the knurled nut.

3.1.4 Venting the system

After installing the piston-cylinder system and the device under test, air may be trapped in the system.

The system may be vented before beginning the calibration using the following procedure:

■ The piston-cylinder system and the device under test must be clamped, and the complete mass set

must be loaded on the piston-cylinder system.

■ Generate a pressure of approximately 50 bar using the priming pump

■ Increase the pressure with the spindle pump until just below the final value of the measuring range

of the piston-cylinder system, or of the device under test (the smaller pressure range is the decisive

factor).

Important: The piston-cylinder system must remain in its lower position for this

operation, i.e. not yet moving into equilibrium.

■ Open the outlet valve slowly, any trapped air will escape into the tank

This procedure may need to be repeated 1 to 2 times in order to remove all trapped air.

The device is now ready to use.

3.2 Operation

3.2.1 Procedure for single-range piston-cylinder system 1,600 psi or 120 bar

3.2.1.1 Mass loading

■ Load the piston head with masses equivalent to the required pressure calibration point required.

Ensure the masses are correctly located in its respective spigot/recess.

Each mass has the following markings:

-Pressure Value

-Piston Area

-Mass set number

For high accuracy calibration, an additional marking (letter or letter/number combination)

is marked on the mass. This is to identify masses of similar nominal pressure values, and

thus obtain the actual mass value (grams) of said item.

■ This piston-cylinder unit has a basic head mass equivalent to 10 psi. If calibration is required in

another pressure unit, the first mass applied to the piston head should be the make-up mass (small

mass with ‘+PISTON’ marking).

3.2.1.2 Approaching the pressure value

■ The system must first be filled with oil and pre-compressed.

■ For this the outlet valve must be closed.

■ Operate the priming pump for several strokes. The pressure increases to a maximum of about 50

bar (depending on the volume of the connected test specimen).

■ After that, increase the pressure by turning the built-in spindle pump clockwise.

■ Just before the generated pressure reaches the actual calibration point, the masses should be

rotated by hand (approx 30-40 RPM) to ensure that the piston is in free-rotation. Care should be

applied when rotating the masses that no un-necessary transverse loads are applied to the piston.

Never rotate the piston-cylinder unit, if the piston is in the lower or upper block

position.

3.2.1.3 Pressure stable

■ Continue generating pressure until the system is in a state of equilibrium.

■ As the pressure calibration point is achieved, the piston will begin to move in an upward direction to

its ‘FLOATING’ position. The ‘FLOATING’ (free rotation) position is between 1-7mm above the

cylinder. To confirm this, the operator can press down lightly (use index finger) onto the top of the

masses applied. If the piston and masses appear to bounce (move freely up and down) the piston

unit is at pressure value of masses applied.

As there is only a small pressure change required between the piston floating/not

floating we recommend turning the pump spindle slowly and evenly clockwise.

■ The piston and thus the test pressure as well now remain stable for several minutes.

3.2.2 Procedure for single-range piston-cylinder system 4,000 psi or 300 bar

3.2.2.1 Mass load

■ The piston head has a tapped hole in its uppermost surface. To achieve its initial start pressure

value (30 psi or 2 bar) a designated hexagonal mass must be screwed into the piston head. This

should be applied before starting any calibration.

■ Load the piston head with masses equivalent to the required pressure calibration point required.

Ensure the masses are correctly located in its respective spigot/recess.

Each mass has the following markings:

-Pressure Value

-Piston Area

-Mass set number

For high accuracy calibration, an additional marking (letter or letter/number combination)

is marked on the mass. This is to identify masses of similar nominal pressure values, and

thus obtain the actual mass value (grams) of said item.

3.2.2.2 Approaching the pressure value

■ The system must first be filled with oil and pre-compressed.

■ For this the outlet valve must be closed.

■ Operate the priming pump for several strokes. The pressure increases to a maximum of about 50

bar (depending on the volume of the connected test specimen).

■ After that, increase the pressure by turning the built-in spindle pump clockwise.

■ Just before the generated pressure reaches the actual calibration point, the masses should be

rotated by hand (approx 30-40 RPM) to ensure that the piston is in free-rotation. Care should be

applied when rotating the masses that no un-necessary transverse loads are applied to the piston.

Never rotate the piston-cylinder unit, if the piston is in the lower or upper block

position.

3.2.2.3 Pressure stable

■ Continue generating pressure until the system is in a state of equilibrium.

■ As the pressure calibration point is achieved, the piston will begin to move in an upward direction to

its ‘FLOATING’ position. The ‘FLOATING’ (free rotation) area is when the bottom edge of the

auxiliary cylinder fitted to the piston head has risen to a position within the knurled area of the stud

fitted to the piston unit. To confirm this, the operator can press down lightly (use index finger) onto

the top of the masses applied. If the piston and masses appear to bounce (move freely up and down)

the piston unit is at pressure value of masses applied.

As there is only a small pressure change required between the piston floating/not

floating we recommend turning the pump spindle slowly and evenly clockwise.

■ The piston and thus the test pressure as well now remain stable for several minutes.
