1.

Record the original location of the Limit setpoint knob. 

Make sure that the Limit setpoint knob is set (moved to) 

a lower value than the Maximum Fixed Stop Limit Value 

setpoint. The green LED will be reflective of the call for 

heat status and the yellow LED will blink slowly.

IMPORTANT

Do not decrease the Limit Setpoint knob far enough 

to cause a lockout.

2.

Very slowly increase the Limit setpoint knob until the 

yellow LED begins to blink fast. The current position of 

the Limit setpoint now represents the Maximum Fixed 

Stop Limit Value setpoint stored in memory.

3.

Return the Limit setpoint knob to the original location 

(step 

1

).

Setting High Limit Set Point (P7810C,D)

After the Maximum Fixed Stop Limit Value has been stored 

into memory, adjust the Limit Setpoint knob to the desired 

pressure value at which safety shutdown (lockout) will occur 

when the vessel pressure exceeds this setpoint value. 

NOTE: The High Limit setpoint value can be less than or 

equal to the Maximum Fixed Stop Limit Value but 

cannot be set to a value higher than the Maximum 

Fixed Stop Limit Value.

Pressure On/Off Control (P7810A,B,C,D)

Adjust the setpoint and differential using the potentiometer 

knobs on the front of the controller. The differential is a 

subtractive value from the setpoint adjustment. The upper 

operating point is determined by the control setpoint, while the 

lower operating point is determined by the control range 

setting (control setpoint minus the differential setting).

Set the potentiometer knobs to the desired point by aligning 

the center of the arrow on the potentiometer knob with the 

desired mark on the scale plate. See Fig. 13.

Yellow light emitting diode (LED) ON constantly indicates 

power applied; green LED On indicates closed contact or call 

for heat.

Modulate Control (P7810B,C Only)

The P7810B,C adds 4 to 20 mA modulation output and uses 

two additional potentiometers. The pressure sensor output is 

fed to an error and gain amplifier to perform the modulation 

determined by the control potentiometer settings.

The potentiometer knobs mounted on the P7810B,C face 

adjust the current output for a given set of pressures. 

The modulation range is an additive value to the modulation 

setpoint value.

LED Display (Tables 7 and 8)

The yellow LED is always lit with power applied to the P7810 

Pressuretrol® Controller. The microprocessor changes the 

brightness of the yellow LED to indicate normal operation, 

turns the green LED on and off to indicate call for heat status 

and flashes both LEDs to indicate a fault.

NOTE: The term “flashing” means on/off/on/off for the green 

LED and bright/dim/bright/dim for the yellow LED.

Press and hold the Reset Switch to access internal 

diagnostics. The green (right) LED will flash a series of long 

followed by a series of short flashes. Count the long and short 

flashes and check the fault code table (Table 8) for 

information. For example: four long and three short flashes is 

code 43. If you miss the code the first time, keep holding the 

Reset Switch down and the code will repeat. Letting go of the 

Reset Switch clears the fault information and resets the 

P7810.
