CALIBRATION Calibration 1. Full (HI-LOW) calibration requires a standard manometer calibrator and should be performed by a professional calibration laboratory. Contact Sper Scientific. 2. To perform a ZERO calibration, disconnect all tubes and do not apply pressure to the connectors. 3. Press F1 (MEAS) followed by F3 (Cali) - “Calibration” is displayed. 3. Press F4 (ZER0) and “Cali: 0.000 PSI” will be displayed. 4.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Measurement Modes The unit offers three (3) measurement modes: 1. F1 (MEAS) Single Measurement 2. F2 (MEM) Multiple Measurement 3. F3 (LOG) Auto Logging Single Measurement 1. Ensure the tubing is connected and not leaking or damaged. Welcome MEAS MEM LOG P: 0.1 psi EXIT REC Pressure Max: 1.2psi Min: -1.2psi Avg: 0.4psi Curr: 0.1psi EXIT SET 2. Press F1 (MEAS) to take a single pressure measurement. 3. Once a pressure is detected the reading is displayed. Cali 4.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Multiple Measurement Manually record up to 99 data points with time & date and your filename. Welcome MEAS MEM LOG 0. 1 P. P. 02 P. 0. 1 P. P. 02 P.

Press F2 (MEM) to enter Multiple Measurement mode. 2. Press F2 (MEAS) to take a measurement. 3. Once a pressure is detected the reading is displayed.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES 5. By default, the first reading will be stored in memory location 01: using the date & time as the filename. The pressure reading is displayed next to the P: (for example: 0.025 psi). 6. If desired, press F3 (EDIT) to edit the filename. Then, use the Keypad to edit the filename. Cycle through the characters by depressing the key until the desired character is highlighted. Once the filename has been defined, press F4 (ENTER). 7.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Clear Single Memory Record 1. Press F2 (MEM) to enter Multiple Measurement mode. 2. Use the ▲ or buttons to move to the desired memory location. 3. Press F4 (NEXT) then press F2 (CLR). Once F2 is pressed the “Clear ?” message is displayed. Press F2 (YES) again to clear the highlighted memory location or F3 (NO) to cancel the clear function. 4. Press F1 (EXIT) to return to the Welcome menu. Clear All Memory Records 1. Press F2 (MEM) to enter Multiple Measurement mode. 2.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Run Auto Logger 1. Press F3 (LOG) to enter log mode. Welcome MEAS MEM LOG SET 2. Press F3 (SET) to modify the user-defined parameters. 0023: 06-30 02:28:55 P: 0.1 psi 0024: P: 0025: P: 0023: 06-30. 02:28:55 P: 0.1 psi 0024: P: 0025: P: EXIT START SET NEXT Begin: Start: End: Suspend: Rate: Expect: Remain: P-PG N-PG 3. Use the ▲ and buttons to select an auto log parameter and press F2 (EDIT) to edit.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES 4. Press F4 (ENTER) after modifying a parameter. 5. Once the parameters have been set press F4 (NEXT) and F1 (START) to start the auto logger. The word “Logging…” will be displayed. The meter will automatically start and stop logging according to your chosen parameters. Once the required number of data points is reached, logging stops and the records are held in the data logger. 6.
MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES Clear Auto Log Data 1. Press F3 (LOG) to enter log mode. 2. Press F3 (SET) to enter auto log parameter set-up. 3. Press F4 (NEXT) to access the clear option. 4. Press F2 (CLR) for two (2) seconds and the “Clear All?” message is displayed. 5. Press F2 (YES) to clear all auto log data, or F3 (NO) to cancel clear function. 6. After clearing all auto log data, press F4 (BACK) to return to auto log parameter set-up. 7. Press F1 (EXIT) to return to the Welcome display.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT When the low battery icon is displayed, open the battery cover, install 4-AAA Alkaline batteries and replace the cover. Remove the batteries during prolonged periods of nonuse. 840086 SPECIFICATIONS Unit of Measure PSI inH2O kPa ftH2O inHg cmH2O mbar Bar mmHg oz / inch2 Kg / cm2 Max Pressure Range ±5 ±138 ±34.5 ±11.5 ±10.2 ±352 ±345 ±0.345 ±259 ±80 ±0.35 20 PSI Resolution 0.001 0.1 0.01 0.01 0.01 0.1 0.1 0.001 0.1 0.01 0.001 Accuracy Repeatability ± 0.3% fs @ 25 ºC ± 0.
