10-14 Calibration procedures K0460 - [EN] English
10.14 Procedures:
Pressure indicator
modules (PM
620-IS)
1. Assemble the pressure indicator with the necessary
PM 620-IS modules and connect the instrument to the
pressure standard; see Section 4.4.4 (Example procedure:
Measure pressure).
2. Let the equipment get to a stable temperature (minimum:
60 minutes since the last power on).
3. Use the calibration menu (Section 10.3) to do a two-point
calibration (Zero and +FS) or a three-point calibration (-FS,
Zero and +FS). Refer to Table 10-13.
4. To make sure the calibration is correct, select the applicable
pressure function; see Section 4.4.4, and apply these
pressure values:
• Ranges g: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 (%FS)
Then: Go back to 0 in the same steps.
Then (three-point calibration only):
-20, -40, -60, -80, -100 (%FS)
Then: Go back to 0 in the same steps.
• Ranges a: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 (%FS)
Then: Go back to 0 in the same steps.

the specified FS for the unit.
