Table 3 lists the values to be used during calibration.
Refer to the table when performing the following:
1. Check unit zero setting. Monitor reading of
pressure gauge #2 (output), and turn zero adjust
screw counterclockwise to lower output, clock-
wise to raise output. Set zero adjust screw so
that pressure output is at 0% of appropriate
range (±3%) when 0% input is applied.
2. Check unit span setting. Increase input to 100%
of rated span; 20 mA for 4-20 mA units, or 50 mA
for 10-50 mA units.
3. Monitor reading of pressure gauge #2 (output),
and adjust span pot so that reading is at 100% of
appropriate pressure range for your unit.
Check the values listed in Table 3.
8. Set span pot to approximate mid-scale (22 turns
in either direction, then approximately 11 turns in
the opposite direction).
9. Set zero adjustment screw fully clockwise, then
five turns counterclockwise.
10. Allow approximately 5 minutes for calibration
setup to stabilize.
Calibration Procedure
To perform the recommended bench check for the
IPF, first perform the setup as described in the
preceding section. The calibration procedure con-
sists of a basic check and adjustment of unit zero
and span, based on the reading of pressure gauge
#2 (accuracy of ±0.1%).
