Pressure Gauges

Set Tare
Use to set a constant offset value to subtract from a pressure measurement.
Note
If you record a Tare value, the pressure value that shows on the display is not the actual pressure
applied to the gauge.
For example, if a tare is set at 30 psi and the measured pressure is 37 psi, 7 psi shows on the display. If
a tare is set at 30 psi and the measured pressure is 27 psi, -3 psi shows on the display.
The tare value is based on the pressure units and resolution selected. The tare value can be set to the
maximum range of the gauge.
For safety, the bar graph always shows the actual pressure based on the full range of the gauge
regardless of the tare position. Even when the pressure value shows “0”, the bar graph shows the actual
applied pressure.
Supervisory Mode
If needed, use Supervisory mode to lock/unlock functions to enable/disable changes to the functions. If
FUnC LOCK shows on the display, at least one function is locked. The password for Supervisory mode
is “101”. The password is set at the factory and cannot be changed.
To open Supervisory mode:
1. Push

Set Custom Unit/Scale
Use to set a factor to multiply a pressure measurement by to make a custom unit/scale.
Example: 40 psi is the equivalent of 1000 lbs of product in a tank. To show the product weight with a
100 psi gauge, set the factor to 25. 40 psi pressure shows as 1000 (40 x 25) on the display. The units
show as
CUST .
