General Description

The PDD series digital pressure switch integrates the latest solid state sensing technology into a very versatile, simple to operate package. Programming features include setpoint, reset point, window mode, pulsation dampening, switch logic, zero (tare) adjustment and user settable lockout code. The ceramic sensing system and solid state transistor switch ensure an exceptionally long cycle life with virtually no calibration drift. These features along with the compact, robust stainless steel package make the PDD an ideal choice for OEM applications.

Electrical Installation

The following electrical installation instructions and precautions must followed to insure proper switch and analog output operation. Failure to follow these instructions may result in irreparable damage to the switch:

  1. The unit employs an open collector NPN or PNP transistor switch. To verify which model you are installing check the model number codes in Section 2.0, Specifications. When the PNP version activates, it connects the DC supply voltage to the switch output pin. When the NPN version activates, it connects the DC ground to the switch output pin.
  2. This switch can only switch fixed polarity DC loads with a maximum current draw of 300 mA To switch higher current DC loads or AC loads use an appropriately sized relay.
  3. In order to minimize electromagnetic noise pickup, a jacketed instrument and control cable with shield should be used. The shield should be connected to the power system earth ground at one end of the cable only.
