CALIBRATION

The zero adjustment for the transducer can be

accessed by unscrewing the four cover screws

and removing the zero pot access cover (see

Fig. 1). Once the cover is removed, make sure

no contaminants, (e.g. water, oil, chemicals,

grease, dirt, etc.), enter the enclosure. The

zero adjustment range is approximately ±10%

of span.

⁄

˝ NPT

The offset or zero adjustment potentiometer is

shown in Figure 1. A hole is provided in the

fiber insulation board to access the pot adjust-

ment screw. Before you adjust, make sure a

short tube is connected from the "low" port to

the "high" port of the transducer. This connec-

tion will ensure that both ports are at the same

pressure. A clockwise rotation raises the output.

DO NOT ADJUST THE SPAN

ADJUSTMENT POTENTIOMETER

Proper span calibration requires a pressure

standard three to five times more accurate

than the accuracy of the transducer.

When the cover is reinstalled, make sure the

gasket is seated properly and all four screws

are properly engaged and tightened.

SERVICE

There are no user serviceable parts inside the

transducer. Servicing should only be carried

out by factory-trained personnel. Service prob-

lems encountered in the field might be

mechanical or electrical in nature.

Mechanical problems might be attributed to

plugged or leaking pressure lines, or faulty

pressure sources.

Electrical problems might be attributed to

improper wiring, bad connections (e.g. open,

shorts, etc.), malfunctioning or improper power

supply.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

Variable Damping

A third potentiometer, placed to the left of

the zero potentiometer, allows the user to

adjust the unit's response time.

Multiple Range

By relocating the shunt jumper, the user can

"re-range" the unit. The unit can be re-

ranged by a

unidirectional 5 in. W.C. unit can become a

2.5 in. W.C., 1.67 in. W.C., 1.25 in. W.C. or a

1.0 in. W.C. range.
