1. Overview of PendoTECH PressureMAT
The PressureMAT is a monitor, alarm, and transmitter system designed for use with Single Use
Pressure Sensors from PendoTECH. It is comprised of the control system box with user interface and
the connectors on the back panel where input and output components can be interfaced. If equipped,
the alarm output function includes a dry contact relay output. The transmitter function delivers an
analog 4 – 20 milliamp output signal corresponding to the pressure reading on the display. There are
numerous applications in biopharmaceutical production processes where the system can be used.
The four available models are as follows:
Model Number Number of
Inputs
Number of
Outputs
Outputs
PMAT1 1 2 1 Relay /1 Analog
PMAT2 2 4 2 Relays / 2 Analogs or 4 Relays
PMAT3 3 4 3 Analogs / 1 Relay (for all sensors)
PMAT4A 4 4 4 Analogs
PMAT4R 4 4 4 Relays
System Components Supplied:
• Control system
• Cable(s) for connection of pressure sensors to the control system
• Connectors for cable for each output
• 4 Screws for mounting hardware
• Power supply
• RS-232 cable for data output to a PC (if ordered with the system)
1.1. Control System
The control system with its user interface is used to display pressure readings, zero calibrate the
pressure sensor, and to access the program menus to edit the alarm high and low set point values and
other tasks.
