How the Pressure Intensifier Works How the Pressure Intensifier Works The 286.31’s Pressure Intensifier develops the 10,000 psi (69 MPa) pressures applied to your specimen. The pressure transformer is the part of the Intensifier that develops this pressure. The pressure transformer’s principle: low pressure applied to a large area produces a large force. Apply this force over a smaller area and you will produce a higher pressure.
How the Pressure Intensifier Works The Area Ratio The area ratio is the ratio of the input pressure to the output pressure. It determines how much the input pressure boosts the output pressure. It is A area ratio = -----1A2 The identification label on your 286.31 gives its area ratio. For example, your label says the area ratio is 3.33:1. This means a 3000 psi input pressure will produce a 10,000 psi output pressure. 286.
How the Pressure Intensifier Works 12 Introduction 286.
Operation Operation of the 286.31 Intensifier consists of — • Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines • Running a Steady State Flow Test • Running a Transient Permeability Flow Test Note Complete purging needs only to be done when — • You first install the 286.31. • You accidentally draw air into the Pressure Intensifier Special equipment needed — • distilled water — at least 2 gallons (8 litres) • 1% Triton® wetting solution • Teflon® thread sealing tape The 286.
The following warning, caution, and note apply during all steps. WARNING You will be working with very high pressures — The spray from a leak could cut your skin. The 286.31 develops intensely high pressures (10000 psi/69 MPa). Broken lines or fittings could produce a skin cutting spray. Stop if you can’t build up to test pressure. You may have a leak somewhere. Reduce pressure to zero, then find and repair the leak.
Operating the Control Panel Valves Operating the Control Panel Valves Most of the steps in this section involve opening and closing valves on the 286.31’s control panel. The pictures that follow in this section will show you which valves to open and close. The figure below is the key to these pictures. A full turn opens a valve completely but still lets you shut it quickly. It takes only light force to shut the valve completely, though using more force won’t hurt it. 286.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines In this section you’ll purge the 286.31’s lines of air and fill them with distilled water. You only need to do this after installing the 286.31 or if you’ve accidentally drawn air into the Pressure Intensifier through a dry Fluid Reservoir. Note Before you start purging and filling, make sure your Triaxial Cell is open.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines Fill the Fluid Reservoir CAUTION An open Transducer Pressure Balance valve protects the differential pressure transducer from damaging high system pressures — Keep this valve open except when told to close it. 1. Protect the differential pressure transducer. Turn the Transducer Pressure Balance valve to the Open position. 286.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 2. If there is a specimen installed in the triaxial cell, remove it. Lines cannot be purged and filled with a specimen in place. You will find instructions for removing the specimen in your Triaxial Cell manual. 3. Prepare to fill the Fluid Reservoir. Turn the Pore Fluid Output, Pore Fluid Input, Permeability Output, and Permeability Input valves to the Close position. 18 Operation 286.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 4. Fill the Fluid Reservoir. If your 286.31 is connected to a distilled water supply — Turn the Reservoir Fill/Drain valve to the Open position. When the Fluid Reservoir is about 3/4 full, turn the Reservoir Fill/ Drain valve to the Close position. If your 286.31 is not connected to a distilled water supply — Remove the filler plug at the top of the 286.31’s cabinet. Open the console’s rear door. Unscrew one of the hex–head plugs in the Reservoir.

Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 3. Extend the Pressure Intensifier’s piston to pressurize the fluid. On the RSC, slowly turn the Manual Control to develop a slight positive pressure. While purging, keep the pressure as low as practical but positive all the time. Keep watching the pore pressure as you purge the lines. If pressure starts dropping and extending the piston does not raise the pressure, you will have to stop and refill the Pressure Intensifier.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines Purge and Fill the Lower Pore Line 1. Purge the lower pore pressure line of air and fill it with fluid. Turn the Pore Fluid Input valve to the Open position. Fluid and bubbles will come out of the triaxial cell's lower pore pressure port. As soon as the bubbles stop, go on to step 2. 24 Operation 286.

Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 2. Purge the low pressure Fluid Reservoir line of air and fill it with fluid. If your triaxial cell doesn’t have a shut off valve for the upper pore pressure line, plug this line at its triaxial cell output. Cap it or plug it with your finger (or a helper’s). Turn the Permeability Output valve to the Open position. As soon as the fluid entering the Fluid Reservoir becomes bubble-free, go on to step 3. 36 Operation 286.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 3. Stop the flow to the Fluid Reservoir. Turn the Permeability Output valve to the Close position. 4. Uncap the Triaxial Cell’s upper pore pressure line if you have plugged it. 286.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines Purge and Fill the Reservoir Return Line 1. Prepare to purge the Reservoir Return line of air and fill it with fluid.

On the RSC, slowly turn the Manual Control to extend the Intensifier’s piston. Stop when bubble-free fluid begins flowing back into the Reservoir.
Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines 7. Prepare to pressurize the 286.31's lines. Turn the Intensifier Fill valve to the Close position. 8. On the RSC, slowly turn the Manual Control to produce a positive pressure. 286.

Maintenance Prevent bacteria from growing in the pore fluid. Do this by adding a bactericide to the fluid and by changing the pore fluid frequently. Pore fluid lines can be flushed with a mild detergent solution. Use the steps in “Purging and Filling the Fluid Lines” on page 16 to flush the lines. Follow the detergent flush with a thorough fresh water flush. Check the accumulators’ precharge pressures at least once a month. Your Series 111 Accumulator manual has details on accumulator maintenance. 286.
