It is normally used to measure absolute pressure, e.g. for pressure compensation in velocity measurement in ducts, laboratories and production processes. Further measurement parameters are barometric (surface) pressure (= pressure at sea level) and altitude above sea level. Technical data Measurement data

Product description15 Using the product For measuring barometric (surface) pressure barom (= pressure at sea level), the following must be observed:

• the altitude of the measurement site above sea level must be known, and be set in the instrument, see chapter ‘First steps’, section ‘Basic settings (configuration mode)’.

• The barometric pressure displayed is only correct for the altitude set, for a change of altitude, the altitude above sea level must be reset. For measuring barometric Altitude (= altitude relating to a fixed level), the following must be observed:

• The altitude above sea level at the starting point of the measurement (= Reference altitude) must be known and be set in the instrument, see chapter ‘First steps’, section ‘Basic settings (configuration mode)’. When entering the reference altitude, the current absolute pressure is also stored as a reference pressure.

• When carrying out the measurement at the destination, the weather conditions must be the same as when entering the reference altitude. If the weather has changed (= change of absolute pressure), a new reference value must be entered. Switching the instrument on: > Press
