Application Example
Confirmation of air line
source pressure
Human reading error is eliminated by
the ability to confirm line pressure on
the digital display.
It is also possible to check pulsation in
the source pressure using the peak/bottom display funcion.
Setting a regulator can be performed
more precisely than with a dial
gauge by viewing the digital display
while making the setting.
Furthermore, power lines are not
needed for this battery operated unit.

1. The compact manometer can be used for
measurement of air and non-corrosive gases.
Please note that the accuracy of measurement for other fluids
cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, the construction is not
explosion proof, and therefore, flammable gases should not
be used.
2. Be certain to stay within the rated pressure range.
Operation outside the pressure range will cause failure.
3. Do not intentionally swing around by the hand
strap.
If the strap breaks or comes loose, there is a danger of injury
or damage, etc.
4. When installing or removing One-touch fittings on
tubing, first confirm that the fluid to be measured is
at atmospheric pressure.
If tubing is disconnected while the fluid to be measured is in a
pressurized state, the tubing may jump causing a danger of
injury or damage. Also when connecting tubing, confirm that it
is securely attached.
5. Instruction manual
Read it carefully and understand the contents before using a
product. Also, keep the manual in a location where it can be
referred to at any time.
Handling
Warning
1. Keep condensate and foreign matter from getting
into the fluid to be measured.
If condensate or foreign matter is mixed in the fluid to be
measured, this may cause failure or air leakage.
If there is a possibility of these being contained in the fluid,
use the meter via a filter or mist separator.
2. Do not drop or strike the unit, etc.
Do not drop, strike or apply a large impact shock (980 m/s2),
as this may result in a failure.
3. Be certain to perform the zero clear function with
pressure released to the atmosphere.
When perfoming the zero clear function, this should be done
with piping ports in an atmospheric release condition. If
adjustment is performed at a pressure other than atmospheric
pressure, the correct value will not be displayed.
4. Tighten One-touch fittings in accordance with the
following.
One-touch fittings should first be tightened by hand, and then
further tightened approximately 1/6 of a turn using a tightening
tool. If screwed in too far, this may cause air leakage due to
breaking of threads or distortion of the gasket, etc. If not
screwed in far enough, this may cause a loose fitting or air
leakage, etc.
Caution
1. Absolutely never use in an atmosphere where
explosive gases are used.
The compact manometer does not have explosion proof
construction. If used in an atmosphere of explosive gases,
there is a possibility of causing an explosion, and therefore,
should absolutely not be used under these conditions.
Operating Environment
Warning
1. Do not use where there is splashing of water or oil,
etc.
The compact manometer is not a dusttight and dripproof type,
and should not be used where there is splashing water or oil,
etc., as this may result in a malfunction.
Caution
1. Perform maintenance and inspection on a regular
basis.
If there is an unintended misaction, misoperation, etc., or
calibration has not been performed, there is a possibility of an
incorrect value being displayed, making it impossible to
ensure safety.
2. Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
Maintenance and Other
Warning
1. Use manganese type AA dry batteries (R6) or
alkaline type AA dry batteries (LR6).
Do not use batteries other than the above, as this may cause
failiure.
2. Insert the plus (+) and minus (–) terminals of the
batteries in the proper direction as indicated inside
the unit.
If the batteties are inserted incorrectly, this may cause them to
leak or explode and result in damage to the unit.
3. Do not use old and new batteries or mix different
types of batteries together.
This may cause batteries to leak and result in damage to the
unit.
4. Remove the batteries when the unit will not be
used for a long period.
5. Do not use batteries if their voltage has dropped.
Continuing to use them may lead to the display of incorrect
values.
6. Do not touch the span calibration trimmer except
when performing span calibration.
Touching the trimmer may cause generation of an error in the
measured pressure. Also do not turn it too hard (0.3 N·m or
less) or press it too hard (5 N or less).
7. Use a soft cloth to wipe the blot off of the body.
In case of heavy soiling, wipe it off with a cloth soaked in a
neutral detergent diluted with water after wringing it out
thoroughly, and finish up by wiping with a dry cloth.
Caution
Precautions
Be sure to read before handling. Refer to pages 14-21-3 to 14-21-4 for Safety Instructions and Common
Precautions.

Turning on the Backlight
It normally lights up
while the button is being pressed. In the lock
mode, it lights up when
pressed and turns off
when pressed again.
However, the maximum lighting time is
approximately one minute.
Zero Clear
The zero point displayed at atmospheric
pressure can be automatically adjusted. By
this means it is possible to eliminate a display discrepancy at atmospheric pressure.
• Turn the power OFF.
• Release the supply
pressure to the atmosphere.
• When continuously
pressed for 6 seconds or more, zero
clear is performed
and “CAL” is displayed on the LCD.
Lock Mode (Auto power OFF cancel)
The auto power OFF
function is canceled by
activating the lock
mode (auto power OFF
cancel).
When continuously
pressed for 6 seconds
or more, “L” is displayed on the LCD.
Moreover, when the
power is turned OFF,
the lock mode is released.
Auto Power OFF Function
When the power is
turned ON and there is
no button operation for
more tham 5 minutes,
the power will turn
OFF.
Note) For cancelling
this function, refer to
the functions and operation of the lock mode
(below).

앬 Span calibration method
Do not touch the span calibration trimmer except when
performing span calibration.
1. Perform zero clear at atmospheric pressure.
2. Apply the maximum rated pressure, and calibrate the span while
comparing with a standard pressure gauge.
3. If the display value of the compact manometer is “0” after returning
to atmospheric pressure, then calibration is complete.
If the display value is not “0”, calibrate again by repeating steps 1
and 2.
앬 Replacing the batteries
When battery voltage becomes low the entire LCD will flash.
When the LCD flashes replace the batteries. Use 2 pcs. of type AA
dry batteries.
To replace the batteries, turn the power OFF and replace them
within approximately 30 seconds.
When not completed within 30 seconds, “Err” will be
displayed. In that case, perform zero clear once again.
In the event that the display runs out of control, remove the
batteries for one minute or longer, and then perform zero clear
again for inserting the batteries and turning on the power.
Switching between pressurization and atmospheric release can be easily performed by switching the control.
Pressure can be supplied or stopped by inserting or removing a tube.
