The APMi uses the same reliable, high accuracy, digital temperature compensated technology found in Crystal products, housed in a rugged enclosure with a selectable-length cable to connect to your HPC50 calibrator. Two APMi modules can be connected to a single HPC50 calibrator. Note: Currently, the HPC50 is the only Crystal calibrator supported by the APMi pressure module. Note: This manual includes information on the APMi modules only. For details on the operation of the HPC50 Series, please refer to the User Manual. What's Included Each unit includes an APMi pressure module, an interface cable of your choice (1, 3, or 10 meter), a fitting of your choice (1/4 NPT Male, 1/4 BSP Male, or M20 x 1.5 Male), an ISO 17025 Accredited Calibration Certificate (NIST traceable), and AMETEK product CD. Crystal Engineering calibration facilities are A2LA accredited, (#2601.01) which is internationally recognized by ILAC. Overview y 1 APMi Series Operation Manual Find Quality Products Online at: www.GlobalTestSupply.com sales@GlobalTestSupply.com Operation ADVANCED PRESSURE MODULE APMi INSTRUCTIONS Pressure Connection Crystal CPF System: Medium Pressure Female (MPF) (1/4" medium pressure tube system with 7/16-20 threads). See our CPF Brochure for further information. U.S. Patent No. 8,794,677 CPF o-ring size and material: AS568A-012, Viton 80 durometer (P/N 3981). For most applications CPF Fittings can be hand tightened for use up to 10 000 psi / 700 bar / 70 MPa (no tools required). Wrench tightening is recommended (to achieve a metal to metal cone seal) for applications where chemical compatibility of the process fluid and the o-ring are a concern, or for pressures above 10 000 psi / 700 bar / 70 MPa. We recommend a tightening torque of 120 in-lbs ± 20 in-lbs. Please note this is only a fraction of the typical torque required to seal a 1/4" NPT fitting. If a torque wrench isn't practical to use, the fittings can be assembled as follows: Hand tighten fitting fully until the cone has bottomed out. Tighten an additional 20º using a wrench. Apply a small amount of media-compatible lubricant to the gland threads and male cone to increase fitting life, reduce the likelihood of galling, and promote sealing. ! WARNING: Pressurized hoses and associated equipment are potentially dangerous. Slowly bleed off pressure from the system being pressurized prior to connecting or disconnecting the Crystal APMi. Measuring Vacuum All ranges of the APMi can be used to measure moderate vacuum. Ranges 300 psi / 30 bar / 3 MPa and below are calibrated for vacuum use. When measuring pressure less than ambient barometric conditions, a minus sign (-) will appear. ! CAUTION: The APMi is not recommended for continuous use at high vacuum. Overpressure Conditions The APMi will read pressure up to approximately 110% of the rated pressure range. The HPC50 Calibrator will display an overpressure warning. For example, above 110% of the range, "OL" will display on the HPC50, indicating an Overload Alarm. The zero function does not affect when the "OL" is displayed to indicate overpressure. So depending on the zero value, it is possible that the display will indicate "OL" without the maximum pressure being displayed. For instance, if a 100 psi APMi is zeroed when 30 psi is being applied, it will indicate that the overpressure condition has been reached at 80 psi. (i.e., 110% x 100 psi 30 psi = 80 psi). Overpressure can affect accuracy, but the effect is only temporary unless the sensor has been damaged. See Specifications for maximum allowable overpressure ratings.

Gauge Accuracy +0.002 psiA Includes all effects of linearity, hysteresis, repeatability, temperature, and stability for one year. Exposure to environmental extremes of temperature, shock, and/or vibration may warrant a more frequent recertification period. APMi modules must be exercised and re-zeroed whenever exposed to significant changes in environmental conditions to achieve these specifications. To exercise a module, cycle the module between zero (ambient barometric pressure) and the pressure of interest. A properly exercised module will return to a zero reading (or return to the same ambient barometric reading). ACCURACY CONTINUED All models indicate vacuum, but vacuum specification applies only where specified. Not recommended for continuous use at high vacuum. Refer to XP2i-DP data sheet for gauges that are intended for continuous high vacuum use. The BARO option for the HPC50 Series allows you to toggle between gauge and absolute pressure using the same APMi module.

APMi Series Operation Manual Find Quality Products Online at: www.GlobalTestSupply.com sales@GlobalTestSupply.com Support CALIBRATION If adjustment is required, we recommend returning the APMi to the factory. Factory service offers benefits you won't find anywhere else. Factory calibration tests your APMi utilizing NIST traceable standards, resulting in calibration certificates that provide performance data and uncertainties. Our calibration facilities are A2LA accredited (cert #2601.01) to ISO 17025:2005 & ANSI/NCSL Z540-1-1994. A2LA is internationally recognized as an accreditation body by the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation, ILAC. Furthermore, upgrades may be available to add or enhance operating features. We designed the product to last, and we support it so that you can get the most from your investment. Under normal operating conditions, we recommend the APMi be calibrated on an annual basis. Your quality system may require more or less frequent calibration, or your experience with the gauge, or operating environment may suggest longer or shorter intervals. There are no internal potentiometers. The APMi has a "span factor" (userspan), set to approximately 1 (as shipped from the factory). As components age this may need to be changed to a value slightly higher or lower, to slightly increase or decrease all readings. This adjustment can be made with a computer through our free CrystalControl software. "Zero" the APMi, then record the displayed pressure for two or more pressure points. Determine if the APMi would benefit from an overall increase or decrease of the indicated pressures. Adjust the userspan value accordingly and validate the results.
