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.
• Cable(s) for connection of pressure sensors to the control system
• Connectors for cable for each output
• 4 Screws for mounting hardware
• Power supply
• RS-232 cable for data output to a PC (if ordered with the system)
1.1. Control System
The control system 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 process 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. 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 pressure to clear the alarm). The
alarm functions are always active for all channels.
1.2. Control System Details
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 1.2.3. The Front and Back Panels details
are as shown:
FRONT PANEL:
LCD BACKLIT
DISPLAY
Note: If a pressure sensor is not connected or is disconnected during operation of the system,
the pressure will go to a value greater than 75psi/5.17 bar and an alarm condition will occur.
Associated relays will switch and the analog output will send 20mA.

CONNECTIONS:
The external connections to the back panel are as shown below.
1. POWER SUPPLY connected to the power inlet connector
2. The PRESSURE SENSOR INPUTS connected via the DB15 connector
3. The OUTPUT RELAY:
a. NORMALLY OPEN- wired to terminals S and T via supplied connector (will switch to
CLOSED position with alarm condition)
b. NORMALLY CLOSED- wired to terminals R and T via supplied connector (will
switch to OPEN position with alarm condition)
c. POWER REMOVED- OPEN (S and T position) is the condition for relay(s)
4. The 4-20mA ANALOG OUTPUTS are wired to terminals S and T via supplied connector as
shown.
