Read: How to Configure HPM5 Instruments with the Prisma Electronics APP

The digital tire pressure gauge HPM5 does not require calibration. Upon each power-up, the internal microcontroller verifies the sensor's calibration. If the parameters are not correct, the message OFFSET ERROR will appear on the display.

Yes, you can measure pressure in both BAR and PSI. Here are some key specifications:

• Pressure Resolution: 0.001BAR / 0.01 PSI
• Pressure Range: from 0 to 7 BAR (up t 100 PSI)

Cold pressure is the starting Pressure value, while Hot Pressure represent the tire's operating value.

Yes, HPM5 instruments are configurable for both two- and four-wheeled vehicles. You can use the app to change the configuration or through the instrument's menu.

You can save hot pressures by enabling the PRESSURE-SHOT function, either through the APP or directly from the instrument’s menu.

This function is particularly useful: simply measure the pressure and remove the instrument from the tire valve — the value is automatically saved without pressing any button.

This feature is designed exclusively for hot pressures, as they represent the actual operating pressure of the tire and should not be altered.

Yes, all Prisma Electronics HPM5 gauges perform automatic barometric pressure compensation.

At each startup, the device performs an internal calibration referencing the current atmospheric pressure. This ensures that the displayed tire pressure values remain accurate regardless of variations in barometric pressure due to altitude changes or weather conditions.

The infrared pyrometer measures the surface temperature without contact, while the probe pyrometer measures the internal temperature by penetrating the material.

The battery type of the HiPreMa 4 - HiPreMa 5 products line is CR2450. The average battery life is about 2 years. The display shows the battery charge status. Use only good quality batteries: SONY – DURACELL – PANASONIC.
