Series DHC Digihelic® Differential Pressure Controller
3-in-1 Differential Pressure Controller
The Series DHC Digihelic® Differential Pressure Controller is a 3-in-1 instrument possessing a digital display gage, control relay switches, and a transmitter with both current and voltage outputs. Combining these 3 features allows the reduction of several instruments with one product, saving inventory, installation time, and cost. The Series DHC Digihelic® differential pressure controller is the ideal instrument for pressure, velocity, and volumetric flow applications reading in several commonly used engineering units with optional unidirectional or bidirectional ranges. These units achieve a 1.5% or better accuracy on extremely low ranges, and 0.5% accuracy for ranges at or above 1 in w.c. Calibration can be performed in the field, making maintaining its accuracy more manageable. Additionally, the Series DHC Digihelic® differential pressure controller includes 2 SPDT control relays with adjustable deadbands. Programming the unit is simple using the built-in menu. With scalable 4-20 mA, selectable voltage process outputs, and selectable Modbus® or BACnet communication, this controller can easily fit into your application.
