REFERENCE PRESSURE TRANSDUCER (RPT) SPECIFICATIONS
All values are ± FS of the active range unless otherwise indicated.
Warm Up Time: 30 minutes for best performance
Resolution: To 1 ppm, user settable by individual range
Temperature Effect: Fully compensated from 0 to 50 °C with active independent
temperature measurement
0.005 % maximum temperature effect in normal ambient
15 to 35° C operating range
Acceleration Effect:
±
0.008 %/g maximum, worst axis
Allows operation at
±
20° from reference plane without
significant effect

1 Measurement Precision: Combined linearity, hysteresis, repeatability of measurements made
by the reference pressure transducer.
2 Predicted Stability: Maximum change in zero and span over specified time period for typical
RPT used under typical conditions. As stability can only be predicted and varies from RPT to
RPT, stability for a specific RPT should be established from experience.
3 Measurement Uncertainty: Maximum deviation of the reference pressure transducer indication
from the true value of measured pressure including precision, stability, temperature effect and
calibration standard uncertainty of ± 0.005 % of reading.
The influence of the dynamic compensation for atmospheric pressure in gauge mode
measurement is less than ± 2.5 Pa (0.00035 psi).
