INSTALLATION
The Model 278 AC Current Transducer requires an 8-
pin mounting socket, such as the Time Mark Model
51X120.
The base connecting diagram on the unit shows the pin
connection numbers for the 115 volt power, the AC
Current input, and the DC Current Out.
Connect the appropriate wiring to the socket as required
(See the Typical Application diagram).
PIN DRAWING
NOTE: When installing the Model 278 Transducer in
areas of high humidity or contamination, it is
recommended that the base area and all exposed metal
parts of the socket be coated liberally with a good
quality silicon grease, such as Dow Corning DC-4 or
DC-4X. Insert the unit into the socket and wipe off
excess grease around the base. This will prevent the
entrance of moisture and other contaminates into the
base and socket areas.
