CHAPTER 1: GENERAL
1. INTENDED USE
A. The Barfield 2311FA (P/N 101-00212) Pressure Tester, equipped with a suitable
Pressure Gauge (not included), field-tests aircraft pressure systems for both
reciprocating engines, turbine engines, and airframe pressure systems.
B. The tester provides pressure for driving all types of pressure transmitters, warning
switches, pressure type torque (BMEP) indicators, and for system leak testing in the
0-600 psi range. The Tester is proof tested to 1200 psi.
2. DESCRIPTION
A. As depicted in Figure 4, the 2311FA consists of a cylinder equipped with a manually
operated Piston for obtaining the desired outlet pressure. A fluid reservoir (located on
top of the cylinder) is connected through a control valve to the inside of the cylinder. A
1/8 NPT female outlet port is provided at the control valve for attachment to the unit or
system to be tested.
B. The Tester is portable, rugged, and accurate with a wide range capability. It is simple to
operate, self-contained, and is line and shop proven.
