• Remove cover and carefully remove the display to access the terminal strip,

take care not to mishandle the display and associated electronics.

• Turn display over to expose terminal strip, make positive and negative connec-

tions; insert wire equal to the recommended strip length (0.25˝).

• After completing connections, align the retaining clips of the display with the

housing’s notches and carefully place into the housing. Be sure that the inter-
nal sensor ribbon cable does not cross the power supply lines just installed.

• Be sure to properly tighten the sealing grommet when using the Cable Gland

before applying tension to the cable; the cable gland provides strain relief and
environmental sealing.

• Tighten GC52 cover to maintain environmental rating.

• Connect to power source and receiver, than apply power to confirm correct

wiring.

• Power Supply Requirements: Although the 4-20mA signal can travel over long

distances, a very common issue to arise involves inadequate power at the
pressure transmitter – this results in voltage drop across the loop. Be sure to
review the accompanying table to determine whether the 12-36Vdc has been
received at the pressure transmitter.
