range of functions and high precision render it
suitable for a wide range of applications.
Configuration possibilities:
• Autom. cut-out, selectable time
• Selectable resolution and damping
• Selectable units of time
• Selectable units of measurement

adjust to the new ambient temperature.
3.2 Pneumatic connection
For measuring ranges up to 7000 mbar, 4/6
mm or NPT 1/8" connectors can be connected
depending on model. Higher ranges are
equipped with NPT 1/8".
Ensure correct connection of the pneumatic
hoses!
+P high pressure
S- low pressure (not available
with the absolute and relative
pressure version)
When screwing on a coupling it
is important to turn with a span-
ner in the opposite direction.
Never hold at case only!
