Series DH Digihelic Differential Pressure Controller

Brand: Dwyer Instruments, LLC

The Series DH Digihelic® Differential Pressure Controller is a 3-in-1 instrument possessing a digital display gauge, control relay switches, and a transmitter with current output.

The Digihelic® Controller is the ideal instrument for pressure, velocity and flow applications, achieving a 0.5% full scale accuracy on ranges from 0.25 to 100 inches WC. 

The Digihelic® controller allows the selection of pressure, velocity or volumetric flow operation in several commonly used engineering units. Two SPDT control relays with adjustable dead bands are provided along with a scalable 4-20 mA process output. 

The Series DH provides extreme flexibility in power usage by allowing 120/220 Vac and also 24 Vdc power which is often used in control panels. 

Programming is Easy Using the Menu Key to Access 5 Simplified Menus Which Provide Access to:
  • Security level; selection of pressure, velocity or flow operation; selection of engineering units;
  • K-factor for use with flow sensors; rectangular or circular duct for inputting area in flow applications;
  • Set point control or set point and alarm operation;
  • Alarm operation as a high, low or high/low alarm; automatic or manual alarm reset; alarm delay;
  • View peak and valley process readings; digital damping for smoothing erratic process applications;
  • Scaling the 4-20 mA process output to fit your application’s range;
  • Modbus® communications; and field calibration.

With all this packed into one product it is easy to see why the Digihelic® controller is the only instrument you will need for all your pressure applications.
Features
