What’s the difference between compensated temperature range, operating temperature range and storage temperature range?

Compensated Range: The range of temperature that Setra is required to meet its’ specification. The unit must be in a fixed stable temperature environment with the unit saturated at that temperature.

Operating Temperature: The range where the unit will function Within this temperature range, a change in pressure will be indicated but the accuracy is not maintained.

Storage Temperature: The range you can sore the unit in, without risk of compromising the product

The range of temperature that Setra is responsible for maintaining the accuracy specifications. The unit temperature must be saturated throughout the unit and stable.

This range of temperature requires the Setra’s product will respond to a pressure change but the accuracy is no longer maintained .

If the transducer is exposed to the extremes of the range and returns to the OPERATING range, the transducer will respond again. While in the extremes of this range, the transducer may not respond to a pressure change.

All temperature specs listed are AMBIENT conditions, NOT the temperature of the media.

Note: When bringing into an environment, you should give it time to adjust to the new conditions
