Series A3000 Photohelic®Differential Pressure Switch/Gage
Specications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Bulletin B-33-A
The SERIES A3000 PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage is a versatile 2-in-1 instrument
combining a time-proven Magnehelic®differential pressure gage with low/high pressure
switches. It is designed to measure and control positive, negative or differential pressure
of air or other non-combustible, non-corrosive gases. Gage reading is unaffected by
switch operation. Switch set points are easily adjusted with knobs located on gage
face. Applied pressure and switch set points are fully visible at all times. Deadband is
one pointer width, less than 1% of full scale. Each set point controls a DPDT relay and
both relays can be interlocked to provide variable deadband control.
INSTALLATION
1. Location: Select a clean, dry, vibration-free location where ambient temperatures
will be between 20 and 120°F (-6.67 and 48.9°C). Tubing supplying pressure to the
instrument can be practically any length but long runs will increase response time
slightly.
2. Position: The PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage is factory calibrated for use with scale
in a vertical plane. Operation at other angles may affect accuracy and/or require zero
adjustment. Most models can be specially calibrated at the factory for other positions
if specied at time of ordering. Ranges below 1 in w.c. must be used only with scale
vertical.
3. Mounting: The PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage is normally mounted before making
electrical connections. The electrical enclosure is removable at any time regardless of
mounting method.
(A) Panel Mounting: Normal mounting is ush or through panel as shown in Figure B.
Allow 4-3/8˝ (111.13 mm) clearance behind the unit for removal of electrical enclosure.
Make a 4-13/16˝ (122.24 mm) diameter hole in panel. Insert the PHOTOHELIC®
Switch/Gage unit from front of panel and slip mounting ring over case from behind
with stepped side facing rear. Fit the snap ring into narrow groove at back edge of the
bezel. Thread four 6-32 x 1-1/4˝ mounting screws into tapped holes in mounting ring
and seat it against snap ring. Tighten screws against back of panel. See Figure B.

(B) Surface Mounting with Remote Relays: Where it is preferred to mount the
amplier-relay unit separate from the gage assembly, the gage is mounted as shown
in Figure B (without amplier-relay package) or surface mounted as shown in Figure
C. Use the dimensions in Figure D to locate holes.
(C) Remote Relays Mounting: On factory supplied RMR (remote mounted relay)
units, the amplier-relay package will be furnished attached to a mounting plate as
shown in Figure E. Use the hole layout in Figure F for this option. A ve foot cable
assembly is included for connecting the two components. Longer cable lengths are
available from the factory.
(D) Type 2 Environment Installation Requirements: When installing in an indoor
location where the amplier-relay unit is exposed to falling or dripping water, a drain
opening must be drilled in the bottom of the amplier-relay enclosure. Drill the opening
as shown in Figure G.
4. Pneumatic Connections & Zeroing: After installation but before making pressure
connections, set the indicating pointer exactly on the zero mark, using the zero adjust
screw located at the bottom of the front cover. Note that this adjustment can only be
made with the high and low pressure taps both open to atmosphere.
Connect the high and low pressure taps to positive, negative, or differential pressure
sensing points. Use 1/4˝ diameter metal or other instrument tubing and 1/8˝ NPT
adapters at the PHOTOHELIC®pressure switch/gage. Adapters for rubber or soft
plastic tubing are furnished with the instrument for use where this type of connection
is preferred.
If the PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage is not used to sense differential pressure, one
of the pressure taps must be left open to atmosphere. This will allow the reference
pressure to enter. In this case, installation of a Dwyer Instruments, Inc. No. A-331 Filter
Vent Plug or similar tting in the reference pressure tap is recommended to reduce the
possibility of dust entering the instrument.
Note: If the PHOTOHELIC®switch/gage is over pressured, pointer may “jump” from
full scale back to zero and remain there until the excess pressure condition is relieved.
Users should be aware of possible false zero pressure indications under this condition.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Cover: The amplier-relay unit has an easy to remove housing. Remove the three
(3) screws as shown in Figure H and slide the housing off. Make all the electrical
connections before reinstalling and refastening the housing.
2. Conduit: Electrical access to the connection box portion of the relay housing is by
bottom opening for 3/4˝ conduit. Use of exible conduit is recommended. It should be
supported from the panel or other suitable surface to prevent the wiring system from
exerting undue strain on the instrument. See Figure H.
3. Terminal or Connection Board Layout: In Figure J “Terminal Board,” Section
Acontains the connections for the load or slave relay actuated by the high or right
set point. This relay is a double pole, double throw type. The two right connections
are normally closed, the two middle connections are normally open, and the left
connections are the common pair. The relay is in its normal or De-Energized position
when pressure is below the right hand set point.
Section D is exactly the same as Section A except that its load or slave relay is
controlled by the low or left set point. The De-Energized position is below the left hand
pointer set point.
Section B contains the external connections to the holding coil circuit for the high or
right set point relay and Section C contains similar connections for the low or left set
point relay. The function and use of these connections varies somewhat depending on
the circuit style of the instrument. See paragraphs 5 and 6 for details.
Section E contains the power connections for the control unit transformer primary.
The transformer in turn supplies reduced voltage power for the LED, phototransistor,
amplier unit, and load relay pull in and hold coils. Connections must always be made
to this section in order to put the unit in operation. Standard units are designed for
120 VAC input to the transformer. Special units are also available for other voltages.
Separate Ground Wire attachment is provided for by a No. 6-32 screw on the
mounting bracket near the conduit opening. An additional ground wire connection is
located on the side of the gage body for use when the amplier-relay unit is mounted
remotely.
Single Set Point instruments are furnished with the right or high set point components
and circuitry in place. These are connected to Sections A and B of the terminal board.
The left or low set point components are omitted.
4. Circuit Style: The PHOTOHELIC®SWITCH/GAGE is available with several factory
installed optional internal circuits. They are identied as to style by a label shown in
Figure K. This label is mounted prominently on the terminal board of each instrument.
The letter H denotes a circuit in which the relay can be made to latch or remain
energized after pressure increase to its set point.
The letter L denotes a circuit in which the relay can be made to latch or remain
de-energized after pressure decrease to its set point. Two letters are required to
fully identify a dual set point unit. Thus, circuit style HH, which is standard, is a dual
set point circuit which has provisions for latching on pressure increase to either set
point. Single relay unit or L for the special low latch unit. Units for use with other than
standard 120 VAC will be so indicated on the label.
5. Dual Set Point Automatic Reset: Circuit Style HH is used for simple on-off
switching applications. To place in service, connect load circuits to the appropriate
terminals in Section A (Figure J) for the right set point and Section D for the left set
point. Note that the N.O. contacts are open when the gage pressure pointer is to
the left of the set point pointers. No connections are necessary in Sections B and C.
Make external ground connections as required and connect power to Section E for the
control unit. To use circuit style LL for automatic reset, a jumper wire must be installed
between the two terminals in Sections B and/or C.
6. Dual Set Point Manual Reset: Circuit Style HH may also be used for manual reset
applications where it is required to maintain contact on either relay following pressure
increase above its set point. Load or signal connections are made to the appropriate
terminals in Sections A and D (as in paragraph 5 above). Connect terminals in Sections
B and C through normally closed switches or push buttons as shown in Figure L. Use
of “dry-circuit” type switches such as a Dwyer Part No. A-601 with paladium, gold,
etc. or rotary wiping action type contacts is recommended. Make external ground
connections as required and connect power to Section E for the control unit.

