Transmitter Supply Voltage
Selection (P+, P-)
All meters, including models equipped with the
12-24 VDC power option, are shipped from the factory
configured to provide 24 VDC power for the
transmitter or sensor.
If the transmitter requires 5 or 10 VDC excitation, the
internal jumper J4 must be configured accordingly.
To access the voltage selection jumper:
1. Remove all the wiring connectors.
2. Unscrew the back cover.
3. Slide out the back cover by about 1 inch.
4. Configure the J4 jumper, located behind the
input signal connector, for the desired
excitation voltage as shown.

Connections
All connections are made to removable screw
terminal connectors located at the rear of the
meter.
•
Use copper wire with 60°C or 60/75°C insulation
for all line voltage connections. Observe all safety
regulations. Electrical wiring should be performed
in accordance with all applicable national, state,
and local codes to prevent damage to the meter
and ensure personnel safety.
•
Observe all safety regulations. Electrical wiring
should be performed in accordance with all
agency requirements and applicable national,
state, and local codes to prevent damage to the
meter and ensure personnel safety.
•
Static electricity can damage sensitive
components.
•
Observe safe handling precautions for
static-sensitive components.
•
Use proper grounding procedures/codes.
•
If the instrument is installed in a high voltage
environment and a fault or installation error
occurs, high voltage may be present on any lead
or terminal.
•
Follow all fusing and wiring precautions
requirements for the instrument integrated to the
PD8 Series model number being connected.
To access the connectors, remove the enclosure
cover and unscrew the two captive screws that
fasten the electronics module. Signal connections
are made to de-pluggable connectors on the
back of the electronics module.
Some connectors may be provided already
connected. These connections are required for proper
operation of the ProtEX-MAX, and should not be
removed unless instructed to by this manual.
Wires marked as being used for testing purposes
should be removed.
Grounding connections are made to the two ground
screws provided on the base
– one internal and one
external.
After all connections have been completed and
verified, apply power to the unit.
Required & Factory Wired
