SERIES 604
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE TRANSMITTER
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
The Dwyer Series 604 differential pressure transmitter
converts air or compatible gas pressure into a standard
4-20 mA output signal for pressure ranges from 0-0.1 up
to 0-120" w.c. Each of the models overlap in range, so
that any range within these limits can be achieved by
adjustment of the span and zero controls. Convenient
two-wire operation simplifies installation and expands
application .,flexibility over three and four wire units.
Positive, negative or differential pressures can be
measured within an accuracy of ±2% of span. The
Series 604 transmitter uses a diaphragm linked to a
cantilevered leaf spring as in the Dwyer Magnehelic®
gage. However, the mechanical amplification achieved
by the magnet/ helix/pointer components in the indicating
gage is eliminated. Instead a silicon strain gage is
cemented to the range spring. As this is flexed by
applied pressure via the diaphragm, a resistance change
is produced which is conditioned and converted into a 4-
20 mA output signal.
For applications requiring direct pressure or percent of
full span readings, the optional A-701 digital readout
makes an ideal companion device. It provides a bright
.6" high, 3-1/2 digit, LED display while also supplying
power to the Series 604 transmitter.
For additional information on these and other Dwyer
pressure transmitting instruments, refer to Bulletin E-50.
