Gauge, Compound and Absolute type pressure sensors are
supported. Pressure can be displayed in user-selected engineering
units. Differential units also have a square root flow unit selection.
Data Logging and Leak Test functions are standard.
M2 Series models are available for general purpose use or with
optional Intrinsically Safe certification to the specification shown
below (all models except M200LS).
Optional ATEX rating (not available on M200LS models):

    Appendix 2: M200-DI Application Notes Zeroing for Position Sensitivity M200-DI (wet/wet) units have liquid filled, sealed sensor assemblies. The fill fluid will apply hydrostatic head pressure to the DP sensor in uniform ways depending on the orientation of the handheld during measurement sessions. Horizontal plane (yaw axis): No zero offset Vertical plane (pitch axis): No zero offset Roll axis: Zero offset occurs.

    Appendix 3: M200LS Lab Standard Smart Manometer The M200LS models provide greater accuracy than the standard M200 for users in controlled or temperate climates. Typical accuracy is ± 0.01% FS over the temperature range of 59º F to 86º F (15º C to 30º C). Accuracy is not certified outside this reduced temperature range.
