Precautions

General

Warning:

Disconnect the power supply (line power) before installation to prevent possible 
electrical shock and equipment damage.

Make all connections in accordance with the wiring diagram and in accordance with 
national and local electrical codes. Use copper conductors only. 

Do not exceed the ratings of the device(s).

Supply Air

Caution:

Particles in the air supply larger than 0.03 microns (4 mPa) may adversely affect the 
reliability and life of the transducer. If air supply is questionable, install a K-335 in line 
air filter between the main air supply and the main air port of the device.

A refrigerated air dryer, particulate filter, and coalescing filter should provide a quality 
air supply (refer to EN-123, F-22516). 

Compressor oil must be non-paraffin mineral base or naphtha base. Synthetic base 
oils will destroy pneumatic controls and void the warranty.

Location

Caution:

NEMA Type 1 devices are intended for indoor use primarily to provide a degree of 
protection against contact with the enclosed equipment.

Do not locate unit in areas subject to incidental contact, vibration, severe mechanical 
shock, excessive moisture, or corrosive fumes.

Mounting

Refer to Figure-5  for mounting dimensions.

Caution: The CP-8551 and CP-8552 transducers must be mounted within 5

°

 of the 

upright position. (Refer to "UP" arrow on printed circuit board.)

1. Remove transducer cover by grasping both sides of cover and pulling gently.

2. Select the mounting location.

3. Rail mount transducer on a vertical surface by snapping to a 35 mm DIN mounting rail 

(not provided) or wall mount with two screws (not provided). Multiple units can be 
mounted side by side on a DIN mounting rail. 

4. Pull wires through bottom of enclosure and make necessary connections.

5. Position wires to clear the wiring access hole in the cover.

6. Use a small plastic wire tie to secure the wires to the strain relief tab provided on the 

mounting base to the left of the wiring terminations (Figure-4 ).

7. Replace cover and make pneumatic connections.

Wiring

Use 16 to 22 AWG wire for Class II wiring terminals. Use flexible 1/4" O.D. tubing for main 
and branch male pneumatic connections.
