TRANSDUCER

INSTALLATION

The Model 865 Pressure Transducer is a compact

instrument with an LCD Display. It is used for

measuring and controlling the many different media

that are compatible with our sensing element.

Positive, negative, and differential pressures can be

measured in ranges from 0-0.5” WC to 0-15 PSI with

four standard outputs: 1-5VDC, 1-6VDC, 1-10VDC

and 4-20mA. Split ranges and custom outputs are also

available.

NSTALLATION

1. Location- The model 865 pressure transducer

should be placed in as clean, dry and vibration free a

location as possible.
2. Pressure Connections- The 865 pressure

transducer uses 2 barbed fittings for use with 1/8” ID

vinyl or rubber tubing. Attach tubing from positive

pressure or higher pressure source to port marked

High (P1) and lower or negative pressure to opposite

port

(P2). Arrange tubing to minimize stress on

connections. If possible, mount with ports facing

down to aid in moisture drainage.
Note: When removing tubing care should be used to

avoid breaking the ports. In some cases the tubing

should be cut off, rather than pulled off, especially if

stiff tubing is being used.
3. Mounting- Attach the Model 865 transducer to

the mounting surface using 2 fasteners inserted

through the two mounting holes located on either the

side mounting flanges, or the holes at the top of the

case.

Do not over-tighten.

ONNECTIONS

All electrical connections to the 865 series transducer

are made to the pluggable screw terminal block. The

block is coded as follows.
1)”+IN ” = Supply Positive,
2) “ COM “ = Common Supply & Signal Negative.
3) “ +OUT“ = Signal Out(positive).
An external power supply (Vs) delivering

12 - 24 VDC or 24VAC with a minimum of 40mA

output is required to drive the unit. However, if the

transducer has a 1-10VDC output, or a 4-20mA

output to drive a 500 ohm load, a minimum of

18VDC/24VAC is required.

CAUTION:

Do not exceed specified

supply voltage. Do not apply voltage to

“+OUT” terminal as permanent

damage will occur.

VDC

865 Series Pressure transducers with a 4-20mA

current output can be easily adapted to controllers

requiring 1-5 VDC input. Insert a 250 ohm resistor

between the “+” and “-” controller input terminals.

This will safely convert the 4-20mA signal to 1-

5VDC.

O

FFSET

The offset of the 865 series transducer is factory set. If

it should need adjustment upon arrival, the offset pot

is located next to the ports on the end of the unit.

With the transducer installed and no pressure applied

place a meter in series with the negative “-“ and the

ground. Turn offset adjusting pot to desired reading.
