CALIBRAT.:
Gauge Calibration: Both zero and span adjustments are available. This gauge has been configured with a default password of &Oslash;&Oslash;&Oslash;&Oslash;&Oslash;. This factory password does not allow access to calibration. To access the calibration mode, it is necessary to configure a user password. Once the user
password is configured, it will become the default
password that allows access to gauge calibration.

KEYPAD FUNCTIONS
To access the factory default password:
Step 1: Press the CONFIG key until the word
CALIBRAT appears.
Step 2: Press the ENTER key.
Step 3: The letters/asterisks… PW***** appear.
Step 4: Press the CONFIG key. An &Oslash; appears in
the first position.
Step 5: Press the ENTER key once.
Step 6: Press the CONFIG key until &Oslash; appears. &Oslash;
will appear in the second position.
Step 7: Press ENTER.
Step 8: Use this format until all the asterisks are
replaced with &Oslash;.
There now should be a total of five &Oslash;’s on the
keyboard display. The zero in the fifth position
should be blinking.
Step 9: Press the ENTER key. You are now
prompted to SET PW (or set password).
Step 10: Press the ENTER key.
Step 11: Decide on a five number user password,
then follow the procedure above inserting a number in the flashing display until
all five numbers are inserted.
Step 12: A SAVE prompt will then appear. If the
selected user password is acceptable,
press ENTER. If the selected user password is not acceptable press ZERO
CLEAR to refigure the user password.
After the password is configured, the default
factory password will be replaced with the user
password. Once configured, the factory password
is no longer accessible.
If an incorrect password is entered, the system
will display WRONG. Press the CONFIG key to
reenter the correct password.
Step 13: Press ENTER again to begin calibration.
Note: Calibration feature allows recalibration of
zero and span.

KEYPAD FUNCTIONS
Zero Calibration:
Step 14: Press the CONFIG key once and the word
CALIBRA appears. Press ENTER. (This
mode allows for 0 and full- scale adjustment of span.) The gauge will now display 0.00. Ensure the gauge is not pressurized,1 then press ENTER to zero the
gauge. Zero calibration is now complete.
Full Scale Calibration
Step 15: The gauge will now display full-scale
range (e.g. 100.00 psi). Pressurize the
gauge to 100% of the range (which is
equal to the displayed value) utilizing a
pressure standard with accuracy four
times greater than the unit being calibrated.2 Press ENTER. Full-scale calibration is
now complete.
Notes:
1. If the digital gauge under test is not pressurized
while in span adjustment of full-scale range, an
ERROR message will be displayed when the
ENTER button is pressed. If this occurs, press
the ZERO CLEAR button on the keypad to return
to the previous screen.
2. ASME B40.7-1998, section 6.1.1.1 recommends
the working standard for the gauge being tested
is 4X better than the digital gauge under test.
This means the pressure standard measuring
the full-scale pressure being applied to the
gauge should have an accuracy four times
greater than the unit being spanned.
Zero SP (span):
This feature allows setting the % of span in which
the zero button will operate. Span is limited to prevent accidental tare of process pressures. Options
are 5%, 10% or DISAB (5% is the factory default
and means the unit can be rezeroed between &plusmn;5%
of span). If DISAB is selected, the zero button is
deactivated and no display change will occur when
the zero button is pushed.

KEYPAD FUNCTIONS
Step 1: Press the CONFIG key until the word ZERO
SP appears.
Step 2: Press ENTER.
Step 3: Enter user five digit password (PW). This is
the same password established to access
the CONFIG mode in the menu.
Step 4: Press the CONFIG key to select the
desired option.
Step 5: Press ENTER to finalize the selection.
Notes:
Selecting the DISAB feature does not disable the
CLEAR button on the keypad for the MAX/MIN feature. If the DISAB feature is selected, pressing the
ZERO button on the keypad will cause the display to
read DISAB for two seconds. The gauge will then
revert back to the unit of measure of the gauge. The
DISAB feature disables the zero feature of the gauge.
Zero Disable Feature:
This feature allows disabling the Zero/Clear button
on the keypad. It also allows for a zero tolerance of
either 5% (default) or 10% of the gauge range.
Step 1: Press the CONFIG key until the word ZERO
SP appears.
Step 2: Press ENTER.
Step 3: A prompt appears to enter PW (enter
password). The ZERO SP password is the
same password as discussed on page 10
and the heading CALIBRAT:, Gauge
Calibration. Follow the instructions on
page 10 to enter a password.
Step 4: Press the CONFIG key to select the zero
tolerance, either 5% or 10% of range, or
press the CONFIG key again and the word
DISAB appears. Press ENTER to select the
new default setting.

