CS115 Barometric Pressure Sensor

The corrections involved can be significant: e.g., at 1000 mb and 20°C, barometric pressure will decrease by 1.1 mb for every 10 meter increase in altitude.

7. Maintenance and Calibration

Since the sensor is semi-sealed, minimum maintenance is required.

1.Visually inspect the cable connection to ensure it is clean and dry.

2.Ensure that the ground connection (shield) is secure and clean.

3.Visually inspect the casing for damage.

4.Ensure that the pneumatic connection and pipe are secure and undamaged.

The external case can be cleaned with a damp, lint-free cloth and a mild detergent solution.

Druck recommends recalibrating the CS115 every year. Contact Campbell Scientific, Inc., phone (435) 753-2342, for an RMA number before returning the sensor for recalibration. You may also return the unit directly to Druck USA for recalibration.

Should you lose the five terminal connector (p/n 16004), the replacement part can be purchased from Campbell Scientific, Inc. Contact Campbell Scientific, Inc. to purchase the part.

CAUTION The CS115 is sensitive to static when the backplate is removed. To avoid damage, take adequate anti-static measures when handling.
