1 Description
Type 4260/62/64A series uses a piezoresistive sensing
element that changes resistance with changing pressure.
The change in resistance from a four arm Wheatstone
bridge is conditioned and an electrical signal proportion-
al to pressure is supplied in either mV, V or mA outputs,
depending upon model type.
2 Pressure Media
The pressure cavity for a gauge, sealed gauge or ab-
solute sensor is constructed of a hermetically sealed
assembly of 316L Stainless Steel. Fluids and gases must
be compatible with 316L Stainless Steel.
For differential sensors, the reference port material is 316
SST, Gold plated Kovar, Silicon, Pyrex and Epoxy.
3 Mounting
Type 4260/62/64A series is available with many types
of pressure ports. Please pay attention to the following:
• Ensure all sealing surfaces are clean, free of debris and
indents.
• Do not exceed a tightening torque of 11.1 lbf-ft
(15 Nm).
• Refer to and follow any practices specified in the
selected pressure ports standard.
• Some sensors are supplied with an elastomeric seal
for customer convenience. Refer to the pressure port
standard for use or consult with the factory.

4 Rated Pressure
Do not exceed the stated working pressure (marked as
Max WP on sensor body). Take particular care with ap-
plications where pressure “spikes” or “hammers” may
be present. Type 4260/62/64A series has high overpres-
sure and pressure transient protection but the energy
content of spikes can be particularly damaging. Please
consult the factory with questions.
5 Electrical Output
Refer to the data sheet for the electrical output options
and wiring configurations. The output and wiring con-
figurations are also marked on the body of the sensor
and the calibration data sheet, if this option is ordered.
6 Sensor Excitation
Refer to the data sheet for the range of power supply
voltages depending upon electrical output. The sensor
excitation is also marked on the body of the sensor.
7 Hazardous Area Installation
Some models of Type 4260/62/64A series are approved
for use in Hazardous Area locations. It is imperative that
the installation instructions for the particular Hazardous
area certification are followed.
8 General Safety
Trapped pressure is a potential safety hazard. Never re-
move or install a pressure sensor from a pressurized pipe
or vessel.
The transducer working detail will include the Hazardous area
marking if it has been ordered. Refer to data sheet for order-
ing code options. The relevant declaration of conformity’s are
contained within this booklet. Transducers without Hazard-
ous area marking are not allowed to be used in Hazardous
areas.

Hazardous Area Installation
Installation and Handling for Safe Use: The 426XA Series, Zone 0
Intrinsically Safe and Zone 2 Non-Incendive, pressure sensors comply
with the Essential Health and Safety requirements specified in EC
Directive 2014/34/EU. Installation must be performed in compliance
with the Electrical Safety Standards applicable in the country of end
use. The wiring terminations are marked on the sensor body. Com-
pleted sensors will withstand a test voltage of 500 VAC applied be-
tween all input connections and frame for 1 minute. For installation
in Canada and North America refer to control drawing 100.307.971
enclosed in this booklet.
Cleaning: The sensor may be cleaned using a clean “lint free” cloth
to remove surface debris. Ensure all electrical connections and pres-
sure sealing surfaces remain free from debris. Exposed parts are
Stainless Steel except for plastic plugs and cables.
Repair: The 426XA Intrinsically safe and non-incendive sensors are
sealed at the factory and are not intended for site adjustment or
repair by the end user.
Cable: Where used the cable shield is isolated from the sensor frame
and the rated temperature is 80 °C (175 °F) minimum.
Purpose: The sensors detailed in table 2 are intended for use in Zone
0, Intrinsically Safe, Hazardous (Classified) Areas with a suitable Ze-
ner barrier matching the entity parameters detailed in table 1, by
output version. For Zone 2 the same entity parameters apply but use
of a Zener barrier is not required. Refer to installation diagram for
layout details.
Description: The 426XA Series Pressure Sensors provide either a
pressure to voltage or pressure to current conversion. Table 1 details
the output version and entity parameters with supply voltage limits.

dent on pressure range. The millivolt level signal is proportional to
pressure input.

4-20 mA version layout
4-20 mA Version: This is a 2-wire loop powered sensor providing
a pressure to current conversion. The sensor output signal may be
installed with a “load” resistor for measurement of the voltage across
the resistor or with a mA current meter in the loop.
Resistor RLselection is limited by the minimum required voltage (VS)
at the terminals of the sensor. Where: VS= (0.02 x RL) + 9 VDC.
The VSvoltage supply limits are defined in table 1.

Voltage version layout
Voltage Version: These are 3 or 4-wire low power sensors providing
a pressure to voltage conversion. The specific option codes are listed
in Table 3.
Code Output Type Code Output Type
F 1 to 6 VDC, 3-wire R 0 to 10 VDC, 4-wire
I 0.5 to 4.5 VDC, 3-wire U -5 to +5 VDC, 4-wire
L 0.1 to 5 VDC, 3-wire X 0 to 5 VDC, 4-wire
Table 3: Option codes
The voltage across the positive output and negative output (4-wire)
or negative output/negative supply (3-wire), can be directly mea-
sured using a high impedance voltmeter and the signal is propor-
tional to pressure input.
For 3-wire sensors the negative supply and negative output are con-
nected internally as indicated by the dotted horizontal line in the
diagram below. The VSsupply limits are defined in table 1.
