SUMMARY
This discussion centers on connecting a pressure transducer output to a pressure gauge in an experimental setup. The user initially intended to utilize a pressure transducer with a 4-20 mA output, where 4 mA corresponds to 0 psig and 20 mA corresponds to the maximum pressure. However, the user decided to simplify the setup by opting for a pressure gauge instead of purchasing a transducer. Guidance is sought on how to connect the pressure gauge without redoing the entire setup.
