Differential Pressure Measurement Uncertainties without Tare
The total nVision Reference Calibrator measurement uncertainty in the ΔP mode configuration will need to consider the uncertainties of both pressure mod-
ules. We recommend the module uncertainties to be combined with the preferred square root of the sum of the squares (or “root sum squares”) method.
The following table lists the possible combinations of combining Pressure Modules (PM) with different accuracy statements. The uncertainties reported below
are without using the Tare feature which will greatly improve your measurement uncertainty.

Differential Pressure Measurement Uncertainties with Tare
The Tare function can improve measurement uncertainties on two modules with the same full scale pressure range installed into one nVision Reference
Recorder.
The following specifications apply to the measurement system with a logging interval of 1 reading/second or slower:
