Poppet Valve Technology
DESCRIPTION
The EP3 Series combines a microcontroller with high performance, low power
coil poppet valve technology to create a system with unparalleled accuracy and
proven reliability. The poppet valves used in the EP3 consume no air, eliminating
unnecessary air losses in the system and allowing for ecient, long-term operation.
The EP3 permits versatility, since all models feature manual override and a tri-state
control option. The LCD provides easy visibility and the LED indicators provide visual
status of valve operation in manual or automatic mode. All models come with
SnapTrack housing and optional covers are available.
APPLICATIONS
● Hospitals
● Schools
● Pneumatic dampers/actuators
PRESSURE
EP3
FEATURES
● Field-selectable 4-20mA/0-5V/0-10VDC input for application exibility
● Poppet valve technology for quiet operation
● Manual override with set and hold feature...great for commissioning
those leaky systems
● Multi-point calibration; 3-15 psi (5 point calibration) and 0-20 psi
(6 point calibration)
● Pressure loss alarm provides a contact closure if the EP3 is unable to
achieve the desired output within a xed length of time
● Failsafe vent solenoids bleed branch pressure on power failure for added safety
● Optional transparent plastic dust cover (AA43) protects units from dust
and tampering (required for CE)
● User programmable zero and full scale outputs
● Backlit LCD for local indication of readings...easy to view
● Dual-color LED...assists in trouble shooting
● Tristate and PWM inputs
