Which Room Pressure Monitor Do I Need?

Each space in a hospital requires a different level of monitoring. Some rooms necessitate observing a variety of parameters while others only need an indication of pressure. No matter the requirements, Setra offers a line of pressure monitors to fit any room.

Setra FLEX

setra-flex-environmental-room-monitor

FLEX is an environmental room pressure monitor and controller. With a flush-mount faceplate and intuitive 7" graphical display, FLEX can meet any architectural requirements. A modular hardware design enables FLEX to fit in various wall thicknesses around the globe. For applications with wall depths less than 50mm, FLEX can be ordered with an external pressure sensor. The faceplate is attached to the unit body, allowing for both tamper resistant operation and easy pressure calibration. Configuration settings on one unit can be cloned to other devices using a USB.

Monitors: up to 3 rooms, 6 parameters per room

Parameters: pressure, temperature, humidity, air changes, and 2 user-defined

Communications: BACnet IP, BACnet MS/TP

Alarms: audible, visual

Works Best For: operating rooms, isolation rooms, compounding pharmacies, and all other critical environments and laboratories

SRPM


The SRPM is a single room BACnet room pressure monitor for measuring low differential pressure in critical applications. The SRPM's backlit touchscreen LCD provides a clear and intuitive graphic user interface for easy setup. With a bi-directional sensor, the SRCM can switch between protection and isolation room modes or be put into standby mode when the room isn't being used.


Monitors: single room, 1 parameter


Parameters: pressure


Communications: BACnet MS/TP


Alarms: audible, visual


Works Best For: single room differential pressure sensing in surface-mount applications



SRCM


Model-SRCM-thumb

The SRCM is a high-performing BACnet device for measuring low differential pressure in critical applications. Building on the SRPM's features, the SRCM has cloning functionality via a USB. The SRCM also has a flush-mount design and a large 4.3" LCD touchscreen for easy menu navigation.


Monitors: up to 2 rooms, 4 parameters per room


Parameters: pressure, temperature, humidity, and 1 user-defined


Communications: BACnet MS/TP


Alarms: audible, visual


Works Best For: operating rooms, isolation rooms, and many critical environments



setra-lite-room-pressure-indicatorLite


Lite is a simple and cost-effective monitor for displaying the differential pressure of areas that currently require manual verification. Designed to fit into a single gang electrical box, it also provides an optional visual display of pressure. The bright light ring can be seen at an angle or down a hallway, making it easy to see if rooms are properly pressurized.


Monitors: single room, 1 parameter


Parameters: pressure


Communications: analog output of pressure signal


Alarms: visual only


Works Best For: all healthcare ASHRAE 170 spaces and any applications where a simple light is an acceptable safety verification
