Description
1
The PT-400 series pressure transmitter offers reliability over a wide range of pressures and in
harsh industrial conditions and hazardous locations. It is certified intrinsically safe for hazardous
areas in the US, Canada, Europe and internationally by CSA, ATEX, and IECEx for Class 1, Zone 0
environments.
How To Read Your Label
2
Each label comes with a full model number, a part number, and a serial number. The model
number for the PT-400 will look something like this:
 SAMPLE: PT-400-L1-100-PSI-G-E5-5-P5-N0-M1-S0
The model number correlates with all the configurable options and tells you exactly what you have.
Compare the model number to the options on the datasheet to identify your exact configuration.
You can also call us with the model, part, or the serial number and we can help you.
The label also includes the pinout, as does this installation guide.
You'll also find all hazardous certification information on the label.

Mounting Instructions
5
The PT-400 should be installed in an area--indoors or outdoors--which meets the following
conditions:
• Ambient temperature between -40°F and 185°F (-40°C to 85°C)
• Relative humidity up to 100%
• Altitude up to 2000 meters (6560 feet)
• IEC-664-1 Conductive Pollution Degree 1 or 2
• IEC 61010-1 Measurement Category II
• No chemical corrosive to stainless steel (such as NH
• Ample space for maintenance and inspection
• Class II power supply
Mounting your pressure transducer is easy if you follow a few simple steps:
• Never over-tighten the sensor. This can compress the diaphragm, changing how it reacts
to pressure. In all cases, tighten the sensor as little as possible to create an adequate seal.
On straight threads, tighten only until you feel the o-ring compress - making sure you don't
damage or extrude the o-ring.
• Always use thread tape or sealant compound on tapered threads. Straight threads use an
o-ring. If using thread tape, wrap the tape in the opposite direction of the threads so it does
not unravel as you screw it into place. Unraveling can cause uneven distribution and seal
failure.
• Always start screwing in your sensor by hand to avoid cross-threading. Thread failure can be a
problem if you damage threads by over-tightening them or by crossing threads.

 IMPORTANT: PT-400 Modbus sensors use reversed Tx+/Tx- pins. When connecting to your
system, ensure continuity of Tx- to Tx- and Tx+ to Tx+, rather than A to A and B to B.
