1. Overview of PendoTECH PressureMAT

The PressureMAT is a monitor, alarm, and transmitter system designed for use with Single Use Pressure Sensors from PendoTECH. It is comprised of the control system box with user interface and the connectors on the back panel where input and output components can be interfaced. If equipped, the alarm output function includes a dry contact relay output. The transmitter function delivers an analog 4 – 20 milliamp output signal corresponding to the pressure reading on the display. There are numerous applications in biopharmaceutical production processes where the system can be used.

The models are as follows:

* Available in “High Resolution” model with HR s uffix

System Components Su ppl ied:

• PressureMAT Instrument

• Cable(s) for connection of pressure sensors to the control system

• Connectors for cable for each output

• 4 Screws for mounting

• Power supply

Revision 8

The PressureMAT with its user interface is used to display pressure readings, zero calibrate the pressure sensor, and to access the program menus to edit the alarm high and low set point values and other tasks.

The sensor pressure is displayed on the LCD display for each input channel. High and low alarm pressure set points are entered on the keypad for each channel and if the process pressure goes below the low setting or above the high setting, the system will go into alarm state. With models with the relay output, the alarm function includes activation of the dry contact relay output, a flashing “ALARM>” indication on LCD on the same line as the pressure input channel in the alarm state, and an audible tone for 30 seconds. When an alarm condition goes away, all indicators automatically go back to normal (unless the optional alarm latching function is turned on which requires STOP to be pressed to clear the alarm). The alarm functions are always active for all channels. For the PressureMAT PLUS models, flow or a scaled analog input value can measure & display other values.

Also available is a single channel model PMAT-S: The model has a unique remote pressure tare input.

1.2.1. Hardware Details

There is no power switch so the system cannot be accidentally turned off. When the wall power supply is connected to the system and plugged into a wall outlet, the system will turn ON. Instructions to power down the system without unplugging are in Section 1.2.2 (System Power). The Front and Back Panels details are as shown:

FRONT PANEL:

Note: If a pressure sensor is not connected or is disconnected during operation of the system, the pressure reading will drift and eventually go to a value greater than 75psi/5.17 bar and an alarm condition will occur. The time until the high alarm occurs may vary and this feature should not be used to control a process due to the time variance. Associated relays will switch and the analog output will send greater than 20mA.

The Sensor Cable Dust Cover / Zero Simulator for PressureMAT (PDKT-650-298CVR) can be used to:

1) Maintain a zero pressure when a channel is not in use

2) Protect the pins on the re-usable cable

1.2.2. Software Details

The software interface consists of the keypad (shown below) and the 8 line LCD backlit display. The program/firmware is stored in memory in the control system and cannot be edited by users. Only settings in the software menus can be changed. The system does not store any data unless equipped with optional data logger.

There is no power switch so the system cannot be accidentally turned off. When the wall power supply is connected to the system and plugged into a wall outlet, the welcome screen will appear momentarily followed by 2 beeps, then the HOME screen will appear.

Home Screen

When the system is powered on, the following HOME screen appears after the welcome screen with pressures 1 through 4 shown depending on the model number (with X.XX bar or XX.X psi as designated):

Navigation Between Pressure Sensor Input Channels

At the HOME screen, the UP/DOWN arrows are used to change the selected pressure input channel.

Zero Calibration for Pressure Sensors

1. Select the desired input channel using the UP/DOWN buttons

2. With a pressure sensor connected to the system and EXPOSED ONLY TO

ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE, press the Tare Button (LEFT ARROW button) on the keypad

3. The display should read 0.0 psi / 0.00 bar

4. If 0.0 psi / 0.00 bar is not displayed, press the ZERO/TARE button on the keypad again

Note: a minus sign may appear on the display when it reads 0.0 psi / 0.00 bar; this is normal as the pressure measured by the system may be a value such as -0.001 but displayed as -0.0 psi / -0.00 bar.

Alarm Function

If any channel has an alarm set, the alarm function includes:

a. The display screen will blink “ALARM>” on the channel with the alarm b. An audible tone for 30 seconds during the present alarm (it is reset for a new alarm

condition)

c. If present, a dry contact relay associated with that channel will switch (i.e., if wired as

normally CLOSED, it will OPEN; if wired as normally OPEN, it will CLOSE)

When an alarm condition goes away, all indicators automatically go back to normal (unless the optional alarm latching function is turned on). If a sensor is inadvertently not connected or becomes accidentally disconnected during a process the pressure reading will drift and eventually go to a value greater than 75psi/5.17 bar and an alarm condition will occur if the high alarm set-point is surpassed or in psi when the value goes above the hard-coded limit of

75. The time until the high alarm occurs may vary and this feature should not be used to control a process due to the time variance. Associated relays will switch and the analog output will send greater than 20mA.

Program M enu

To access the program menu for a pressure sensor, press the PROG key on the keypad with the desired input channel selected. The program menu is mainly used for setting of the high and low alarm set points and alarm detect delay. After pressing the PROG key, the following screen appears with X indicating selected channel:
