HK INSTRUMENTS DPT-Ctrl-MOD Air Handling Controller Instruction Manual

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing an HK Instruments DPT-Ctrl-MOD series air handling controller with differential pressure or airflow transmitter. The DPTCtrl-MOD series PID controllers are engineered for building automation in the HVAC/R industry. With the built-in controller of the DPT-Ctrl-MOD it is possible to control the constant pressure or flow of fans, VAV systems or dampers. When controlling air flow, it is possible to select a fan manufacturer  or a common measuring probe that has a K-value.

The DPT-Ctrl-MOD includes an Input terminal that enables the reading of multiple signals such as temperature or control relays over Modbus. The Input terminal has one input channel designed to accept 0−10 V, NTC10k, Pt1000, Ni1000/(-LG), and BIN IN (potential free contact) signal.

APPLICATIONS

DPT-Ctrl-MOD series devices are commonly used in HVAC/R systems for:

  • Controlling differential pressure or air flow in air handling systems
  • VAV applications
  • Controlling parking garage exhaust fans

STEP 2: WIRING DIAGRAMS

For CE compliance, a properly grounded shielding cable is required.

  1. Unscrew the strain relief and route the cable(s).
  2. Connect the wires as shown in figure 2a and 2b.

Signals Accuracy for measurement Resolution
0…10 V < 0,5 % 0,1 %
NTC10k < 0,5 % 0,1 %
Pt1000 < 0,5 % 0,1 %
Ni1000/(-LG) < 0,5 % 0,1 %
BIN IN (potential free contact) / /

The jumpers should be set according to the instructions below and the value
should be read from the right register.

Input signal configuration

STEP 6: TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION

The device includes an outdoor temperature compensation function that can be enabled from the menu. When activated and an outdoor temperature sensor is attached, the effective set point of the device will be modified to compensate for the cold outdoor air. This may result in energy savings. for the cold outdoor air. This may result in energy savings.

If temperature compensation is enabled, the device will linearly decrease the
user’s setpoint (REF FLOW/REF PRESSURE) by 0 % to TC DROP % from TC START TE to TC STOP TE.

The device enforces a +5 °C difference between the start and stop temperatures. The start temperature must be higher than the stop temperature.

  1. Connect and configure an outdoor air temperature sensor. See step 5.

  2. Enable temperature compensation.
    Enable temperature compensation

  3. Set the starting temperature for compensation
    Device menu

  4. Set the stopping temperature for compensation.
    Device menu

  5. Set the maximum drop percentage for compensation.
    Device menu

STEP 7: Fixed output

Fixed output settings can be enabled to set the control output to a preset value. Primary purpose of this functionality is to enable the adjustment of air valves and terminals without the DPT-Ctrl affecting the duct pressure or air flow. It can also aid in troubleshooting the installation.

  1. To enable the fixed output, scroll to its position in the menu
    Device menu

  2. Press the select button and select the desired fixed output value. The output will now stay at this value indefinitely. In normal operation mode (shown below), the upper row of the display will show FIXED xx % to indicate the output is fixed.

  3. To enable the normal control output and disable the fixed output, scroll to its position, select it and set value to OFF.
    Fixed output function is also available via Modbus. (4×0016: Overdrive active, 4×0015: Overdrive value)

STEP 8: Using the 2SP-feature

2SP (setpoint) is a feature with a binary input to select between two user adjustable setpoints. The desired setpoint can be selected, for example, with weekly clock, turn switch or key card switch.

  1. Select INPUT => BIN IN.
    Select INPUT

  2. Set the jumpers as shown beside to determine the input signal.
