pneumatic controls) is recommended for the high 

pressure line (marked as 

+

) connected to the air 

flow pickup.

The tubing from the air flow pickup to the control-

ler should not exceed three feet (0.914 m). Any 

length greater than this will degrade the flow 

sensing accuracy.

Use caution when removing tubing from a con-

nector. Always pull straight away from the con-

nector or use diagonal cutters to cut the edge of 

the tubing attached to the connector. Never 

remove by pulling at an angle.

PVB6438NS).

Wiring

All wiring must comply with applicable electrical codes and 

ordinances, or as specified on installation wiring diagrams. 

Controller wiring is terminated to the screw terminal blocks 

located on the top and the bottom of the device.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard.

Can cause severe injury, death or property 

damage.

Disconnect power supply before beginning wiring or 

making wiring connections, to prevent electrical shock 

or equipment damage.

NOTES:

For multiple controllers operating from a single 

transformer, the same side of the transformer 

secondary must be connected to the same power 

input terminal in each controller. Controller 

configurations will not necessarily be limited to 

three devices, but the total power draw, including 

accessories, cannot exceed 100 VA when 

powered by the same transformer (U.S. only). 

The earth ground terminal (terminal 3) must be 

connected to a verified earth ground for each 

controller in the group (see Fig. 9 on page 6).

All loads on the controller must be powered by the 

same transformer that powers the controller itself. 

A controller can use separate transformers for 

controller power and output power.

Keep the earth ground connection (terminal 3) 

wire run as short as possible.

Do not connect the universal input COM 

terminals, analog output COM terminals or the 

digital input/output COM terminals to earth 

ground.

The 24 Vac power from an energy limited Class II power 

source must be provided to the controller. To conform to Class 

II restrictions (U.S. only), the transformer must not be larger 

than 100 VA. 

Fig. 8 depicts a single controller using one transformer.

IMPORTANT

Power must be off prior to connecting to or removing 

connections from the 24 Vac power (24 Vac/24 Vac 

COM), earth ground (EGND), and 20 Vdc power (20 

Vdc) terminals.

IMPORTANT

Use the heaviest gauge wire available, up to 

14 AWG (2.0 sq mm), with a minimum of 18 AWG 

(1.0 sq mm), for all power and earth ground wiring.

Screw-type terminal blocks are designed to accept 

up to one 14 AWG (2.0 sq mm) conductor or up to 

two 18 AWG (1.0 sq mm) conductors. More than two 

wires that are 18 AWG (2.0 sq mm) can be con-

nected with a wire nut. Include a pigtail with this wire 

group and attach the pigtail to the terminal block.

IMPORTANT

Connect terminal 2, (the 24 Vac common [24 VAC 

COM] terminal) to earth ground (see Fig. 8).

NOTE: Unswitched 24 Vac power wiring can be run in the 

same conduit as the BACnet MS/TP cable.

Fig. 8. Power wiring details for one controller per 

transformer.

More than one controller can be powered by a single 

transformer. Fig. 9 shows power wiring details for multiple 

controllers.
