Wiring
Shielded cable with 16 to 22AWG conductors is recommended. Each WPR2-300 unit can be configured to
three output modes: 4-20mA, 0-5V and 0-10V. Use the Wiring Connections table below to determine the proper
wiring for your application. See Figure 1 below for Output Mode and Output Signal switch positions.
Note: The WPR2 units are shipped from the factory set up with a 0-10 VDC output.

AUTO ZERO
The WPR2-300 unit should be “ZEROED” before the pressure transducers are installed on the pipes.
The Auto zero button and remote zero are both used to cancel out the offsets caused by installation and sensor
drift.
NOTE: Make sure a minimum of 10 minutes of warm-up time before adjustment to the ZERO.
The Auto Zero adjustment should only be performed with NO pressure applied to both sensors.
Shut off your main pressure valve and open a shutoff valve with hose drain to equalize the pressure in
the line to your atmosphere.
Remove the sensors from the system to remove pressure from each sensor to achieve equal pressure.
Push “ZERO” button or “SHORT ZERO PIN” for 2 seconds to “COM PIN” before installation or
when it is necessary.
For units with LCD display:
“ZERO” icon will be on when the push button is released. If auto zero is successful, “ZERO” icon will flash
twice, otherwise “ERROR” and “OVR” icons will flash twice.
Pressure Connections
The WPR2-300 Series have 1/4"-18NPT male fittings. The sensors are labeled “SENSOR HIGH” and “SENSOR
LOW”; MAKE SURE THE SENSORS ARE WIRED TO THE CORRESPONDING TERMINAL BLOCK
INSIDE THE HOUSING. Otherwise ACI will not guarantee the accuracy specifications. DO NOT REPLACE
SENSORS WITH ANY OTHER SENSORS. THE WPR2-300 UNITS ARE CALIBRATED WITH THE
HIGH AND LOW SENSORS SUPPLIED WITH THE UNIT.
All WPR2-300 units can handle a proof pressure of 600 psi for both HIGH and LOW pressure sensors. If after
connecting the pipe, the unit outputs out-of-range diagnostic signal OVR on display only, turn off the unit,
disconnect the pipe or shut down the valves immediately and check the pressure input with a gauge or other test
instrument.

Pressure Snubbers are optional with each WPR2-300 unit. The Pressure Snubber is used to dampen pressure
surges. A pigtail siphon should be used to lower the media temperature below 230°F (110°C) to prevent damage
to the pressure sensor.

INPUT RANGE ADJUSTMENT
DO NOT SWITCH PRESSURE RANGE AND OUTPUT MODE WHEN POWER IS ON.
o MAKE SURE POWER TO THE UNIT IS OFF. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL NOT ALLOW ANY NEW
SWITCH SETTINGS TO TAKE PLACE.
CHOOSE DIFFERENTIAL RANGE BASED ON THE EXPECTED DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE IN YOUR
APPLICATION.
o MOVE SWITCHES TO THE CORRECT POSITIONS AND THEN POWER ON THE TRANSMITTER.
MAXIMUM LINE PRESSURE IS 300 PSI FOR A/WPR2-300.
The WPR2-300 can operate in either unidirectional mode (0 – X psid) or bidirectional mode (± X psid). The unit
will be set at unidirectional mode after factory calibration.

Advanced Features
For units with LCD display:
“ERROR” icon will be on when differential pressure is out of range.
“OVR” icon will be on when gage pressure is out of range on either the high or low port.
Trouble Shooting
Problem Trouble Shooting Steps
“ERROR” icon on Display will be on
when differential pressure is out of range.
The differential pressure could be lower
or higher than the selected range.
“OVR” icon on Display will be on when
the input pressure is > than 300 psi.
Check pressure input with a gauge or
other test instrument.
1. Verify the HIGH Sensor Voltage is between
0.5 VDC (0 psi) and 4.5 VDC (100 psi)
When measuring from the HIGH Sensor terminal
Block “GND” to “OUT”. If out of range call ACI for
Technical support.
2. Verify the LOW Sensor Voltage is between
0.5 VDC (0 psi) and 4.5 VDC (100 psi)
When measuring from the LOW Sensor terminal
Block “GND” to “OUT”. If out of range call ACI for
Technical support.
3. Verify in Uni-Directional Mode that the HIGH Sensor
Voltage is ≥ the LOW Sensor Voltage. If voltage is
anything different call ACI for Technical support.
Output reading @ 4mA or 0 VDC
all the time
1. Verify proper Supply Voltage at the transducer meets the
Product Specifications.
2. Verify 5 VDC Reference voltage across “VIN” to “GND”
terminals for both the HIGH & LOW Sensor
terminal blocks. If voltage is anything different than
5VDC call ACI for Technical support.
Erroneous Readings 1. Bleed Air from System.
2. Repeat the Auto Zero calibration on page 2.
