User Manual Heavy Duty Differential Pressure Manometer Model SDL730 Additional User Manual Translations available at www.extech.
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech SDL730 Pressure Manometer. This device measures gauge and differential pressure in the range of ±100 psi. Supported measurement units are mbar, psi, Kg/cm2, mm Hg, inch Hg, meters of H2O, inches of H2O, atmosphere, hPA, and kPA. Logged data readings are stored on an SD card for transfer to a PC. This meter is shipped fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service. Please visit our website (www.extech.
Getting Started Power ON‐OFF Power the meter by pressing and holding the power button Press and hold the power button for at least 1.5 seconds to power OFF the meter.

Setup Mode Basic settings at a glance To view the current configuration of the meter with regard to time, date, and datalogging sampling rate press the SET button momentarily. The meter will now display the configuration in quick succession. If the information is missed on the first try, simply press the SET button again until all of the information is noted. Accessing the Setup mode 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Press and hold the SET button for at least 1.5 seconds to access the Setup menu.

European and USA numerical formats differ. The data on the SD card can be formatted for either format. The meter defaults to USA mode where a decimal point is used to separate units from tenths, i.e. 20.00. The European format uses a comma, i.e. 20,00. To change this setting, refer to the Setup Mode section. Manual Datalogging In the manual mode the user presses the LOG button to manually log a reading onto the SD card. 1. Set the sampling rate to ‘0’ seconds as described in the Setup Mode section. 2.
SD Data Card to PC Data Transfer 1. 2. 3. 4. Complete a datalogging session as detailed above in the previous sections. Hint: For the first few tests, simply record a small amount of test data. This is to ensure that the datalogging process is well understood before committing to critical, large scale datalogging. With the meter switched OFF, remove the SD Card. Plug the SD Card directly into a PC SD card reader.
Hose Couplings This meter is supplied with a pair of hose couplings. They fit 4.0mm (0.157”) tubing. See diagram on how to connect these couplings to the hose and the meter. 9 SDL730-en-GB_V1.
Battery Replacement and Disposal When the low battery icon appears on the LCD, the batteries must be replaced. Several hours of accurate readings are still possible in this condition; however, batteries should be replaced as soon as possible: Remove the two (2) Phillips screws from the rear of the meter (directly above the top of the tilt stand).
