  • Page 3 1 Introduction The PACE Pressure Indicator measures both pneumatic and hydraulic pressures and displays, on a colour touch-screen, the measured pressure and instrument status. The touch-screen enables selections and settings in measuring modes. The instrument can be operated remotely through communication interfaces.
  • Page 4 Check the contents of the PACE1000 packaging with the list that follows: Packaging List - PACE1000 i) PACE1000 Pressure Indicator. ii) Adaptor, power supply (GE part number 191-370). iii) User guide and safety instructions, and CD containing the full documentation suite. iv) Calibration certificate.
  • Page 5 For free-standing instruments, the feet on the front of the base can be used elevate the instrument to a better viewing angle. Note: Allow a free flow of air around the instrument, especially at high ambient temperatures. 3.1 Connecting the Instrument WARNINGS TURN OFF THE SOURCE PRESSURE(S) AND CAREFULLY VENT THE PRESSURE LINES BEFORE DISCONNECTING OR CONNECTING THE PRESSURE LINES.

Make sure the user systems can be isolated and vented. 2.
  • Page 7 4 Installation The instrument connects to the Unit Under Test. 4.1 Input Pressure and Equipment The pressure should not exceed 1.25 x full-scale or MWP stated on the rear panel of the instrument. To protect the instrument from over-pressure a suitable protection device (such as a relief valve or bursting disc) must be fitted to prevent over pressurization.

  • Page 9 4.6 Hydraulic Pressure WARNINGS HYDRAULIC LIQUID IS DANGEROUS. OBSERVE RELEVANT HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. USE APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE BARRIERS AND EYE PROTECTION. BEFORE APPLYING PRESSURE, EXAMINE ALL FITTINGS AND EQUIPMENT FOR DAMAGE AND ENSURE THAT ALL EQUIPMENT IS TO THE CORRECT PRESSURE RATING.

Switch off the power supply before connecting or disconnecting the instrument. 2.
  • Page 11 Procedure 1. Locate instrument in rack mount assembly (1). 2. Secure with the four M3 x 6 screws (2) (maximum length M3 x 8). 3. Support the instrument and connect the cables and pipes. 4. Refer to the electrical connections below before fitting the instrument into the equipment rack.
  • Page 12 ISOLATE THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE REAR PANEL. Caution Use the power adaptor supplied with the instrument (GE part no. 191-370). Using other power adaptors may cause over-heating, this can result in a fire. 6.1 Connecting (Figure 7) 1.
  • Page 13 Figure 7 Communication Connectors Power supply adaptor RS232 IEEE488 USB B USB A Ethernet (option) 7.1 RS232 Interface When using the RS232 interface, a cable must be connected directly from the instrument to a suitable port on the computer in a ‘point to point’ link. The pin connections for the 9-pin D-type, RS232 connector and the relationship between the instrument and the RS232 control signals, together with device interconnection interface is shown in Table 2-1.
  • Page 14 Table 1 RS232 Connections 7.2 Handshaking connections Software handshaking use: TXD, RXD and GND. Hardware handshaking use: TXD, RXD, GND, CTS, RTS and DTR. 7.3 IEEE 488 Interface The interface complies with IEEE 488 standard. The IEEE 488 parallel interface connects a computer/controller to one or more PACE1000 instruments and other instruments.
  • Page 15 7.5 Multiple Unit Installation (Figure 8) To install multiple units use stacking plugs to link the first instrument and second instrument as follows:: 1. Connector to rear panel of first instrument (Ref Illustration). 2. Connector from controller/computer (Ref Illustration). 3. Connector to rear panel of second instrument (Ref Illustration).
