			===Barometric Temperature Correction===

			This sensor reports the absolute pressure of its surroundings. In other words, the pressure compared to a perfect vaccum. If you plan on using this sensor as a barometer, you need to convert to barometric pressure. You can use conversion calculators such as this [http://www.csgnetwork.com/barcorrecthcalc.html Above Sea Level Barometer Reading Correction Calculator] to make the adjustment based on your location's elevation.

==Technical Details==

The Absolute Gas Pressure Sensor provides an accurate, high level analog input signal that is proportional to the environment’s pressure.
The minimum pressure measurement for this sensor is 15 kPa. Any value lower than 15 kPa cannot be accurately distinguished.

===Ports===
The sensor port has a diameter of 2.79mm to 3.30 mm (nominal 3mm).

For hosing, we recommend using polyurethane tubing. We have had good results with 2.4mm ID tubing from Emiplastics.com. In imperial measurement, 3/32” ID tubing is equivalent. This is available through laboratory supply stores such as Cole Parmer.

===Formulas===
The Formula to translate SensorValue into Pressure is:

:<math>
\text{Pressure (kPa)}= \frac{\text{SensorValue}}{9.2} + 10.652
</math>

:<math>
\text{Pressure (psi)} = \frac{\text{SensorValue}}{63.45} + 1.54
</math>

'''Note:''' 1.0 kPa = 0.145 psi
