    Chapter 3 Operation Overview The Model 8704 DP-C measures differential pressure, calculates velocity, and calculates volumetric flow rate. It has data storage capability and can store individual readings and calculate statistics. Keypad Functions When pressing the keys on the front panel, the DP-C will beep to confirm the function.
  • Page 12: Zeroing Pressure

    Zeroing Pressure If the zero reading of pressure has drifted, the pressure function can be easily re-zeroed. To reset the zero, make sure that both pressure ports are exposed to ambient pressure. Press and hold the PRESSURE key down for at least three seconds. The DP-C will beep and the display will show “0 in.

    down. The available time-constant choices ( 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 seconds) will sequence on the display. When the desired value is displayed immediately release the key. The DP-C will always reset the time constant to 1 second when turned off. The time-constant is actually an averaging period.

    Incrementing the test ID number in these situations ensures that the statistics for each test ID are calculated for a group of samples that share the same measurement parameters. You may not go back to a previous test ID and enter more samples. Once the test ID is incremented, the data stored in the previous test IDs cannot be changed in any way.

    is displaying any statistic, pressing the PRINT key will When the DP-C cause the current statistics to print. All statistics are printed as a set regardless of which one is currently displayed. Press and hold the PRINT key until the countdown reaches zero and beeps to print all values stored in memory.
