INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing an HK Instruments DPT series differential
pressure transmitter. The DPT series is intended for use in commer-
cial environments. It is designed with six unit selections (Pa, kPa,
mbar, inchWC, mmWC, psi) and eight field selectable measurement
ranges (unidirectional and bi-directional) to meet your application
requirements. The DPT-R8 series is comprised of the DPT250-R8
with ranges from 25 Pa to 250 Pa, the DPT2500-R8 with ranges
from 100 Pa to 2500 Pa, and the DPT7000-R8 with ranges from
1000 Pa to 7000 Pa.
All DPT-R8 series differential pressure transmitters are available
with display and autozero calibration.
APPLICATIONS
DPT-R8 series devices are commonly used in HVAC/R systems for:
• fan, blower and filter monitoring
• pressure and flow monitoring
SPECIFICATIONS
• valve and damper control
• pressure monitoring in cleanrooms
SPECIFICATIONS
Performance
Accuracy (from applied pressure):
Models 250 and 2500:
Pressure < 125 Pa = 1 % + ±2 Pa
Pressure > 125 Pa = 1 % + ±1 Pa
Model 7000:
Pressure < 125 Pa = 1.5 % + ±2 Pa
Pressure > 125 Pa = 1.5 % + ±1 Pa
(including: general accuracy, linearity, hysteresis,
long term stability, and repetition error)
Overpressure:
Proof pressure: 25 kPa
