1. Remove gage from case. Set up in a vertical position using (a) the

gage stand and leveling screw on a horizontal surface or (b)

Magneclips, on a vertical steel surface.

2. Turn connectors counter-clockwise 1/2 to 3/4 turns, thus venting gage

to atmosphere.

3. Center bubble between cross hairs on spirit level with leveling screw or

by shifting gage position.

4. Slide scale to zero mark lies directly behind fluid meniscus, as shown

below.

Align fluid meniscus and the reflected image to eliminate parallax error.

5. Add or remove fluid as necessary.

6. Use left hand gage connection for plus (above atmospheric) pressures.

Connect to right side for minus (below atmospheric) pressures.

Connect to both sides for differential pressures, as with a Pitot tube.

CAUTION:

Use only Dwyer gage fluid. Clean with mild soap and water only. Other

fluids, solvents or cleaning agents may damage the gage.

AIR VELOCITY

The total pressure of an air stream flowing in a duct is the sum of the static

or bursting pressure exerted upon the sidewalls of the duct and the impact

or velocity pressure of the moving air. Through the use of a Pitot tube

connected differentially to a manometer, the velocity pressure alone is

indicated and the corresponding air velocity determined.
