The ACI P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 is a 304L stainless steel gage pressure transducer from the ACI P51 Series, built for accurate, reliable measurement in commercial, industrial and process-control applications where performance is critical. The P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 is configured for a 3 PSI full-scale range and delivers a linear 0.5 to 4.5 VDC (3-Wire) output. It measures pressure relative to ambient atmospheric pressure through a vent port, ideal for applications where a vacuum reading is not required, with accuracy rated per the ACI P51 datasheet for the selected range.
At the core of the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 is a bulk micro-machined transducer with a welded 304L stainless steel diaphragm that contains no O-rings, making the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 compatible with virtually any gas or liquid that is compatible with 304L Stainless Steel — including refrigerants, glycol, motor oil, diesel, hydraulic fluid, brake fluid, water, waste water, hydrogen, nitrogen and air. The process connection is a 1/4"-18 NPT, 6.0 ID fitting in 304L Stainless Steel with a 7/8" Hex wrench flat, and the unit terminates in a Packard 3-pin connector; the mating cable harness (A/GP) is ordered separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 measure?
The P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 is a gage pressure transducer with a 3 PSI full-scale range. It measures pressure relative to ambient atmospheric pressure through a vent port, ideal for applications where a vacuum reading is not required. Proof pressure is 3X FS and burst pressure is 3X FS, giving substantial overpressure margin.
What output does the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 provide and how is it wired?
The P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 provides a 0.5 to 4.5 VDC (3-Wire) output. 3-Wire: Power (Red) to supply +, Ground (Black) to supply -, Vout (White) to the measurement +, Shield to earth ground.
What media is the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 compatible with?
The welded 304L stainless steel diaphragm of the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 contains no O-rings, so it is compatible with any gas or liquid compatible with 304L Stainless Steel — refrigerants, glycol, oils, water, waste water, hydrogen, nitrogen and air. See the 304L Chemical Compatibility Chart linked in the Documentation section for a full list of compatible media.
Does the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 need a pressure snubber?
ACI recommends a 1/4" stainless steel snubber (A/0.25" SNUB A/G for air and gas, or A/0.25" SNUB WTR for water and light oils) with the P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 to smooth out pressure spikes, surges and pulsations and to keep debris out of the sensor diaphragm. For steam service, an A/Syphon pigtail (90°, 180° or 270°) is also recommended.
Why is there a 10-piece minimum order quantity?
The P51-03-G-UC-P-4.5V-000-000 is a factory-direct ACI product configured to your selected pressure range, port, connector and output. ACI sets a minimum order quantity of ten (10) pieces on these built-to-order P51 SKUs. ZOT Supply passes this minimum through directly — orders below 10 units cannot be processed. If you need a different configuration, a different quantity, or have a project-specific question, contact ZOT Supply and we will work with you on the best path forward.
