Series DPG-100 Digital Pressure Gage
(3) MOUNTING HOLES FOR #6 FLAT HEAD SCREW
Specications - Installation and Operating Instructions
The SERIES DPG-100 Digital Pressure Gage has a precise ±0.25% full scale
accuracy. The 4 digit digital display will reduce the potential for errors in readings by
eliminating parallax error commonly produced with analog gages.
The DPG-100 is packaged in a durable extruded aluminum case designed to meet
NEMA 4/4X. The unit is battery powered and has an auto-shut off to conserve
battery life. A four button key pad allows easy access to features without the need
to work through complex menus or difcult key combinations. These features include
backlight, peak and valley, auto zero and conversion of the pressure units. Readings
may be converted to various engineering units. See reverse page for available units.
DPG Quick Start Button Operation
For complete detailed instructions on the four button operation see the Operation
Chart provided on back.
On/Backlight: Push to turn on; Press again for backlight. Press and hold
for 5 seconds to turn unit off.
Zero: Zeros the display - Press the ZERO button until dashes “---”
are seen on the LCD, then release the button. If after pressing zero the
display does not re-zero, the unit is no longer meeting specied accuracy
and should be sent back to the factory for calibration. Do not use the zero
button when pressure is applied.
Units: Scroll (see next page for Model/Range Chart).
P/V: Peak recorded reading retrieved by initial push of button; push again
retrieves the valley or lowest value recorded.
INSTALLATION
When installing gage always use 1˝ hex at the base of the housing to tighten the gage
to a mating tting. Do not apply wrench to housing.
MAINTENANCE
A “LOW BAT” descriptor indication will appear on the display when batteries need to
be replaced.
Battery Replacement: Remove the three screws on backplate. Lift backplate off by
hand. Replace batteries per polarity indicators. To reassemble, ensure O-ring seats
into housing evenly and press until seated completely. Replace screws.
WARNING
with new batteries. Use 1.5 volt AAA alkaline batteries Duracell
Substitution of components may impair intrinsic safety. Batteries
must be changed in a non-hazardous location only. DO NOT mix
batteries from different manufacturers. DO NOT mix old batteries

WARNING: DO NOT pressurize DPG over maximum allowable pressure limits.
Extreme damage can occur if limits are exceeded (see Pressure Limit under
Specications). An overow “OFL” designator will ash to acknowledge that the gage’s
pressure range has been exceeded.
PANEL MOUNT OPTION
Drill a 3-1/4˝ (82.55) diameter hole in a panel, locate three mounting holes for a #6
screw 120° apart on a 3-58˝ (92.08) bolt circle.

WARNING
WARNING
Enclosure parts are constructed of plastic. When cleaning the
exterior surfaces use a damp cloth to avoid electrostatic sparking.
Enclosure parts are constructed of aluminum. Enclosure must be
protected from mechanical friction and impact with iron/steel to
prevent ignition capable sparks.
