1. Safety instructions
•
To avoid permanent damage to the built-in
semiconductor sensor, never exceed the maxi-
mum threshold pressure of 400 kPa or 4 bars.
•
Suitable only for non-corrosive gases such as
air, helium and nitrogen.
•
Do not allow the sensor element to come into
contact with water.
2. Description
This absolute pressure sensor with an extensive
measurement range is particularly suitable for
measuring atmospheric pressure during meteoro-
logical observations and for any other experiments
dealing with atmospheric pressure. The barometer
can also be used as an altimeter in mountain
climbing.
Two-port measurement procedure for the pressure
sensor: nozzle 1 is connected to the external pres-
sure via a connecting nipple, and nozzle 2 is con-
nected to a sealed reference vacuum.
The sensor box is automatically recognised by the
interface.
