It is recommended to use a precise level to get a better precision The precise 

level must be placed above the manometer.

For proper measurements, the bubble of the 

spirit level must be between the two lines.

OK

Out of tolerance

•  Unscrew the pressure connection situated above the receiver and pour the 

manometer fluid up to the zero point of the graduation. 

If your manometer has 

safety connections

, remove the 

two measure connections

 

of the manometer and slowly pour the manometer fluid up to the zero point of the 

graduation.

•  Screw the pressure connection (solid but moderated tightening). It is not necessary to 

strongly tight because the connection has a o'ring seal.

•  With a squeeze bulb, a pump or a pressure generator, send up the fluid up to the full 

scale of the ruler (this has the effect to wet the liquid column).

•  Wait 2 to 3 minutes until the stabilization of the fluid.

2  Set the liquid column manometer

After pouring the fluid up to the zero pint of the graduation (as described on step 1), it is 

necessary to perform the adjustment. For that, unscrew slightly the two knurled screws and 

move to the right or left the ruler to have the setting described below below (the meniscus 

must be placed on the zero) :

to read in the meniscus deep.
