Pressure Connection

The pressure port is a G1/8. If a pipe is connected to this port a bonded
seal must be used. The instrument is very sensitive to air movement
(small local pressure changes), when the pressure port is directly
sensing the atmosphere, the fitting of a filter or restrictor is
recommended.

Installation

Installation must be carried out by a qualified technician.

2.1

Mounting the Instrument (Figure 2.1)

The instrument can be mounted on a vertical surface using two screws
or bolts to a maximum diameter of 4 mm.
