Model HX-P420

The 4 to 20 mA output transducer is a 2-wire, loop pow ered 
de vice. The transducer,  pow er supply, and cur rent monitor 
must be con nect ed in series as illustrated above.
The minimum supply voltage is a function of total loop resis-
tance. It may be calculated us ing the formula:
 

V(Min.)= (0.02 x Load Res.) + 9 VDC

It may also be determined from the ac com pa ny ing graph, 
shown at right.
When mounting, insure that the baseplate of the transducer 
is grounded to earth ground.  For best noise immunity, use 
twisted pair 

mum settings. Ex tend the trans duc er's cable (on an gu lar posi-
tion transducers, ro tate shaft) to the desired zero po si tion (must 
be with in 0% to 30% of range).  Adjust the 

Zero 

con trol so that  

the  output cur rent is 4 mA. Then extend the ca ble (on angular 
position trans duc ers, ro tate shaft) to the de sired max i mum posi-
tion (must be within 80% to 100% of range).  Ad just the

readjust if nec es sary.
