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.
