Mounting
The 512 series transducers can be pipe, panel, or bracket
mounted in any position. Positions other than vertical will require
recalibration of the zero adjustment. For maximum output pres-
sure stability, the transducer should be mounted in a vibration-
free location or such that vibration is isolated to the X and Z axis
shown on the dimensional drawing (see Figure 2 on page 3).
Field Reversible
All transducers are calibrated at the factory for direct acting
operation but may be used in the reverse acting mode by revers-
ing the polarity of the signal leads and recalibrating. When cali-
brated for reverse acting applications, the transducers provide a
minimum of their full rated output pressure (i.e., 15, 17, or 27 psig)
upon input signal failure.
Mounting
Pipe:
Due to its light weight, the transducer may be supported using its
own plumbing on pipes used for air supply and output.
Panel (with access to rear of panel):
Attach transducer to panel using two 10-32 screws (supplied)
into the threaded holes on the back of the transducer.
2
Panel (with no access to rear of panel):
Attach bracket using tow 10-32 screws (supplied) into the
threaded holes on the back of the transducer. Use 10-32 screws
through holes in the bracket to mount transducer to panel.
Flowrite II Valve:
For mounting in the field, use mounting kit (optional accessory,
#512-005), which contains an adapator bracket (AB). First, attach
this AB to the yoke, then attach the mounting bracket (shown in
Figure 2-supplied with transducer) to the AB.
Mounting Notes:
1. Transducer may be mounted at any angle. See "Calibration."
2. Effect of external vibration can be kept at a minimum if unit
is mounted so that vibration is restricted to being along the X
and Z axes shown on the Dimensional Drawing, see figure 2.
Air Connections:
Supply
Connect air supply to 1/4 NPT port marked "IN" on base of unit.
Avoid getting pipe compound in air line and transducer.
Supply air must be instrument quality (filtered and dried).
