CS450/CS455 Pressure Transducer

For example, if the correct elevation of the water, as measured by a staff gauge
or other measurement device, is 2015.50 feet, and the CS450 provides a
reading of 5.76 psig, then:

5.76 psig * 2.31 ft/psig = 13.3056 ft.

So, the offset is calculated:

2015.50 ft – 13.3056 ft = 2002.1944 ft

This offset can be accounted for in the program instruction of the SDI-12
recorder.

5. Wiring

5.1 SDI-12

It is recommended to power down your system before wiring the
CS450/CS455. The shield wire plays an important role in noise emissions and
susceptibility as well as transient protection.
