Thank you for purchasing TPI brand products. This meter is easy to use and is built to last. It is backed by a 3 year limited warranty. Please remember to return your product warranty registration card. Product Description The TPI 600 Tuffman series is a hand held range Of pressure meters and can be summarized as follows. TPI 635 5 PSI pressure range TPI 645 30 PSI pressure range TPI655 100 PSI pressure range All of these models are dual input differential pressure meters with 7 selectable scales to choose from: mbar, kPa, PSI, inHg. mmHg,inH20, and mH20. page 2 Safety Considerations WARNING: Please follow the manufacture's test procedure whenever possible. Make sure the pressure to be measured is not outside the range of the TPI 635/645/655 meter. General Guidelines ALWAYS • Test the pressure meter before use to ensure it is operating properly • Ensure that the connecting hose you are using is free from kinks or splits • Double check all connections before testing NEVER • Connect the instrument to an unknown pressure source if the source is twice the working pressure of the instrument the sensor will be damaged and may cause injury to the user • Tamper with the instrument or attempt to modify it in any way. Otherwise accident and injury may occur and the warranty be comes void. page 3 Technical Data Controls TPI 635/645/655 ON OFF ZERO == MAX/MIN HOLD UNITS page 4 Switches instrument "ON" for use Switches instrument "OFF" after use Automatically "zero's" the instrument Smoothing function to stabilize rapidly changing readings Enables user to recall & display both the maximum and minimum pressure recorded since the function was selected. Press button once to activate, twice to read minimum and three times to read the maximum. To cancel the function press and the hold the "MAXIMIN" button Maintains the reading on the LCD display Selects 7 units of measure kPa, PSI, inHg, mmHg, inH20, mH 20, mbar Features & Benefils Auto rangingProvides high resolution & accuracy at low pressures where it is needed Auto Power Off- Powers off after 30 minutes to conserve battery life. Trim ModeSmoothing function to stabilize erratic readings. It displays the average value of 4 values previously measured. Zero functionProvides immediate push-button zeroing for Speed and accuracy. Record Max/Min- Enables long term testing of pressure systems for leaks HoldEnables the user to freeze the display reading, when working in cramped working conditions, when the display is not visible. UnitsChange the display value in anyone of the following engineering units. kPa, PSI, inHg, mmHg, inH20, mH20 and mbar. page 5 Pressure Conversion Table Atmos Atmos 1 mbar 1013.25 in H20 406.8 inHg 29.9213 PSI 14.6959 mH20 10.3323 mmHg kPa page 6 760 101.325 mbar inHg inH20 9.86923 x 10-4 3.34207 X 10-2 2.45832 X 10-3 2.95301 x 10-2 1 7.35561 X 10-2 1 0.401463 33.8638 13.5951 1.45038 x 10-2 0.491153 1.01972 x 10-2 0.345315 0.750064 0.1 25.4 3.38638 2.49089 1 3.61273 X 10-2 1.86833 2.54 X 10-2 0.249089 PSI mmHg mH20 kPa 6.8046 X 10-2 1.31579 X 10-3 9.67841 X 10-3 9.86923 X 10-3 2.036 3.937 X 10-2 2.89591 0.295301 39.3701 4.01463 1.42233 0.145038 73.5561 7.50064 1 0.101972 9.80665 1 68.9476 27.68 1 51.715 0.70307 6.89476 1.33322 0.534 1.934 X 10-2 1 1.35951 X10-2 0.133322 98.0665 10 Step by Step Procedures • Press the "ON" key and the LCD display will be activated if it does not read 0.00 proceed as follows • Press the "zero" key and the display should read zero. if not repeat until it does • Connect pressure meter to installation or equipment to be tested using appropriate hose connection in accordance with the manufactures instructions • The pressure reading will appear on the display. To activate the backlight in poor light conditions press the "ON' key at any time • If the reading is erratic or changing activate the smoothing unction by pressing the" =" key • To freeze a reading in awkward or cramped working spaces press the "Hold" key • To record maximum & minimum pressures when establishing pressure decay or carrying out gas line soundness testing press the "MAXIMIN" key • To convert the displayed pressure reading to another engineering unit depress the "Unit" key anytime and scroll through to the desired units of pressure. page 7 Accessories & Specifications Standard Accessories 9V ALKALINE battery Replacement tubing t/4" 00 x 28"(L) Optional Accessories Replacement tubing 1/4' 00 x 28" T Fitting Large Zippered Case 9V lithium battery Part No. A009A A601 Part No. A605 A904 U9VL Features Model 635 645 655 Range 5 PSI 30 PSI 100 PSI Accuracy ±O.2'% of full scale +3 digits Over Pressure 14.5 psi (1000 mbar) 58.0 psi (4000 mbar) 145 psi (10 bar) Power Supply 9V Relative Humidity 0% to 80% (a· to + 40°C) Operating Temp. 32° to 104°F (D' to +40°C) Storage Temp. 14° to 122°F (-10"10 + 50'C) Auto Power Off After 30 minutes Trim Mode Yes Zero Adjust Yes Push Button Data Hold Yes Record Yes Max/Min page 8 Maintenance Battery Replacement The 635/645/655 will display a iBATi symb 01 when the internal 9V battery needs replacement.
