CAUTION: Over-ranging the Zero Screw can
damage unit.
Forward Acting Mode Adjustment
1. Connect the input signal to the transducer as
shown in Figure 8.
Repeat steps 2-3 until the desired output range
is obtained. For detailed information, see
Figure 1 “T6100 Calibration Configuration.”
• Pneumatic Supply capable of delivering up to
150 psig.
•Current Supply capable of delivering up to 60 mA.
•
Pressure Gage capable of a digital readout up to 50
psig with an accuracy of .1%.
• Digital Volt Meter capable of a readout up to 60 mA
with an accuracy of .02%.

2. Apply the minimum input signal and adjust
the Zero screw for minimum output pressure.
Turn screwclockwise to increase pressure and
counterclock-wise to decrease pressure.
Apply the maximum input signal and adjust the
Span screw for maximum output pressure.
Turn screw clockwise to increase pressure and
counterclock-wise to decrease pressure.
• Calibration-Span

Electric Connection
Make connections as shown in Figure 8.
Pneumatic Connection
NOTE: Oil free air is required. Use a filter to remove dirt and
liquid in the air line ahead of the transducer. If an air
line lubricator is used, it MUST be located down-
stream to avoid interference with transducer perfor-
mance.
The user is responsible for insuring that the environ-
ment in which the unit will be installed and the
operatinggasarecompatiblewiththematerialsinthe

Shut off the valve that is supplying air to transducer.
It is not necessary to remove the Transducer from
the air line.
Remove the Orifice Assembly from the unit. For
detailed information see Figure 1 “T6100 Calibration
Configuration on page 1.
Clean with alcohol and dry with compressed air.
To clean the Orifice, use the following procedure:
MAINTENANCE
Parts must be completely dry before reassembling.
If the standard maintenance procedure does not
correct the trouble, install the appropriate Service
Kit below:
20781-1
Service Kits also include Gasket, O-Rings, and
Membranes to replace "W" Option product.

WARNING:
SPLIT RANGE OPERATION
All units have the capability to be split ranged or set for any
output in the range as long as the Output Span is equal to
or greater than the minimum Span.
