Overview

The CS408 was a pressure transducer with an SDI-12 output. The static accuracy of the CS408 was ±0.05% over a 0° to 50°C temperature range.

Technical Description

The CS408 had a choice of either a polyurethane or Tefzel cable. Both cables contained a vent tube so that the sensor head could reach equilibrium with atmospheric pressure. As the vent tube connected directly to the back side of the sensor's diaphragm, water vapor needed to be removed before entering the vent tube. Removing the water vapor helped protect the sensor head from mildew, corrosion, and rust. It also prevented formation of a liquid column in the vent tube which would directly affect the measurement.

Data Logger Considerations

The CS408 output a digital SDI-12 signal to indicate observed pressure level; the SDI-12 signal was measured and recorded by the data logger.

  1. The information included on a calibration sheet differs with each sensor. For some sensors, the sheet contains coefficients necessary to program a datalogger. For other sensors, the calibration sheet is a pass/fail report.

  2. This depends on the information contained in the calibration sheet:

    • If the calibration sheet contains coefficient information, Campbell Scientific keeps a copy, and a replacement copy can be requested.
    • If the calibration sheet does not contain coefficients, Campbell Scientific does not keep a copy. It may be possible to contact the original manufacturer for a replacement copy.
