3.3 GK-403 Readout Box (Obsolete Model)

The GK-403 can store gauge readings and apply calibration factors to convert readings to

engineering units. The following instructions explain taking gauge measurements using Mode

“B”. Consult the GK-403 Instruction Manual for additional information.

3.3.1 Connecting Sensors

Connecting Sensors with 10-pin Bulkhead Connectors Attached:

Align the grooves on the sensor connector (male), with the appropriate connector on the

readout (female connector labeled senor or load cell). Push the connector into place, and

then twist the outer ring of the male connector until it locks into place.

Connecting Sensors with Bare Leads:

Attach the GK-403-2 flying leads to the bare leads of a Geokon vibrating wire sensor by

connecting each of the clips on the leads to the matching colors of the sensor conductors,

with blue representing the shield (bare).

3.3.2 Operating the GK-403

1)

Turn the display selector to position “B”.

2)

Turn the unit on.

3)

The readout will display the vibrating wire output in digits. The last digit may change

one or two digits while reading.

The thermistor reading will be displayed above the gauge reading in degrees

centigrade.

4)

Press the “Store” button to record the value displayed.

If the no reading displays or the reading is unstable see Section 5 for troubleshooting

suggestions. The unit will automatically turn itself off after approximately two minutes to

conserve power.

3.4 Measuring Temperatures

All vibrating wire pressure cells are equipped with a thermistor which gives a varying resistance

output as the temperature changes. The white and green leads of the instrument cable are

normally connected to the internal thermistor. Readout boxes will read the thermistor and display

the temperature in degrees C. To read temperatures using an ohmmeter complete the following:

1.

Connect an ohmmeter to the green and white thermistor leads coming from the pressure

cell. (Since the resistance changes with temperature are large, the effect of cable

resistance is usually insignificant. For long cables a correction can be applied, equal to

approximately 14.7

Ω

for every 1000 ft (48.5

Ω

per km) at 20 °C. Multiply these factors

by two to account for both directions.)

2.

Look up the temperature for the measured resistance in Appendix B, Table 4.
