Bacharach also offers a convenient exchange program that allows the customer
to regularly send in old sensors and, as scheduled, receive calibrated
replacements. Contact Bacharach customer service for more details about the
exchange program.
6.4. Pressure Sensor Calibration
This procedure calibrates the pressure sensor to a known pressure value.
6.4.1. Material Required
•
Bellows
•
Manometer:
Range: ±8 in. of water column (±20 mb)
Accuracy: ±0.01 in. of water column (±0.025 mb)
6.4.2. Procedure
NOTE: The unit of measure for pressure is selected in the Pressure
Units Selection section on page 26
. In the following procedure, inwc
is selected, but note that any unit of measure can be used for
calibration purposes.
1. Assemble the pressure sensor calibration equipment as shown in
Figure 6-3, but DO NOT connect the analyzer to the calibration
equipment at this time.
2. If not already done, turn ON the analyzer and display the
CALIBRATION LIST screen (refer to Calibration on page 62).
3. Use the ▲▼ buttons to highlight Pressure, and then press ENT to
display the CALIBRATE PRESSURE screen.
NOTE: “Measured” is the pressure value currently being
detected by the pressure sensor, while “Applied” is a
known value of pressure that will be applied for calibration
purposes.
4. With both the –∆P and +∆P ports open to the atmosphere, observe that
the current Measured pressure reading should be 0 ±0.01 inwc. If
necessary, zero the pressure sensor (refer to Performing a Draft /
Pressure Measurement on page 47) and repeat Steps 2 thru 4.
5. Connect the hose from the manometer to the +∆P port and apply a
negative pressure to this port by adjusting the bellows for a manometer
reading of –4.00.
6. Use the ▲▼ and ◄► buttons to enter an applied value that exactly
equals the manometer reading.