CAUTION: Do not apply electrical current to

11. Single Set Point Special: Manual reset after actuation on falling pressure can be
obtained by using Circuit Style SRL. Consult the factory for special units and detailed
instructions regarding their use.
12. Placing in Service: In normal operation each relay is de-energized when the
pressure applied to the instrument is below its set point. Special low-latching units will
ordinarily have to be reset before placing on the line in normal operation.
13. Failure Mode: The PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage circuit design provides certain
protection in the event of a loss of pressure or electrical power. In either case, both
relays will de-energize, returning to their normal “zero pressure” state. The exceptions
to this are models with center zero ranges. Because the relays on all standard
models are always energized when the indicating (black) pointer is to the right of their
respective set points, the relay action on loss of pressure will depend on set point
position, since either of them could be located to the left of zero. As an example; if the
left pointer were set at -2 in. w.c. and negative pressure was -3 in. w.c., a loss of that
pressure would allow the black pointer to return to the center and thus cause the low
set point relay to energize.
If the LED should burn out, only the left-low relay will de-energize. The right-high relay
will react as if pressure were above its set point and will remain energized even though
pressure might be below that setting. In this situation, only termination of electrical
power will allow the right-high relay to de-energize.
MAINTENANCE
Dwyer Instruments, Inc. PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gages are precision instruments,
expertly assembled and calibrated at the factory. They require no lubrication or
periodic servicing. If the interior is protected from dust, dirt, corrosive gases and uids,
years of trouble-free service may be expected. Zero adjustment should be checked
and reset occasionally to maintain accuracy. The PHOTOHELIC®Switch/Gage is not
eld serviceable and should be returned if repair is needed (eld repair should not
be attempted and may void warranty). Be sure to include a brief description of the
problem plus any relevant application notes. Contact customer service to receive a
return goods authorization (RGA) number before shipping.

DWYER INSTRUMENTS, INC.
Circuit style LL is used for manual reset applications which require that contact be
maintained following pressure decrease below the set point. Load connections are
made to the appropriate terminals in Sections A and D. A normally open type manual
reset switch such as Dwyer®Instruments, Inc. Part No. A-601 is connected to the
terminals in Sections B and C. The circuit must be “armed by momentarily closing
the switch while the black pointer is to the right of the set point. From that point on,
the circuit will latch on pressure decrease below the set point and remain latched on
pressure increase until manually reset with the optional switch.
7. Dual Set Point Automatic and Manual Reset Combinations: Circuit Style HH
may be used with either set point wired and operating as in paragraph 5 above and the
other set point wired and operating as in paragraph 6.
8. High Low Limit Control - Dual Set Point: Circuit Style HH may be used to control
fans, dampers, pumps, etc., between the set points of a PHOTOHELIC®Switch/
Gage. To accomplish this, use one set point relay to reset the other as shown in the
wiring diagram Figure M. In this typical application, the load (for instance a fan) would
be connected to the N.C. contacts for the right set point relay Section A (Figure J).
On pressure rise to the right set point, its relay would pull in and hold even though
pressure might then fall below that set point. I the pressure continued to fall to the
left set point, its relay would automatically be DE-ENERGIZED, return to its normal
position and in so doing, open the holding coil circuit from Section B (Figure J). The
right set point relay would thus be reset and the cycle could repeat.
9. Dual Set Point Special Purpose Circuits: Circuit Style LL may be used where
manual reset following maintained contact on pressure decrease to either set point
is required. Circuit Styles HL and LH are combination units. For special combinations
of features, special units, and detailed instructions regarding their use, consult the
factory.
10. Single Set Point PHOTOHELIC®:The single set point PHOTOHELIC®Switch/
Gage is furnished with the right set point only. Terminals in Sections A and B (Figure
J) are connected to this relay. Circuit Style SRH is wired for automatic reset as in
paragraph 5 above. Manual reset is accomplished by adding a normally closed reset
switch or push button to the circuit as described in paragraph 6 above.
