Make Dialing Back to Zero a Snap with the Zero Adjustment Option
All of WIKA Instrument Corporation’s Type 2XX.34 (4.5") liquid-filled and dry process gauges feature an external zero adjustment option, which makes adjusting the gauge after it has been installed as simple as dialing back to zero. The external zero adjustment mechanism is conveniently located on the front of the gauge so there is no need to disassemble the gauge when pointer adjustments are necessary.
Simply insert a small screwdriver into the slot on the lens, shown in the Figure 1, and turn the dial. This option allows for up to 15 degrees of radial movement and can be used for adjustments above or below the zero mark.
When is zero adjustment needed?
The external re-zero option is highly suitable for process gauges prone to zero shift. Applications where it is beneficial include low pressure ranges, liquid-field cases, instruments exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations, and with diaphragm seal assemblies.
