7.8.1.5.3 Zero Basis (Option 4)
Case: A non-vented piezometer (water depth pressure transducer) needs its offset
zeroed before deployment. Because piezometer temperature and barometric
pressure have strong influences on the pressure measurement, their offsets need to
be zeroed as well. The relationship between absolute pressure, gage pressure, and
piezometer temperature is summarized in the linear equation,
pressure=G*(R

The following procedure determines zero offset of the pressure transducer, water
temperature, and barometric pressure readings. Use the integrated keyboard /
display or support software numeric monitor to change variable values as directed.
