Specifications

¹ Predicted Q-RPT measurement stability limit (k=2) over one year assuming regular use of AutoZero function. AutoZero occurs    automatically in gauge mode whenever vented, by comparison with barometric reference in absolute mode. Absolute mode    predicted one year stability without AutoZ is ± (0.005 % Q-RPT span + 0.005 % of reading).
² Combined linearity, hysteresis, repeatability. Add + 1 Pa (0.00015 psi) in gauge mode with an Axxx (absolute) Q-RPT for the    resolution and short term stability of the on-board barometer.
³ Maximum deviation of the Q-RPT indication from the true value of applied pressure including precision, predicted one year    stability limit, temperature effect and calibration uncertainty, combined and expanded (k=2) following the ISO “Guide to the    Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement.
⁴ % of AutoRanged span, but with AutoRanged span no lower than 30 % of Q-RPT span (10 % with BG15K and G15K).
⁵ ±0.008 % of reading from 30 % to 100 % of Q-RPT span. Below 30 %; ±0.0024 % of Q-RPT span.
⁶ ±0.01 % of reading from 30 % to 100 % of Q-RPT span. Below 30 %; ±0.0030 % of Q-RPT span.
⁷ ±0.005 % of reading from 30 % to 100 % of any AutoRanged span between 30 % and 100 % of maximum Q-RPT span. Below 30 %;    ±0.0015 % of AutoRanged span, or 0.0005 % of Q-RPT span, whichever is greater.
⁸ ±0.008 % of reading from 30 % to 100 % of any AutoRanged span between 30 % and 100 % of maximum Q-RPT span. Below 30 %;    ±0.0024 % of AutoRanged span, or 0.0007 % of Q-RPT span, whichever is greater.
