INTRODUCTION The External Reservoir kit is designed for use with the PPCH Hydraulic Pressure Controller. The external reservoir is provided for applications requiring more fluid than can be held in the 300 cm3 internal reservoir. The external reservoir is connected in series with the internal reservoir so that internal reservoir features are still available. Figure 1. Swage Vent Plug, 10-32 x 1/8 Return Tube INSTALLATION OF RESERVOIR Close valve: Close the reservoir FILL/DRAIN valve. Connect tubes: Connect a tube from the PPCH EXTERNAL RESERVOIR RETURN port, to the return port (1) on the external reservoir. Connect tubes: Connect a tube from the PPCH FILL/DRAIN port to the supply port (2) on the external reservoir. The stainless steel Swage fittings are used at the PPCH FILL/DRAIN port connection. Fill external reservoir: Fill the external reservoir through the 1/2 in. The MAX FILL label on the rear of the PPCH does not apply when using an external reservoir. Be sure the external reservoir is open to atmosphere so proper system venting and zeroing can occur. [. . . ] If there is an open point in the system below the fluid level in the reservoir, fluid will run out of the system at this open point. The top of the return tube defines the fluid head applied to the PPCH's Q-RPT when in a VENT condition. Enable reservoir return: Turn the PPCH RESERVOIR RETURN valve to the EXTERNAL position, and loosen the vent plug on top of the Reservoir ­ this is a 10-32 x 1/8 threaded plug.
