WARNING

Gauges ordered with the external power option will not come with

batteries installed. Batteries MUST NOT be installed when

operating on external power. External power option gauges are not

approved for hazardous location use.

Battery life
Battery life is about 1500 hours (60 days) of continuous use with the

backlight off. With intermittent use, batteries could last a year or more.

There is a low battery icon in the upper left of the display. It will appear

when battery level is low. Replace batteries per recommendations

found in the specifications section of this manual.
RS-232 Interface
An RS-232 interface is standard on the CONDEC DPDG. Serial

communication can be used for configuration, calibration, and to

transfer measurement data from the gauge. For detailed specifications

on the interface and software communication, contact the factory at

(888) 295-8475 and request a copy of our interface manual.

WARNING

The RS-232 interface must not be used in hazardous areas.

CLEANING

To clean the Condec use a cloth with a mild cleaning solution.

Specifications

All specifications cover the temperature range from 0°C to +50°C, unless otherwise
noted.

Available Input Ranges
See page 11 for a table of available ranges in PSI plus equivalent

ranges and resolution for all engineering units

Accuracy
Positive Pressure: ±0.05% FS
Vacuum: ±0.25% FS (500 PSI gauge ranges and below)

0.1% FS for 15/30 PSI compound/vacuum versions

For gauges with full scale ranges equal to, or less than 30 psi (2 BAR),

vacuum operation is limited to -5psi (-350 mBAR). The exception is the

30 PSI compound/vacuum model which will operate to –14.7 PSI.
