OVERVIEW
Gauge pressure Differential pressure
At rst glance, the 672 series precision pressure calibrators look like an ordinary pressure gauge. But this series is
much more than ordinary, and denitely more than just a pressure gauge—it’s a pressure calibrator! With advanced
microprocessor technology and state-of-the-art silicon pressure sensors, the 672 series precision pressure calibrators
provide a pressure calibration solution for gauges, transmitters, and switches over a wide pressure range. The 672
is the size of a pressure gauge but with the functionality of a calibrator: It measures pressure precisely with a built-
in pressure sensor, as well as reads the current or mV produced by a transducer. It can even supply an excitation
voltage to power sensors or transmitters during calibration. In order to reach 0.02%FS accuracy up to 10,000 psi
(700 bar) and 0.1%FS accuracy up to 60,000 psi (4,200 bar), every silicon pressure sensor has been specially aged,
tested, and screened before assembly. The 672 series precision pressure calibrators are unmatched in performance
and reliability.

Percentage of Reading Accuracy
Application Note
Understanding Accuracy Specifications for Digital Pressure Sensors – Percentage of Full Scale Versus
Percentage of Reading
Specications for digital pressure gauges can sometimes seem confusing or overwhelming, especially, if you are
unfamiliar with the terminology. Some pressure sensors will specify accuracy as a percent of full scale (FS) while
others provide the specication as a percent of reading. So why are there different ways of specifying the accuracy of
pressure sensors and is percent of reading more accurate than percent of full scale or vise versa? This brief technical
note will discuss the two differences and answer these questions.
Accuracy as a percentage of reading is accomplished by multiplying
the accuracy percentage by the pressure reading. Thus, the lower
the pressure measurement, the better the accuracy. Instruments that
have a percent reading specification are accompanied with a floor
specication. The oor specication takes into account uncertainties
such as resolution and measurement noise which may be negligible
at higher pressures but are of much more significance at lower
pressures.
For example, an accuracy specification may read 0.1% of reading
for 20 to 100% of range and 0.02% of full scale below 20% of the
range. The 0.02% of full scale specication is considered the oor
specication. To understand the accuracy of the sensor, the user is
then required to know where the oor spec is applicable and the full
scale of the sensor.
This method of specication is often used because it aligns well with
the typical performance of pressure gauges. Typically, the closer you
measure to barometric pressure the better the performance of the
gauge. Figures 1 and the graph below show an example specication
for a 100 psi gauge and its accuracy in psi.

Percentage of Full Scale Accuracy
A Comparison of Percent of Full Scale and Percent of Reading Accuracies
Accuracy as a percentage of full scale is calculated by multiplying the
accuracy percentage by the full scale pressure of the gauge. This is
obviously a more simple method of specication and is most commonly
used in industry because it is easy to calculate and interpret. Denoting the
accuracy as percent full scale is a more conservative way of specifying
the pressure sensor because typically the sensor doesn't perform the
same over its full range. It usually will perform more accurately as you
approach barometric pressure. This type of specication is most common
for industrial gauges which make it easier to compare one gauge versus
another. Figure 2 is an example specication for a 100 psi gauge and its
accuracy in psi.

100 0.10 0.05 0.02
So you may ask, "Which is more accurate?" The answer is that it depends
on the pressure being measured. In the two examples given, the gauge
specied at 0.1% of reading is more accurate as you measure lower
pressures in its range. However, as you move above 50% of the range,
the gauge specied at 0.05% of full scale becomes more accurate than
the 0.1% of reading gauge. This can be seen clearly in the chart (left)
and graph (below) where the two gauges are compared in terms of psi
accuracy. To properly compare these, two gauges you should convert the
accuracy to pressure units, such as psi or bar. Then they can be properly
matched one against another in like units of measure.
In conclusion, one method of specication is not better than another, it
is just different. Given this difference it becomes important to know how
to interpret the different specications types and be able to compare one
versus another.
