Function
Pressure dierential transmitters of type series DDS 984 are
used to measure dierential, positive, and negative pressure
in gaseous, non-aggressive media. They have up to 8 sensor
pressure ranges and 2 output signals that can be selected
alternatively by swapping a jumper.
The pressure transducer converts the mechanical pressure value
into an electrical sensor signal. The piezo-resistive pressure
transducer integrated into the DDS 984 pressure dierential
transmitter is congured so that the pressure to be read is
applied to a thin mono-silicon membrane. This deects the
membrane. The membrane is equipped with resistors based
on semi-conductor technology. These detect the mechanical
deection and generate an electrical output signal. The arran-
gement of the resistors at the same time results in temperature
response compensation. High-gain process ampliers convert
the signal from the pressure transducer into the output signal.
The electrical output signal changes proportionally to the
applied pressure within the specied error limits.
Possible applications include:
• Building automation, air-conditioning and cleanroom
technology
• Valve and damper control
• Filter, ventilator, and blower monitors
• Airow controls
