Frequently Asked Questions

What is the required power supply for this 4-20mA pressure transducer?

The PR18-A16C operates on a standard two-wire 4-20mA loop, requiring a DC power supply typically between 12-36V connected in series with the loop. The current draw is proportional to the measured pressure, with 4mA representing the zero-pressure condition and 20mA representing full-scale (1.6 MPa).

How do I interface the 4-20mA output with a PLC or microcontroller?

To interface with a PLC, connect the transducer in series with the PLC's analog input module configured for current sensing, often via a precision resistor (e.g., 250 ohm) to convert the current to a voltage signal. For microcontrollers, an external signal conditioner or a current-to-voltage converter circuit is required to read the signal safely.

Is the G1/4" thread compatible with NPT or metric fittings?

The G1/4" thread is a British Standard Pipe parallel thread. It is not directly compatible with NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads without an adapter. For installation into NPT ports, a G1/4" to NPT adapter fitting is required to ensure a proper, leak-free seal.
