K1 Series 100 psi Transducer
The Ashcroft K17M0242C1 is a 4 to 20mA DC pressure transmitter built for 0 to 100 psi measurement. It carries a +/-1 percent full-scale accuracy rating and operates on 10 to 36V DC supply. A NEMA 4X and IP67 enclosure protects the electronics in harsh environments.
Two-Wire 4 to 20mA Loop Upgrade
This model replaces legacy gauges or switches that lack continuous electronic output. The two-wire loop-powered design simplifies wiring runs compared to three or four-wire alternatives. The jump is worth it when a control system requires a reliable current signal over long cable distances.
Process Engineers and Maintenance Teams
It suits technicians installing permanent monitoring on hydraulic or pneumatic lines with 1/4 in male NPT ports. Operators needing a different pressure range, a flush diaphragm, or a digital protocol such as HART should look at other series. Buyers requiring a sanitary clamp connection will need a different process fitting.

Questions about this item
What size NPT thread does the 1/4 in male process connection need?
The transducer uses a 1/4 in male NPT process connection; match the female port to that size and thread type for a proper seal.
How should the two-wire 4 to 20mA loop be wired to avoid a reversed polarity error?
Connect the positive supply to one lead and the return to the other; the transmitter operates on 10 to 36V DC and will not function if the loop polarity is reversed.
When should the unit be replaced if the output drifts beyond the stated accuracy?
The specification lists accuracy as +/-1 percent of full scale; if calibration checks show deviation greater than that, plan replacement.
