I calibrated it with a fluke pressure tester.

Accuracy is good I believe the transducer output signal is maybe too slow as previously discussed.

Also verified the 5v output from the dc converter is good( checked with the scope)

Those are the same ones that I got. I've replaced my homemade transducer with a WPS500 kit. Very happy with it

Your waveform had the same issues as mine.

Just an update with this PT dilemma. I bought the transducer posted on page 1 from ebay. It was worst than my original, it couldn't read anything under -3 psi so basically there was a flat line at the bottom of the waveform. The problem with the pic I posted before was, I didn't set the look up table to read vacuum pressures. I messaged a youtuber about the transducer he used and he said most new transducers having this same issue. You would have had a better chance of a quality one a few years ago.

So I tried a 0-100psi on running compression to compare to the 0-300 and it was similar.


After some filtering with the 0-300psi I got this. I will settle with this for now since the waveform is still readable.

why does the snap on model not have the have the 9volt power and step down converter?

and could we use one of these to use multiple tranducers at one time:?

I guess for my Snapon Modis I will have to build this:

Description

• Adapts standard meter jacks to EEPV302AL, EEPV302AT and EEPV302AH pressure transducers (not included)

• Provides connection of transducer plug to standard meter jacks, and provides power to the pressure transducers

• Use up to two transducers simultaneously

• View results on VERDICT®/MODIS® Ultra/MODIS® Edge/VANTAGE® Ultra/M2 Meter


I am too cheap to buy one LOL Will have to sourse everything. see attached image
