Digihelic® 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.
The model configurator above works with INWC pressure units (inch of water column, inH₂O). 1 INWC = 249.1 Pa, see table below.
| RANGES (conversion of INWC [inH₂O] to Pa/kPa) | ||
| INWC | Pa | kPa |
| 0,100 | 24,91 | |
| 0,250 | 62,27 | |
| 0,500 | 124,5 | 0,1245 |
| 1,000 | 249,1 | 0,2491 |
| 2,500 | 622,7 | 0,6227 |
| 5,000 | 1245 | 1,245 |
| 10,00 | 2491 | 2,491 |
| 25,00 | 6227 | 6,227 |
| 50,00 | 12,45 | |
| 100,0 | 24,91 | |
Note: in the device menu you can select the following display units - Pa, kPa, hPa, mBar, PSI, INWC, FTWC, MMWC, CMWC, INHG, MMHG, OZIN

Pressure Transducers and Transmitters
A pressure transducer, often called a pressure transmitter, is a sensor that converts pressure into an analog electrical signal. Although there are various types of transducers, one of the most common is the strain-gage wheatstone bridge pressure transducer.
The conversion of pressure into an electrical signal is achieved by the physical deformation of strain gages which are bonded into the diaphragm of the pressure transducer and wired into a wheatstone bridge configuration. Pressure applied to the transducer produces a deflection of the diaphragm which introduces strain to the gages. The strain will produce an electrical resistance change proportional to the pressure...
