INTRODUCTION

The Low Pressure Transmitter can be used to measure positive, 

negative, or differential pressure in the ranges of 1"wc to 20"wc 

and 250 Pa to 5000 Pa. The highly accurate piezoresistive 

sensor is ideal for monitoring pressure of non-corrosive, non-

ionic working fluids such as clean dry air or other inert gases. It 

features field selectable output signal types for the most flexible 

application. Typical HVAC applications include monitoring of 

filter differential pressure or cleanroom pressure. The output 

signal is factory calibrated and temperature compensated for 

highest start-up accuracy and trouble-free operation.

BEFORE INSTALLATION

Read these installation instructions carefully before 

commissioning the Pressure Transmitter. Failure to follow 

these instructions may result in product damage. Do not use 

in an explosive or hazardous environment, with combustible 

or flammable gases, as safety or emergency stop devices or in 

any other application where failure of the product could result 

in personal injury. 

Use electrostatic discharge precautions during installation and do not exceed the 

device ratings.

MOUNTING

The transmitter mounts on a vertical surface using the two integrated mounting holes. Ensure there is 

enough space around the unit to connect the pressure tubing without kinking and to make the electrical 

connections, avoid locations with severe vibrations or excessive moisture. Drill a hole in the duct and 

insert so the probe point is facing into the air flow. The enclosure has a standard opening for a 1/2” 

conduit and may be installed with either conduit and a conduit coupler or a cable gland type fitting. See 

Figure 1. 

The two mounting holes will facilitate a #10 size screw (not supplied). See Figure 1.

The enclosure has a hinged cover with a latch.  Open the cover 

by pulling slightly on the latch on the right side of the enclosure 

and at the same time pulling on the cover, as illustrated in Figure 

2.

A 1/2" NPT threaded connection hole is provided on the bottom 

side of the enclosure. Screw the EMT connector or cable gland 

connector in until tight. See Figure 3. It is recommended that 

weatherproof conduit or cable gland fittings be used. The F style 

enclosure includes 1/2" NPT to M16 thread adapter and cable 

gland fitting. See Figure 3.

Make wiring connections as per "Wiring" illustrations on page 2.

Two security screws are provided which can be installed to 

help secure the cover once settings and wiring connections are 

complete. See Figure 4.
