GRILLO-DPC differential pressure controllers / volume flow controllers are used to measure and control low differential pressures of non-aggressive gases, especially air. A signal of 0…10V is available to the user as an analog output. Depending on the setting of the device, this signal has different meanings. If the instrument is used as a pressure sensor, the output signal is proportional to the measured pressure. As a volume flow sensor, the device provides a root-equipped output signal. In pressure or flow rate control, the output signal represents the manipulated variable of the PI control.

It is used, for example, in air conditioning technology for controlling fans, monitoring room pressure or controlling filters. In addition to the analogue output, an additional alarm output (open collector) is available for limit value monitoring or filter monitoring.

The differential pressure controller / volume flow controller DPC310 is based on the DPC200 and expands its range of functions, thus providing more dynamics.

In control mode, the setpoint of the DPC310 can now be set dynamically. This can be done by an external input of a 10 V DC signal or in combination with a temperature sensor. Pressure and flow rate are no longer solely responsible for fan control, but other factors such as the outdoor temperature can play a role. The four preset measuring ranges are an additional improvement. Four important measuring ranges were combined for each application. This increases the range of application and simplifies ordering and warehousing.

In addition, the DPC310 offers all the functions of the DPC200.
