Care and Maintenance
STORAGE:
Pocket Gauge: After measurement, fully exhaust cuff then wrap cuff around gauge and
bulb and store in zippered carrying case.
NOTE: This product will maintain the safety and performance characteristics
specified at temperatures ranging from 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C) at a relative
humidity level of 15% to 85%.
Manometer: Your pocket aneroid gauge requires minimal care and maintenance.
The manometer may be cleaned with a soft cloth but should not be dismantled under any cir-
cumstances.
Gauge accuracy can be checked visually; simply be certain
the needle rests within the printed oval when the unit is fully
deflated (Figure 3).
Should the indicator needle of the manometer rest outside of
this calibration mark, then the manometer must be re-cali-
brated to within ±3 mmHg when compared to a reference
device that has been certified to national or international
measurement standards. A manometer whose indicator needle is resting outside of this
mark, is NOT acceptable for use.
In the event that the gauge is ever in need of calibration, simply return for service. Damaged
or broken parts will be replaced as needed at a minimal charge. Refer to the warranty for spe-
cific details of warranty coverage.
The manufacturer recommends a calibration check every 2 years.
