Appendix E: Effects of Resolution on
Accuracy Statement
The AXD530 MicroManometer has a resolution of .01 inches H
2
O
(1 Pa in metric units).
The accuracy statement reads ± (1% of indicated r
resolution). At very low differential pressures, therefore, the accuracy
approximates the resolution.
e.g. differential pressure of .01 inches H
2
O accuracy statement is ±
(.01 x .01 + .01) or ± .0101 inches H
2
O or reading error is ±
101% of reading.
