MINCO TemptranTM
4-20 mA Current Transmitter
with wire leads or terminal block connections

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
Ambient temperature of the Temptran should stay between 0 and 50 °C (32
and 122 °F). Mount near the RTD with a #6 machine or #8 self-tapping screw.
Connect the Temptran as shown, observing +/- polarity of the current loop.
Maximum DC supply voltage = 35 VDC. The RTD connections have no polarity.
For the RTD, good connections are a must; a few ohms of resistance in the
connection can cause an error of several degrees.
The Temptran has been factory-calibrated for its marked temperature range or
else for a specific RTD. Do not change its zero and span adjustments.

How It Works
The Temptran converts an RTD's (resistance temperature detector's) resistance
signal into a current proportional to the RTD's temperature. The current changes
according to the range marked on the Temptran: 4 mA at the lowest temperature
of the range, rising to 20 mA at the top of the range. The leads that supply
power also carry the current signal.
