Dwyer Instruments Digihelic DHC Series Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

The Series DHC Digihelic
®
possessing a digital display gage, control relay switches, and a transmitter with both
current and voltage outputs. Combining these 3 features allows the reduction of
several instruments with one product, saving inventory, installation time, and cost.
The Series DHC Digihelic
®
pressure, velocity, and volumetric flow applications reading in several commonly
used engineering units with optional unidirectional or bidirectional ranges. These
units achieve a 1.5% or better accuracy on extremely low ranges, and 0.5% accuracy
for ranges at or above 1 in w.c. Calibration can be performed in the field, making
maintaining its accuracy more manageble. Additionally, the Series DHC Digihelic
differential pressure controller includes 2 SPDT control relays with adjustable
deadbands. Programming the unit is simple using the built-in menu. With scalable
4-20 mA, selectable voltage process outputs, and selectable Modbus
communication, this controller can easily fit into your application.
INSTALLATION
Select a clean, dry location that is free from shock and vibration where temperature
limits will not be exceeded. Distance from the transmitter to the receiver is limited
only by total loop resistance. See WIRING section. The tubing feeding pressure to
the instrument can be practically any length required, but longer lengths will slightly
increase response time.
All standard models are calibrated for use in a vertical mounting position. The DHC
will perform properly when mounted at any angle but should be zeroed before use.
Pressure Connections
For installation convenience, there are two sets of 1/8˝ female NPT pressure ports;
one set is located on the back of the unit and the other is located on the side. Be sure
to seal the unused ports with the included pipe plugs (accessory A-330).
• Positive Pressure: Connect tubing to the HIGH PRESSURE port (indicated with a
"+" sign) and vent the LOW PRESSURE port (indicated with a "-" sign) to
atmosphere.
• Negative (Vacuum) Pressure: Connect tubing to the LOW PRESSURE port
(indicated with a "-" sign) and vent the HIGH PRESSURE port (indicated with a
"+" sign) to atmosphere. When operating this device in a dusty environment, install
an optional A-331 filter vent plug into the vented port to keep interior clean.
• Differential Pressure: Connect tubing from the higher source to the HIGH
PRESSURE port (indicated with a "+" sign) and from the lower source to the LOW
PRESSURE port (indicated with a "-" sign).
