Issue:2 wire, 4-20mA transducer wiring.
Product line:
Altivar ATV61 and ATV71
Environment:
All models, all serial numbers
Cause:
A 2 wire transducer needs to be wired to the drive for a pressure feedback signal.
Resolution:
Wire the 2 wire transducer as follows:
The input to the transducer typically requires 10-30Vdc. This may be wired to the VFD terminal +24 or to an external power supply.
The output of the transducer is wired to the VFD terminal AI2.
There is no ground reference connection to the VFD COM terminal.
