CS451/CS456 Submersible 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 CS451 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.

7.3 Wiring

Power down your system before wiring the CS451/CS456. The

shield wire plays an important role in noise emissions and

susceptibility as well as transient protection.
