EPTA-B EPTA-S
The Series EPTA Electro-Pneumatic Transducers convert 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 in-barb lter, a 0 to 30 psi analog gage,
an anodized aluminum manifold, and brass barbed ttings. 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 eld-selectable 0
to 10, 0 to 15, and 0 to 20 psig. Also included is an analog 0-5 VDC feedback signal
indicating the resultant branch line pressure. Universal 24 VAC/24 VDC supply voltage
and eld-selectable 4-20 mA, 0-5 VDC, 0-10 VDC, or 0-15 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 congurations 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.
