Product Identication
BAPI’s “Touch” Pressure Sensor is an accurate, rugged and economical solution for measuring and reporting duct/
building static pressure, room-to-room
differential pressure or air velocities/
volumes. The heart of the unit is a
micro-machined silicon pressure
sensor with excellent accuracy,
repeatability and stability.
The touch interface allows for quick
and easy menu driven set up of all
parameters including auto zero,
pressure ranges, output ranges, W.C.
or Pascal operation, and display
format of pressure, percent output or
“On”. You can also use the interface to
create custom ranges by adjusting the
upper and lower pressure endpoints.

Installation and Operation Instructions

Mounting
Attach the unit to its mounting
surface with four #10 screws
through the holes in the
mounting feet. The preferred
mounting orientation is with the
pressure ports facing down.
Note: Remove Blue Dust Shields
from pressure ports before
use. Push tubing onto the port
nipple. Avoid kinks and holes in
the tubing or accuracy will be
affected.
Note: BAPI recommends using
#10 screws that require 5/32”
pilot holes
Note: Do not mount to a vibrating
Surface

Current Loop Connection
The ZPT unit requires DC voltage for 4 to 20 mA
current loop output, which is “two-wire” operation.

NOTE: The connectors use a rising block screw terminal to hold the wires. It is possible for the block to be in a
partially up position allowing the wire to be inserted under the block. Be sure that the connector screws are turned
fully counterclockwise before inserting the wire. Lightly tug on each wire after tightening to verify proper termination.
