Digital Differential Pressure Transmitter
Congratulations for the purchase of your new PF4
transmitter. Please read these short instructions
carefully before installing the device.
General Description
These short instructions are limited to a descrip-
tion of the main functions and installation of
the device. The detailed instruction manual can
be found on the internet at:
www.rotronic.com
Commissioning
The device was adjusted in our factory per the accompanying certifi cate and therefore does not
need to be checked or readjusted during installation. After installation the device must be zeroed
by connecting the two pressure connections and the absolute air pressure (QFE) of the environs
entered into the device.

Caution: Wrong supply voltages and excessively high loading of the outputs can
damage the transmitter.
Mounting with Drill Template
Drill the necessary holes using the drill template drawn
on the packaging. Then insert the plugs delivered with the
device and mount the transmitter with the screws.
Mounting on DIN Top-Hat Rail
The transmitter can be mounted directly on a TS35 DIN top-hat
rail with the AC5002 mounting kit (order separately). For this,
the DIN holders are screwed directly on to the pre-drilled holes
in the transmitter.

Scaling / Adjustment / Firmware Update
The following settings can be changed using the HW4 software and a link to your computer per
AC3006 service cable:
• output scale
• adjustment
• fi rmware update
IMPORTANT
The PF4 can just be adjustet with AC3006 cable and external power supply.
You can fi nd a detailed description in the manual that you can download from our web site at
www.rotronic.com.
Periodic Calibration of the Transmitter
Both the differential pressure sensor and the corresponding electronics are very stable and
do not normally need to be changed or calibrated after factory calibration. For maximum
accuracy we recommend regular calibration of the device.
Caution
Any movement of the sensor or the pipes during calibration and adjustment, will result in
deviated values.
