Fluke 718EX 30 Intrinsically Safe Pressure Calibrator (2 bar)

The Fluke 718EX 30 Intrinsically Safe Pressure Calibrator is a specialized instrument designed for pressure measurement and calibration in hazardous environments where explosive atmospheres exist. This device combines pressure generation, measurement, and source functions in a single intrinsically safe package, making it essential for technicians and engineers working in oil and gas, chemical processing, and other industries requiring ATEX or CSA certified equipment. The calibrator delivers accurate pressure readings across multiple ranges while maintaining the safety certifications required for Zone 0 applications.

Fluke 718Ex 30 Key Features

The Fluke 718Ex 30 model offers a measurement range suitable for 2 bar applications with a resolution of 0.0001 bar and accuracy of 0.05% of full scale. Key functions include zero adjustment, minimum and maximum hold, damping control, and data hold. The built-in source pressure pump range extends from -820 mbar to full scale, allowing both measurement and generation functions. The device features an LCD display that shows pressure and 4-20mA current readings simultaneously, and supports multiple pressure units including psi, kPa, bar, and mbar. Intrinsic safety compliance includes ATEX II 1G Ex ia IIC T4 and CSA Certification for Class I Div 1 Groups A-D, T4.

Who Needs the Fluke 718EX 30?

Process technicians and field engineers working in hazardous areas will find the Fluke 718EX 30 indispensable for maintaining and calibrating pressure instrumentation. The intrinsically safe design ensures that the device can be used in Zone 0 environments without igniting explosive atmospheres, making it compliant with ATEX and CSA safety standards. Maintenance teams in oil refineries, chemical plants, and pharmaceutical facilities rely on this calibrator for accurate pressure measurement during routine equipment checks and emergency repairs.

Instrumentation engineers specifying equipment for hazardous area projects will appreciate the Fluke 718EX 30’s combination of precision and safety certifications. The device’s ability to measure and source pressure, combined with its 4-20mA current measurement capability, makes it versatile for commissioning new systems and troubleshooting existing installations. Buyers responsible for procurement in regulated industries will value the three-year warranty and the comprehensive certification package that reduces compliance documentation overhead.

Field service teams benefit from the calibrator’s rugged construction, including a shock-absorbing holster and 1-meter drop test rating, which protects the instrument during daily field use. The long battery life of 4 to 20 hours, depending on functions used, ensures the device remains operational throughout extended calibration sessions without requiring frequent battery changes.

Fluke 718EX 30 Applications

In oil and gas facilities, the Fluke 718EX 30 is used for calibrating pressure transmitters and switches in refineries, wellheads, and pipeline monitoring systems. The intrinsically safe certification allows technicians to connect the device to process piping in explosive atmospheres without additional safety precautions or purging requirements. Chemical processing plants use the calibrator for verifying pressure readings on reactors, distillation columns, and storage tank systems where accurate pressure control is critical to process safety and product quality.

Power generation facilities rely on the Fluke 718EX 30 for boiler pressure monitoring and steam system calibration. The device’s ability to measure both pressure and 4-20mA signals makes it valuable for verifying the calibration of control systems and valve positioners. Pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities require the intrinsic safety certification for clean room and pressure vessel maintenance, where any spark or heat source must be eliminated to prevent product contamination or safety incidents.
