  • Enter the alarm acknowledgement in minute.

INFO: The acknowledgment duration must be between 0 and 60 min.

Set the autozero
Enter the interval between two auto zeros: thanks to the temperature compensation of the gain (from 0 to 50 °C / 14 à 122 °F) and to the autozero system, Class 320 transmitters guarantee excellent long-term stability, along with great measurement accuracy.
Autozero principle: the microprocessor drives a solenoid valve that compensates for any long-term drift of the sensitive element.
Compensation is made by regular automatic adjustment of the zero. True differential pressure measurement is then made regardless of the environmental conditions of the transmitter.

“I/O Configurations” menu is displayed.

  • Tap “Autozero”.
  • Tap “Autozero interval”.
  • Enter the autozero interval in minutes.

INFO: The autozero interval must be between 10 and 60 min.

The autozero is managed by a solenoid valve. The behavior of this solenoid valve is linked to the ambient temper-ature. An automatic monitoring of the internal of the temperature of the device ensures the correct operation of the solenoid valve.
When starting the device or when the solenoid valve is activated for the first time, the solenoid valve is automatically triggered for 30 seconds (160 seconds if the internal temperature if the device is lower than 0 °C/32 °F) if the internal temperature of the device is higher than 0 °C/32 °F.
During the first 20 minutes, the solenoid valve is automatically triggered to perform an autozero every 3 minutes. Between 20 minutes and 60 minutes, the solenoid valve is automatically triggered to perform an autozero every 10 minutes.
After the first hour of operation, the device will perform an autozero according to the user’s configuration.
If the internal temperature of the device falls below 1 °C/34 °F, the solenoid valve is automatically activated every 30 minutes. The autozero is not take into account during this operation.
