SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on converting voltage readings from a Setra 264 pressure sensor to pressure measurements in mm H2O. The Setra 264 outputs a voltage signal ranging from 0 to 5 VDC, corresponding linearly to a pressure span of 0.1 inwc to 100 inwc. For example, 0 VDC represents 0 inwc, while 5 VDC indicates 100 inwc. Users should verify the specific span listed on the instrument's nameplate, as this will dictate the conversion calculations.
