Installation
1.
Pick a position and mount the housing using the
housing holes as a template. Self-drilling
screws are supplied with the unit. If the self-
drilling feature is not being used, drill a 1/8-inch
diameter pilot hole.
2.
Snap in the Electric-Pneumatic Transducer(s).
See Figure 1 for single housing and Figure 2 for
housing for up to three Electric-Pneumatic
Transducers.
Figure 1. Housing for One Electric-Pneumatic
Transducer.
3.
Wire as shown in Figure 3.
4.
Move the shunt to set the desired input signal.
See Figure 3.
5.
Connect the pneumatic tubing. See Figure 3.
NOTE:
A clean, dry air supply is required for
the EP Transducers. A filter such as
Powers™ P/N 908-033 is
recommended for the branch supply
air line.
6. Both electric-pneumatic transducer housings will
accept gauges such as the Powers 1-1/2 inch
analog receiver gauges (P/N 142-373). Knock-
outs are provided on the housing to
accommodate gauges. See Figures 1 and 2.
The installation is now complete.
