OMEGA® offers 24 standard
external pressure modules for
use with PCL340, PCL1000,
and PCL1200 Series calibrators.
These modules cover gage,
vacuum, absolute, compound,
and differential measurements.
Pressure ranges can be
displayed in any of 13 user­selectable units. Water density
correction factors of 4°C, 20°C,
or 60°F can be selected for
either water column unit. Note
that a pressure unit’s resolution
limitations will determine whether
it’s the right choice for a particular
application.

Ordering Example: PCL-PMA, pressure module adaptor (one required to interface with calibrators), PCL-PM015C, -15 to +15 psi compound

range pressure module.
Notes: 1. Accuracy is percent of full scale range, over the 15 to 35°C temperature range. Includes the pressure/temperature hysteresis in

psi. The accuracy statement shown in the specification table is the base accuracy from 15 to 35°C. Outside this temperature range, add an
additional ±0.0015% of FS per °C. To calculate the allowed deviation of a particular pressure module, use the following formula:

Deviation = ±%FS, ±T/P H, ±tempco where ±T/P H = thermal/pressure hysteresis in psi where applicable, and ±tempco = ±0.0015% FS/°C
when the temperature is outside the 15 to 35°C range.

2. Gage, vacuum and compound type range measurements are relative to atmospheric pressure. The absolute type is a measurement made
relative to absolute zero (perfect vacuum). The differential type is a measurement made relative to the pressure applied to the
low-pressure port of the module.

3. Units for display: pounds per square inch (psi), millibars (mbar), kilopounds per square centimeter (kp/cm2, also kg/cm2), atmospheres
physical (atmos), kilopascals (kPa), megapascals (MPa), inches of mercury @ 0 °C (inHg), millimeters of mercury @ 0 °C (mmHg), inches of
water column (inWc), centimeters of water column (cmWc) or one user-defined pressure unit.

4. These extended ranges are de-rated because the calibrated range of the module does not match the range of the sensor.

5. The maximum static pressure is 200 psig (14 bar).

6. Relative to the calibration standard.

7. Thermal and pressure hysteresis = 0.0025 psi (0.1724 mbar).

8. Thermal and pressure hysteresis = 0.0030 psi (0.2068 mbar); all other ranges = no hysteresis.

9. 0 to 7.2 psi, 0 to 150 psi and 0 to 1500 psi are extended ranges.

10. Gage, absolute and compound types are isolated and accept any media compatible with 316 SS. Vacuum and differential types are

compatible with pressure media that are clean, dry, non-corrosive air or gas.
