How To Adjust the Zero
Chapter Four: Operation
44
To properly zero the 870/872 transducer:
1. Install the 870/872 transducer in a system and connect a power supply/readout.
2. Power the transducer and allow it to stabilize.
Note
Ensure that the transducer is
fully stabilized
before you adjust the zero.
3. Pump the unit down to a pressure one decade below its resolution (0.001% of FS).
For best results, pump the transducer while it is warming up. Refer to Table 14 for the
highest recommended pressure levels for proper zero adjustment.

4. Adjust the
ZERO
pot with a small flathead screwdriver until the readout displays zero
(0000).
The
ZERO
pot is located on the side of the transducer body (refer to Figure 1, page 25,
and Figure 3, page 27.
Note
In 4 to 20 mA units, the
ZERO
pot adjusts the 4 mA setting.
