INSTALLATION
Inspection
Requirements
Inspect the package for damage. If damaged, notify the
appropriate carrier immediately. If undamaged, open the
package and inspect the device for obvious damage.
Return damaged products.
• Tools (not provided)
• Appropriate accessories
• Two #8 self-tapping mounting screws (not provided)
• Training: Installer must be a qualified, experienced technician
Warning:
• Do not use on oxygen service, in an explosive/hazardous
environment, or with flammable/combustible media.
• Disconnect power supply before installation to prevent
electrical shock and equipment damage.
• Make all connections in accordance with the job wiring
diagram and in accordance with national and local
electrical codes. Use copper conductors only.
Caution:
• Use electrostatic discharge precautions (e.g., use of wrist
straps) during installation and wiring to prevent equipment
damage.
• Avoid locations where severe shock or vibration, excessive
moisture or corrosive fumes are present. NEMA Type 4
housings are intended for outdoor use primarily to provide
a degree of protection against wind-blown dust, rain, and
hose-directed water.
• Do not exceed ratings of the device.

PR-276 pressure transducers with 4–20 mA output units are powered with a
12–40 VDC supply.
The following describes the proper wiring of these pressure transducers with
mA output:
1. Remove the terminal block by carefully pulling it off the circuit board.
2. Locate the [+] and [-] terminal markings on the board.
3. Attach the supply voltage to the [+] lead.
4. Connect the 4–20 mA output ([-] terminal) to the controller’s input terminal.
5. Ensure that the power supply common is attached to the common bus of
the controller.
6. Re-insert the terminal block to the circuit board and apply power to the unit.
7. Check for the appropriate output signal using a DVM set on DC milliamps
connected in series with the [-] terminal.

PR-276 pressure transducers with VDC output are field selectable 0–5 VDC or
0–10 VDC output and can be powered with either a 12– 40 VDC or 12–35 VAC.
The following describes the proper wiring of these pressure transducers with
VDC output:
1. Remove the terminal block by carefully pulling it off the circuit board.
2. Locate the [+], [-] and [0] terminal markings on the board.
3. Attach the power wires to the [+] and [-] terminals. The [-] terminal is also
the negative output terminal.
4. Connect the [0] terminal, which is the positive VDC output terminal, to the
controller’s input terminal.
5. Re-insert the terminal block to the circuit board and apply power to the unit.
6. Check the appropriate VDC output using a voltmeter set on DC volts across
the [0] and [-] terminals.

Caution: If you are using grounded AC, the hot wire must be on the [+] terminal. Also, if you are using a controller without built-in isolation, use an isolation
transformer to supply the PR-276 transducer.
Caution: This product contains a half-wave rectifier power supply and must not be powered off transformers used to power other devices utilizing non-isolated
full-wave rectifier power supplies.
Caution: When multiple PR-276 units are powered from the same transformer, damage will result unless all 24G power leads are connected to the same
power lead on all devices. It is mandatory that correct phasing be maintained when powering more than one device from a single transducer.

Operation
CALIBRATION
1. Verify that the unit is mounted in the correct position.
2. Verify appropriate input signal and supply voltage.
CAUTION: Never connect 120 VAC to these transducers.
Never connect AC voltage to a unit intended for DC supply.
3. Verify appropriate configuration range.
This is a rough functional check only.
1. Adjust the pressure to obtain maximum output signal for
appropriate range.
2. Output should be 20 mA or 5 or 10 VDC.
3. Adjust the pressure to obtain minimum output signal.
4. Output should be 4 mA or 0 VDC.
NOTE: The PR-276 is a highly accurate device. For
applications requiring a high degree of accuracy, the use of
laboratory quality meters and gauges are recommended.
All units are factory calibrated to meet or exceed published
specifications. If field adjustment is necessary, follow the
instructions below.
Calibration of PR-276 mA Units
1. Connect terminals [+] and [-] to the appropriate power
source.
2. Connect the DVM in series on the [-] terminal.
3. Apply low pressure to the unit and carefully adjust the zero
trimmer [Zu] to obtain desired low output.
4. Apply high pressure to the unit and adjust span trimmer [S]
to obtain the desired high output pressure.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until desired calibration is achieved.
