Zero point adjustment
All measuring devices are calibrated with state-of-the-art technology. The zero point obtained in
this way is printed on the nameplate.
Calibration takes place under reference operating conditions
Consequently, the zero point adjustment is generally
not
necessary!
Experience shows that the zero point adjustment is advisable only in special cases:
• To achieve highest measuring accuracy at very low flow rates
• Under extreme process or operating conditions (e.g. very high process temperatures or very high-
viscosity fluids.
Preconditions for a zero point adjustment
Note the following before you perform a zero point adjustment:
• A zero point adjustment can be performed only with fluids with no gas or solid contents.
• A Zero point adjustment is performed with the measuring tubes completely filled and at zero flow
(v = 0 m/s). This can be achieved, for example, with shutoff valves upstream and/or downstream
of the sensor or by using existing valves and gates.
– Normal operation
valves 1 and 2 open
– Zero point adjustment
with
pump pressure
Valve 1 open / valve 2 closed
– Zero point adjustment
without
pump pressure
Valve 1 closed / valve 2 open

Caution!
• If the fluid is very difficult to measure (e.g. containing entrained solids or gas) it may prove
impossible to obtain a stable zero point despite repeated zero point adjustments. In instances of
this nature, please contact your Hauser service center.
• You can view the currently valid zero point value using the ZERO POINT function (see the
"Description of Device Functions" manual).
