The Precision Absolute Manometer is a microprocessor based
PRECISION ABSOLUTE MANOMETER
pressure sensing device used to directly measure pressure
relative to absolute zero. Model HHP360-A measures pressure
from 0 – 17.403 PSIA and model HHP360-B measures
pressure from 0 – 38.674 PSIA. Pressure can be displayed in a
variety of English and S.I. engineering units. All HHP360s
include a Tare function, a Min/Max function, selectable damp
rates and altitude displayed in feet or meters. The HHP360
can also display barometric pressure corrected to sea level.

Zeroing the Manometer
The HHP360 is a stable and precise instrument. However, on
occasion the handheld should have a new zero taken. This is done
to remove zero drift that can occur since it was last zeroed. The
HHP360 can be zeroed only if the new applied zero is within ± 1%
FS of the original factory calibration zero. This prevents accidental
zeroing at atmospheric pressure or other relatively high pressures.
If outside this limit a “ZERO RANGE ERROR” message appears
and the manometer will not zero.
The HHP360 provides three mechanisms for re-zeroing:
1. Referenced to Absolute Zero: This traditional and
preferred method takes a “snapshot” of the measured
pressure when a vacuum of less than 100 microns
Absolute is applied to the sensor.
2. Factory Zero: This method restores the calibration curve
to the original zero taken at the factory. Note that this
feature is intended for comparison purposes, and should
not be used for real pressure measurement, as any zero-
drift will not be compensated.
3. User-Adjusted Zero: This method allows the user to
enter any pressure value when a known reference is
applied (for example, the local barometer). The
manometer will compare its actual measured value with
the entered value, and calculate a new zero reference
based on the offset.

Pressure Corrected to Sea Level
Pressure reduction to Sea Level is required so that barometric
readings can be compared at different elevations. The correction to
sea level is done using a “hypsometric equation”. This equation
simulates a “fictitious column of air” which extends downward
from the instruments location to sea level. This fictitious column is
assumed to be similar to the actual air column over nearby lower
elevations. Some properties are related to observed conditions
while others must be assumed. Barometric pressures given by the
National Weather Service and used at airports are always corrected
to sea level.
To set the unit to display pressure corrected to sea level:
1. Determine the elevation
of the instrument above
sea level, in meters. 700
meters will be used as an
example.
2. From Measure Mode
press the PRGM key.

Damp Rate Select
Adjustable exponential type damping is available to steady the
display when measuring pulsating pressures. The HHP360 has a
range of damping rates; 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, or 25 seconds.
Damping is done by averaging new data from the pressure sensor
against previously collected data. The microprocessor collects data
from the sensor every 0.1 seconds. The display updates every 0.5
seconds, showing the current 0.1 second pressure reading. When
set at 25 seconds, the display updates every 0.5 seconds with the
average of the previous 25 seconds readings. Therefore, it takes up
to 25 seconds from the time pressure is applied until the
manometer displays the full scale applied pressure. Min/Max
display updates every 0.1 seconds.

Leak Test
The Leak Test feature allows the user to determine the leak rate in
the pneumatic system being monitored. Once configured, Leak
Test monitors the measured pressure over time and displays the
leak rate in the pressure units per minute at the conclusion of the
test. The maximum configurable leak test period is 1440 min (1
day). Pressing any key during the leak test will abort the test.

Re-Calibration
The HHP360 can be re-calibrated in the field for zero, span, and
linearity. The proper primary standards must be available prior to
calibrating the unit. These standards should meet the accuracy
requirements for your company or industry. The factory follows
guidelines established by ANSI / NCSL Z540-1-1994 which
requires that the primary standard be 4 times more accurate than
the unit under test.
The re-calibration is not intended to replace the Factory Lab
Calibration Procedure. It is intended to correct the curve fit if the
actual sensor characteristics change slightly over time.
For sensors up to 200 PSI, a ±0.0015% of reading deadweight
tester is recommended.
1-point (within upper 50% of Full Scale), 5-point (nominal values
of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% & 100% of Full Scale), and restore factory
default re-calibration options are offered. For the 5-Point recalibration, points 2, 3 and 4 can be adjusted within ±1% of
reading around the nominal values. Point #5 can be adjusted within
-1% of reading around nominal. Point #1 is fixed.
For example: for a 2000 inH2O sensor, Point # 2 (25%) can be
edited form 495 to 505 inH2O. Point #5 (100%) can be edited
from 1980 to 2000 inH2O.
The unit can only be re-calibrated if the calibration points are
within 5 times the accuracy of the original factory calibration (e.g.
@ 0.05% accuracy, the point limit is ±0.25% of Full Scale). If the
re-calibration procedure generates a new value outside this limit
the procedure will fail. In this case the unit would need to be
returned to the factory for service.
Once a re-calibration has been performed (either 1-point or 5point) the unit will continue to allow future re-calibrations only
with that type of re-calibration. In order to enable the other recalibration type, the user must first restore the re-calibration data to
the factory defaults.

Note the following WARNINGS and requirements:
• Substitution of components may impair operation
• Do not use or service in the presence of explosive atmospheres.
• Do not replace batteries in the presence of explosive
atmospheres.
• User must use a wrench on the pressure manifold when
installing user’s 1/8” NPT fitting. Do not tighten the fitting
without using a wrench on the pressure manifold. Failure to
use a wrench on the manifold will damage the plastic
enclosure and void warranty No torque should be applied to
the plastic enclosure while installing 1/8” NPT fittings.
Changing the Batteries
Make sure you follow the Specifications and Certification / Safety /
Warnings sections of this manual when changing batteries.
The manometer is powered by four, 1.5 volt AA size batteries.
When the output of the batteries under load drops, the display will
alternate between “LOW POWER DETECT” and “REPLACE
BATTERY”. Low power may affect performance. The unit should
not be used to measure pressure in this condition. All four batteries
should be replaced.
To replace the battery locate the battery compartment at the bottom
rear of the manometer, as shown here.
Remove the two screws on either side of the battery cover by
turning them counterclockwise until fully disengaged from the
manometer base. Lift the cover from the back of the unit.
33 of 36
Page 34
Remove the batteries by pulling the positive side first straight out
of the battery compartment. Note the positive (+) and negative (-)
battery polarity markings at the bottom of the compartment, as
shown here.
To install the four batteries: 1) Make sure polarity of battery
matches the markings in the compartment. 2) 1st place the (+) end
of the battery into the bottom of the battery slot. 3) Then push in
(-) end of the battery until it is seated in the bottom of the battery
slot. The battery compartment has stand offs molded into the side
of the compartment. When a battery is installed with the polarity
reversed, the stand offs prevent the negative battery terminal from
contacting the positive terminal in the battery compartment. The
unit will not power up when a battery is installed this way. Should
this happen, simply reverse the battery to align the polarity.
With the batteries secured in the battery compartment, replace the
compartment cover. The cover has only one correct alignment.
The “WARNING
statement on the battery cover must be visible and aligned in the
middle of the manometer case. To secure the cover, torque the
screws clockwise to 1.6-1.8 in-lbs. Do not over tighten.
DO NOT OPEN IN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE”
