    7.5.2.5 Calibration Adjustment Procedure There are three methods that can be used to calibrate all of the transducers in the CPC8000. A simple [1-Point Calibration] can be used to adjust a single point (usually the zero point). A [2-Point Calibration] extends this capability to adjust two points (usually points close to the Zero and Span).

    The [Linearize] application (see fgure 7.5.2.5.3a) provides a place to record [As Found] calibration data and to linearize each internal transducer in the CPC8000 using that data. An “as found calibration” can be performed by connecting a suitable pressure standard to the Measure/Control port, placing the instru- ment in [Measure] mode and supplying all 11 pressure points across the complete range of the trans- ducer being calibrated.

    9.4 Model 75 Pressure Booster System To control pressure, the CPC8000 requires a pressure supply of 10% above the full scale of the instru- ment. For ranges of 3000 psi or greater, this is above the typical gas bottle/cylinder. The Model 75 Pressure Booster System provides the ability to boost bottle pressure up to the supply pressure require- ments of all possible CPC8000 range confgurations while maximizing gas bottle/cylinder usage.
