W
ARNING !
• Do not use on oxygen service, in an explosive or hazardous
environment, or with flammable or combustible material.
• Disconnect the power supply before installing the transducer. Failure
to do so can result in electrical shock and equipment damage.
• Make all connections in accordance with the job wiring diagram and
national and local electrical codes. Use only copper conductors.
• Use electrostatic discharge precautions such as wrist straps when
installing and wiring the transducer.
• Do not exceed ratings for the transducer.

Mounting
The electropneumatic transducer must be mounted in an upright
position so tha
easily.
1. Select the mounting location.
2. Mount the transducer on a vertical surface with three #8 self-
tapping screws (not provided).
3. Pull wires through the bottom of the transducer and make the
necessary connections.
4. Make the pneumatic connections.
Wiring
Use 12 AWG wire maximum for wiring terminals and flexible 1/4-inch
outer diameter poly tubing for main and branch pneumatic connections.
See Figures 3 and 4 for wiring configurations and Figures 5 through 7
for jumper designations.

• Ensure that the main supply pressure does not exceed 40 PSI.
• Ensure a minimum
transducer and the actuator.
• For a 24 VAC supply voltage, ensure that the hot and neutral are not
reversed. If more than one transducer is being powered from the
same transformer, the hot and neutral should be the same for each
transducer.

Typical Applications (wiring diagrams)
Figures 3 and 4 illustrate typical wiring diagrams for the
electropneumatic transducer.

Transducer Operation
1. Adjust the input signal to obtain a maximum output pressure for the
appropriate range.
2. Ensure that the output is 15 or 20 PSI.
3. Adjust the input signal to obtain a minimum output pressure.
4. Ensure that the output is 0 or 3 PSI.
Calibration
All electropneumatic transducers are factory calibrated to meet or
exceed published specifications. If field adjustment is necessary, follow
these instructions:

AUTION
• This transducer contains a half-wave rectifier power supply and must
not be powered from transformers powering other devices with nonisolated full-wave rectifier power supplies.
Adjustments
Jumper Configuration
The electropneumatic transducer is factory configured for 4 - 20 mA
output. To change the input configuration, adjust the jumper settings.
See Figures 5, 6, and 7.
1. Connect air to the Main port. See Figure 8.
2. Connect an accurate gage to the Branch port using a minimum of
t
o 10 feet (1.8 to 3.0 m) of tubing.
3. Connect the [+] and [-] terminals to an appropriate power source fo
he transducer. The transducer can accept either a 24 VAC or V
