1.3 Test Specifications
The following are the test specification for the Welch Allyn
Tycos Aneroid Gauge:
1. The gauge will be accurate to within +/- 3 mmHg* at the
following test pressures:
a) 0 mmHg (pointer inside the oval/rectangle)
b) 60 mmHg
c) 150 mmHg
d) 200 mmHg
e) 300 mmHg
* This accuracy is based on the use of a calibrated digital pressure
meter. If using a calibrated aneroid or mercury column for measuring
the accuracy of the aneroid in question the resulting accuracy is +/- 6
mmHg.
