Wiring PR-282 Units with mA Output
PR-282 Differential Pressure Transducer with mA Output
The PR-282 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.

The PR-282 pressure transducers with VDC output 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 [O] terminal markings on the board.
3. Attach the power wires to the [+] and [-] terminals. The [-] terminal is also the negative terminal.
4. Connect the [O] 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 connected to the [O] 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-282.
Caution: This product contains a half-wave rectifier power supply and must not be powered off transformers used to power other devices utilizing non-insolated full-wave rectifier power supplies.
Caution: When multiple PR-282 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-282 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-282 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 (Z) 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.
