Dwyer Instruments, Inc. announces release of Series 629 Wet/Wet Differential Pressure Transmitter

Dwyer Instruments, Inc., the preferred source for your complete range of practical and affordable instrumentation, is announcing the release of its new Series 629 Wet/Wet Differential Pressure Transmitter with optional 3-way valve. The 629 transmitter with optional 3-way valve is the ideal product for monitoring differential pressures on HVAC equipment such as water chillers, coils, heat exchangers and pumps. This optional integral valve manifold simplifies installation by allowing the installer to isolate or combine the pressures on the high and low pressure ports. The valve manifold is also an excellent maintenance tool by providing the capability to perform maintenance on the transmitter without interrupting the process. Bleed ports are provided on the valve manifold to alleviate possible trapped air in the lines. The 3-way valve manifold is machined entirely from brass and is completely assembled to the 629 transmitter when ordered together. Visit www.dwyer-inst.com for more information.

SmartFan® Inversion is an innovative fan speed control that combines an AC to DC power supply and a DC fan control/alarm to provide the best of both worlds; the convenience of AC power, the control and efficiency of DC fans. Typical speed controlled DC fans use 40-60% less power at reduced speeds compared to a similar AC fan. The voltage vs. flow curve of a DC fan is also more linear than a typical AC fan, making speed control more accurate. Inversion’s supply voltage range is 95 to 264 VAC. It controls 24 or 48 VDC fans with current rating up to 4.0 Amps. Variable fan speed is based on temperature or a control signal (4-20mA, 2-10VDC) input. Benefits of using SmartFan include acoustical noise reduction, temperature regulation, greater product reliability, increased fan life, improved safety and energy savings.
