The 4-20 mA PT-L1 is a 2 wire, loop powered transducer/ transmitter. A voltage of between 10 and 36 VDC must be maintained at this connection. Completion of the earth or system ground is recommended for proper circuit protection.
Power supply voltage must be sucient to maintain a minimum of 9 VDC at the transducer/transmitter terminals after “dropping” voltage across RL at full scale current (20 mA). Example: If RL = 250 Ω then “drop” is
0.02 Amps X 250 Ω = 5 volts. Therefore power supply minimum is 5V + 10V = 15V.

Chapter 2: Installation and Removal Procedures and Notes
• Tools Needed
Wrench sized appropriately for your PT-L’s process connection (usually 3/4”).
Thread tape or sealant compound for threaded connections.

Mounting Instructions
Mounting your pressure transducer is easy if you follow a few simple steps:
Never over-tighten the sensor. This can compress the diaphragm, changing how it reacts to pressure. In all cases, tighten the sensor as little as possible to create an adequate seal. On straight threads, tighten only until you feel the o-ring compress - making sure you don’t damage or extrude the o-ring.
Always use thread tape or sealant compound on tapered threads. Wrap thread tape in the opposite direction of the threads so it does not unravel as you screw the sensor into place. Unraveling can cause uneven distribution and seal failure. For straight threads use an o-ring.
Always start screwing in your sensor by hand to avoid cross-threading. Thread failure can be a problem if you damage threads by over-tightening them or by crossing threads.
• Electrical Installation
Check the pinout table on your PT-L against your order.
Check that your electrical system wiring matches the pinout table on your PT-L.
For instruments with connectors, make the connection. For instruments with pigtails, run the cable to
a junction box in a suitable location to connect to your system.
• Removal Instructions
Removing your PT-L from service must be done with care. It’s easy to create an unsafe situation, or damage your sensor, if you are not careful to follow these guidelines:
Make sure the pressure is completely removed from the line or vessel where your sensor is installed. Follow any and all procedures for safely isolating any media contained inside the line or vessel.
Remove the sensor with an appropriately sized wrench (per your process connection).
Carefully clean the sensor’s tting and diaphragm of any debris (see General Care) and inspect for
damage.
Store your sensor in a dry place, at a temperature between -40° F and 180° F.
DANGER: Removing your PT-L Pressure Transmitter while there is still pressure in the
line could result in injury or death.

Chapter 3: Maintenance
• General Care
Your PT-L series pressure transmitter is very low maintenance and will need little care as long as it was installed correctly. However, in general, you should:
Keep the transmitter and the area around it generally clean.
Avoid applications for which the transmitter was not designed, such as extreme temperatures, contact
with incompatible corrosive chemicals, or other damaging environments.
Inspect the threads whenever you remove the transmitter from duty or change its location.
Avoid touching the diaphragm. Contact with the diaphragm, especially with a tool, could permanently
shift the output and ruin accuracy.
Clean the diaphragm or the diaphragm bore with extreme care. If using a tool is required, make sure it does not touch the diaphragm.
IMPORTANT: Any contact with the diaphragm can permanently damage the sensor.
Use extreme caution.
NOTE: Non-sealed sensors have a small vent hole that must not be covered or closed.
Covering, closing, or otherwise sealing this hole will prevent proper sensor operation.
Zero Trimming
If it becomes necessary to re-adjust “zero”, this can be accomplished by adjusting the trimpot marked “Z”. An ideal zero is indicated by an output of 4 mA, 0 VDC or 1 VDC, depending on your model.
Remove the knurled nut. If your transducer does not have a knurled nut, your transducer can not be eld adjusted. You can return the transducer to the factory for repair and/or adjustment.
Carefully remove the connector or pigtail from the body of the transducer and pull it all the way out so that the amplier board is exposed. Do not over extend the ribbon cable that attaches the amplier board to the sensor.
Reconnect the device with the loop powered circuit and have access to a method of monitoring the output of the transducer.
Ensure that the transducer is at 0 psig or 0 psia (vacuum if absolute).
Using a jewelers screwdriver or suitable instrument, adjust the “Z” pot (See Figure 3.1) until you have
zero output.

IMPORTANT: Do not make changes to the Span adjust- ment (the “S” pot to the right, see Figure 3.1) as part of the zero trimming. The Span should only be changed as part of the recalibration of a transducer with a known pressure
Figure 3.1
source.
• Re-Calibration
This procedure requires a known pressure source of at least ±0.1% accuracy in order to fully utilize the accuracy potential of the PT-L. (If not available, you can return it to the factory for re-calibration.)
Ensure that the transducer is at 0 psig or 0 psia (vacuum if absolute), and adjust zero as per instruc­tions for zero trimming.
Apply full scale pressure to the pressure port and adjust the Span (“S”) pot (on the right of Figure 3.1) until the full scale signal is reached.
Re-check zero and re-adjust the zero (“Z”) pot if required
Repeat previous two steps until no further adjustment is required.
NOTE: You may also return the PT-L to the factory for repair and/or adjustment.
• Repair and Returns
Should your PT-L series pressure transmitter require service, please contact the factory via phone, email, or online chat. We will issue you a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number with instructions.
