Dwyer Instruments: Series EPTA, Electro-pneumatic Transducer

Low Cost, Selectable Input/Output, Manual Override

The Series EPTA is an electric to pneumatic transducer that converts an analog input signal to a linearly proportionate pneumatic output by modulating its control valves to regulate branch line pressure to the set point determined by the input signal. All models incorporate two low voltage valves, an integral inbarb filter, a 0 to 30 psi analog gage, an anodized aluminum manifold, and brass barbed fittings. The EPTA offers adjustable span and offset as well as manual override. This unit has no air consumption and is immune to mounting orientation. Output pressure ranges include field selectable 0 to 10, 0 to 15, and 0 to 20 psig. Also included is an analog 0 to 5 VDC feedback signal indicating the resultant branch line pressure. Universal 24 VAC/24 VDC supply voltage and field selectable 4 to 20 mA, 0 to 5 VDC, 0 to 10 VDC, or 0 to 15 VDC inputs ensure single unit compatibility with most systems. The standard models maintain branch pressure on power loss while the Fail-Safe models will drop the branch pressure to 0 psi on power loss. Mounting configurations include a metal bracket mount in the EPTA-B models and a snap-track mount in the EPTA-S models. The A-400 accessory kit will allow the EPTA-S models to be mounted on a standard DIN rail.
