4.0. CALIBRATION

The 265 transducer is factory calibrated and should require no field adjust-

ment. Generally, the mounting position will have a zero shift effect on ranges

below 1” WC. Whenever possible, any zero and/or span offsets should be

corrected by software adjustment in the user’s control system. However, both

zero and span adjustments are accessible either on the front of the unit or by

removing the optional conduit enclosure. The 265 transducer is calibrated in

the vertical position at the factory.

4.1 Voltage Output Zero Adjustment

While monitoring the voltage between the positive output (OUT) and

common (COM), and with both pressure ports open to atmosphere, the zero

may be adjusted by turning the zero adjustment screw. (See Diagram 1 for

3.2 Current Output Units

The Model 265 is a two-wire loop-powered 4 to 20mA current output unit (see

Diagram 3). The current flows into + terminal and returns back to the power

supply through the - terminal (see Diagram 3). The power supply must be a DC

voltage source with a voltage range between 9 and 30 measured between

terminal + and - terminals. The unit is calibrated at the factory with a 24 VDC

loop supply voltage and a 250 ohm load.
