DXM2 Service & Application Notes
Pressure Switches
All pressure switches are designed to be normally closed
during normal operating conditions, and to open upon fault.
Condensate Sensor – The Condensate Sensor input will
fault upon sensing impedance less than 100,000 Ohms for
30 continuous seconds. The recommended design uses
a single wire terminated with a male 1/4" quick connect
located in the drain pan at desired trip level. Upon a high
condensate level the water will short between the air coil
and the quick connect producing a resistance less than
100,000 Ohms. Since condensate is free of impurities,
it has no conductivity. Only the impurities from the drain
pan and coil dust or dirt create the conductance. A second
ground wire with appropriate terminal to the drain pan can
be used with the control to replace the air coil ground path.
The Condensate Sensor can also essentially be any open
contact that closes upon a fault condition.
Thermistor Temperature Sensors – The thermistors used
with the DXM2 are NTC (negative temperature coeffi cient)
type. Table 7 shows the replacement part numbers for the
LT1 and LT2 thermistors. The sensors have a 1% tolerance
and follow the characteristics shown in Table 8. Table 9
shows the nominal resistance at any given temperature
and can be used for fi eld service reference. The sensor will
use a minimum of 24 awg wire.
