INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing an HK Instruments DPI series electronic
differential pressure switch. The DPI series is intended for use
in commercial environments. It combines the advantages of an
electronic differential pressure switch (on-off relay) and a multi-
functional differential pressure transmitter to meet your job re-
quirements.
The DPI series is comprised of the DPI±500 with bi-directional
measurement ranges from ±100 to ±500 Pa and the DPI2500 with
measurement ranges from 100 to 2500 Pa.
All DPI series devices include one relay, display, manual pushbut-
ton zero point calibration and span point calibration. Optional fea-
tures include a second relay and autozero calibration.
APPLICATIONS
DPI series devices are commonly used in HVAC/R systems for:
• fan, blower and filter monitoring
• staircase pressure monitoring and alarm
SPECIFICATIONS
• pressure monitoring in cleanrooms
• boiler pressure monitoring and alarm
