quick install
1. Select a location for the installation suitable to the gauge’s physical dimensions
that will allow access to the display and keypad. Plan for a ¼" M-NPT connection
or a hose to a ¼" tting.
2. Thread the gauge onto the tting. Apply tightening torque only to the metal
wrench ats, not to the PD housing. Use a 5/8” wrench. Do not overtighten.
3. Wire the device. See the wiring diagram in this guide.
4. Remove the protective lm from the gauge front.
5. Program the gauge.

DescriPtion
PD analog digital pressure gauges are media isolated, so they can be used with any
gas, liquid, or solid compatible with 17-4 PH stainless steel within the specied
pressure range. The transducer consists of a one-piece, high-strength pressure sensor
that uses no silicone oils, welds, O-rings, or seals. The sensor is coupled to a 4-20 mA
loop powered internal display and keypad. The keypad controls setup and operation
of the sensor as described below.
installation anD Wiring
Allow space to turn the PD Analog onto the pipe or tting during mounting. The PD is
delivered with the connector attached to the device.

Electrical
Select a loop power supply voltage and total loop resistance such that when the loop
current is 20 mA, the gauge will have at least 7.5 VDC at its terminals. Too large a loop
resistance will cause the gauge output to "limit" or saturate before reaching its full
20 mA output.

The minimum loop supply voltage is calculated from the formula:

= 7.5V + (20mA * total loop resistance).

If the loop voltage drops too low, the PDxAM will display the LOW LOOP icon. At this
time, all calibration functions are disabled.
The LCD is loop-powered. If no voltage is applied, or if the connector is removed, the
display will be blank.
