Pressure controllers and gauges
15 March, 2009 | CMC Technologies Pty Ltd
The Series A3 digital differential pressure controller is a microprocessor-based pressure controller for positive, negative and differential pressure as well as velocity and flow. The Series A3 differential pressure controller includes two 8A SPDT relays and an associated software package that allows full configuration of variables such as set points, dead band, engineering units and flow coefficients. The programming is done from a user-friendly menu on the LCD or uploaded using an Opti Link programming key. The LCD also displays the exact set points or other user-defined variables during normal operation. The menu structure can be customised by moving variables to different menu levels to accommodate many applications.
