The BAPI ZPS-05-FR74-BB-AT is a Fixed Range Pressure (FRP) differential pressure transmitter with a factory-set 0 to 5 VDC output and a fixed 0 to 3.00” WC Unidirectional pressure range (range code FR74). Both the output and pressure range are locked at the factory, eliminating field configuration errors and reducing commissioning to a single auto-zero step. The rugged IP66/NEMA 4 polycarbonate enclosure with hinged cover mounts directly to any surface via four external tabs and #10 self-tapping screws. A three-color LED (Red/Green/Blue) provides instant pressure status without accessing the BAS. This configuration ships with an attached static pressure probe built into the enclosure, so a single trade can install the sensor and connect the high-pressure tap without a separate probe order. A NIST-traceable calibration certificate is available at no extra charge.
Fixed 0-5 VDC / 0 to 3.00” WC
Output and range are factory-locked — commissioning is auto-zero only. Power: 7 to 40 VDC or 12 to 28 VAC. Wiring: 3-wire via rising-block terminal. Accuracy: ±1% FS + 0.003” WC (0.75 Pa). Stability: ±1% FS per year.
3-Color LED Status + IP66/NEMA 4
Three visible LEDs provide pressure status at a glance without opening the enclosure or accessing the BAS. Red = Out of Range High • Green = In Range • Blue = Out of Range Low. Hinged cover with latch screws achieves IP66 rating. UV-resistant polycarbonate enclosure rated NEMA 4.
Attached Static Probe
Static pressure probe is factory-attached inside the BAPI-Box enclosure. One trade installs the sensor and connects the pressure tap — no separate probe, tubing, or bulkhead fitting order. Mount with preferred orientation pressure ports facing down to prevent condensation. 4 external tabs, #10 × 3/4” self-tapping screws (included).

3-Color LED Status Indicator
The LED is powered whenever supply voltage is applied. LED color indicates pressure state at a glance:
| LED Color | Pressure Status |
|---|---|
| Red | Out of Range High — pressure above upper limit |
| Green | In Range — pressure within span |
| Blue | Out of Range Low — pressure below lower limit |
Frequently Asked Questions
What pressure range does range code FR74 specify on this FRP sensor?
FR74 designates a factory-set pressure range of 0 to 3.00 in WC (unidirectional). Both this pressure range and the 0 to 5 VDC output are locked at the factory and cannot be changed in the field. The NIST-traceable calibration certificate available at no extra charge covers this specific range and output combination.
How do I auto-zero the ZPS-05-FR74-BB-AT?
The unit must be mounted at its final location before auto-zeroing. Power must be on. Disconnect the system tubing from the Low Pressure brass fitting and attach the supplied 6-inch deadhead tubing. Disconnect the short clear tubing from the 90-degree black fitting using your fingers. Connect the clear tubing to the supplied straight black fitting on the deadhead tube. Do not kink the tubing. Press and hold the Auto-Zero button for 1 to 2 seconds; the LED stops flashing when complete. Reattach the clear tubing and system tubing, confirming the clear tubing is fully seated and not kinked.
What power supply does the 0-5 VDC output on this FRP sensor require?
The 0 to 5 VDC output requires 7 to 40 VDC or 12 to 28 VAC. Wiring uses a 3-wire rising-block screw terminal (V+, GND, VOUT). BAPI recommends wiring with power disconnected. Do not run sensor wiring in the same conduit as line voltage or highly inductive loads such as motors or generators.
