3.3 Zero/Span Calibration
Selecting the ZERO/SPAN position on the Condec Calibration Module (PN 60109) places the instrument into its
ZERO/SPAN calibration mode. The display is shown in Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2. Zero/Span calibration for Gage-Only Units
The unit needs to be calibrated to only one positive and one bi-directional range. All bi-directional ranges are
calibrated over 0 to +14 PSI and 0 to -14 PSI. All the positive ranges from 0 to 100 PSI. Starting with one of the
instrument’s ranges, perform the steps shown in Table 3-1. Perform the following for each step:
1. Adjust input pressure to the appropriate (either 0 or full-scale) value.
2. Perform the action indicated in Table 3-1 when pressure input readings are stable.
NOTE: A vacuum pump will be required to enable calibrating the -14 PSI of the bi-directional ranges.
