GENERAL INFORMATION
Two models of the PTP accept either a 3 to 15 or 3
to 30 psig pneumatic pressure input and convert
it to one of four proportional analog output
ranges of 1-5, 2-10, 3-15 VDC or 4-20 mA which are
jumper shunt selectable. A plugged gauge port is
provided in the aluminum manifold for local
mechanical indication via an optional 0 to 30 psi
gauge. Custom calibration is available upon
request for an additional charge. This will speed
up installation time for the end user.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Circuit board may be mounted in any position. If
circuit board slides out of snap track, a
non-conductive “stop”may be required. Use only
ngers to remove board from snap track. Slide
out of snap track or push against side of snap
track and lift that side of the circuit board to
remove. Do not flex board or use tools.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
PRECAUTIONS
• Remove power before wiring. Never
connect or disconnect wiring with power
applied.
• When using a shielded cable, ground the
shield only at the controller end. Grounding
both ends can cause a ground loop.
• It is recommended you use an isolated
UL-listed class 2 transformer when powering
the unit with 24 VAC. Failure to wire the
devices with the correct polarity when
sharing transformers may result in damage
to any device powered by the shared
transformer.
• If the 24 VDC or 24VAC power is shared
with devices that have coils such as relays,
solenoids, or other inductors, each coil must
have an MOV, DC/AC Transorb, Transient
Voltage Suppressor (ACI Part: 142583), or
diode placed across the coil or inductor. The
cathode, or banded side of the DC Transorb
or diode, connects to the positive side of the
power supply. Without these snubbers, coils
produce very large voltage spikes when
de-energizing that can cause malfunction or
destruction of electronic circuits.
• All wiring must comply with all local and
National Electric Codes.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)
The gauge port will accept a miniature 1/8" FNPT back-ported pressure gauge to allow direct reading of
branch line pressure. The gauge should be sealed with Teon sealing tape. A backup wrench should be
used to hold the manifold. ADJUSTMENT OF INSTALLED GAUGES. If installation requires adjustment of the
gauge for proper reading of the face, turn the gauge no more than 1/2 turn in either direction. O rings in
the bottom of the gauge port will allow this without leakage.
The surface between the manifold and pressure transducer is a pressure seal. Do NOT stress the circuit
board or allow the manifold to move. Hold the manifold in one hand while installing pneumatic tubing
onto the tting and use care when removing tubing to avoid damaging tting or moving manifold.
SETUP
With power o, select jumper position on jumper block J5 corresponding to the output required (see
Figure 3).
CHECKOUT
Apply power to terminals "PWR" (+) and ( - ). The PTP will begin
tracking and responding to the pressure input signal instantly.
Apply minimum and maximum pressure (or vacuum) and
measure response. Check test meter for proper scale selection
and correct lead connection. Response between the minimum
and maximum values will be linear, therefore software
algorithms should be easy to derive.
