Product Description

The ACI/EPW converts a pulse, phase cut, or digital PWM signal into a proportional pneumatic signal ranging from 0-20 psig. The pneumatic output is proportional to the signal input, your choice of direct or reverse acting.  The EPW has a manual override potentiometer to vary the pneumatic output and two LED’s, one for power and one for signal status indication.

The EPW offers jumper selectable input timing ranges of 0.1 to 10 seconds, 0.02 to 5 seconds, 0-1 to 25 seconds, 0.59 to 2.93 seconds, 0.023 to 6 seconds, 0 to 10 seconds Duty Cycle Version and 20V StaefaTM Phase Cut.

Output pressure ranges are jumper shunt selectable to 0 to 10, 0 to 15 and 0 to 20 psig, and adjustable in all ranges.

A 0-5 VDC feedback signal indicating the resultant branch pressure is also provided. This signal varies linearly with branch pressure range selected.  EPW is designed with electrical terminals on one end and pneumatic connections on the other, allowing for 

maximum convenience in wiring and tubing installation when panel mounted. 

Three basic configurations are available:

The EPW is a constant bleed interface with branch exhaust response time determined by the bleed orifice size and pressure differentials. If power fails to the EPW, it will continue to bleed through the bleed orifice until branch pressure is 0 psig.

The EPW2 incorporates two valves (one controls exhaust) and does not bleed air at set point. Its branch exhaust flow and response time are not limited by an internal restrictor and are similar to its load rate. If power fails to the EPW2, branch line pressure remains constant if the branch line does not leak air.

FAIL SAFE: The EPW2FS is a two-valve fail-safe model. Its 3-way branch exhaust valve allows exhaust of branch line air on a power failure.