options. The default is ENABLE for all options in
the CONFIG mode.
Step 1: Press the CONFIG key until the word
DISABLE appears.
Step 2: Press the ENTER key.
Step 3: Insert the user password following the
procedure as described in steps 3 through
13 above.
Note: This is the same user password as in the
CALIBRAT mode.
Step 4: Press the ENTER key.
Step 5: The first option in the CONFIG menu will
now be displayed (UNITS).
Step 6: To DISABLE the UNITS option press the
ENTER key until the word DISABLE
appears.
Step 7: Press the CONFIG key. The UNITS option
is now DISABLED.
Step 8: Proceed through the balance of the

Gauge Installation:
Pipe Mount – The Ashcroft digital test gauge comes standard with
a 1⁄4 NPT connection. Good piping practices recommend using
teflon tape or a pipe sealant on the gauge threads. Utilize a 7⁄16˝
wrench on the wrench flat of the gauge to tighten the gauge to the
process.
NEVER TIGHTEN GAUGE THREADS BY HOLDING THE BODY OF
THE GAUGE. DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE GAUGE AND MAKE
THE GAUGE INOPERABLE.
Panel Mount – The lower connected Ashcroft digital test gauge is
available with an optional flange for panel mounting. Please refer to
illustration and dimensions below.

Battery Installation and Replacement:
The gauge comes standard with three AAA alkaline batteries installed.
For battery replacement use only one of the three types listed below:
• Energizer AAA alkaline, E92 LR03 AM4 1.5V
• Energizer AAA alkaline, EN92 LR03 AM4 1.5V
• Duracell AAA alkaline, MN2400 LR03 1.5V
Do not mix ages or brands of batteries. Do not replace batteries in
hazardous areas.
Batteries have a life of approximately 1000 hours. Battery life is
dependent on gauge usage, backlite settings and power off settings.
When the display flashes LOW BAT, batteries should be replaced.
To replace the batteries:
1) Remove the single screw on the back of the gauge case.
2) Hold the keypad in the palm of hand.
3) Carefully remove the three batteries from the holder and replace
the
batteries. Use only AAA alkaline non-rechargeable batteries.
Pipe to which gauge is attached must be properly grounded.

Frequently asked questions

To replace the batteries, remove the single screw on the back of the gauge case. Hold the keypad in the palm of your hand. Carefully remove the three batteries from the holder and replace the batteries. Use only AAA alkaline non-rechargeable batteries.

The Ashcroft Digital Test Gauge is available in three accuracy levels: 0.05%, 0.10%, and 0.25%. All accuracy levels are Full Scale Terminal Point Total Error Band (TEB) Accuracy including Hysteresis, Linearity, Repeatablility & Temperature.

The factory default password for the Ashcroft Digital Test Gauge is ØØØØØ. This password does not allow access to calibration. To access the calibration mode, you must configure a user password.

The Ashcroft Digital Test Gauge is available in a variety of ranges, including vacuum through 7000 psi. See the engineering units section of the manual for a complete list of available ranges.

The Ashcroft Digital Test Gauge allows for both zero and span adjustments. To access calibration, you must first configure a user password. Once a user password is configured, you can access the calibration mode through the CONFIG menu. Ensure the gauge is not pressurized while adjusting the zero point, then press ENTER. To adjust the span, pressurize the gauge to 100% of the range, then press ENTER.
