is no valve on the line to the cell, the line must be temporarily disconnected and stopped 

off. The valve to the liquid supply reservoir is opened and the plunger advanced 

somewhat to remove the backlash in the pump spindle nut. With the reservoir valve 

closed, the screw crank is slowly rotated until the Bourdon gage pointer is observed to 

move a perceptible amount. The quantity of motion of the screw is noted. The motion of 

the crank should be small — something like one-quarter turn or less. After reattaching the 

differential transducer to the system and pressurizing the opposite cavity to several 

hundred psi, the experiment with the screw pump is repeated. The difference in rotation 

of the screw crank in the two experiments represents the quantity of air remaining in the 

cell. In these experiments, the gage pointer must not be resting against a pin at zero 

pressure. It is obvious that pressurizing the opposite cavity will prevent the flexible 

diaphragm from spoiling the experiment. It is not difficult to keep the free air in the 

differential pressure transducer below 0.05 cc. 

Bleeding Lower Chamber in a Liquid-To-Liquid System 

When charging the small cavity beneath the diaphragm, a bias pressure is placed in the 

upper cavity to force the diaphragm against the lower cavity surface. After the plug 

beneath the cell is loosened, some liquid is forced into the lower fitting until the liquid 

appears around the plug threads. This method is adequate in most instances. A small 

bubble is trapped in the vertical section of the input port to the lower cavity; but after 

pressurizing the liquid for a period and repeating the process, the bubble is mostly 

displaced or dissolved. For more thorough displacement of the air, the cell should be 

inverted.
