QuickGuide 

The DM-2 has two independent differential-pressure 

sensors (Channel A and B) and an automatic controller that 

will control all Retrotec fans.  

Channel A always displays the pressure difference between 

the blue “Input A(+)” and the red “Ref A(-)”. “PrA” on the 

screen refers to Pressure on channel A. 

Channel B similarly measures pressure between “Input 

B(+)” and “Ref B(-)”. This pressure is converted to flow or 

other units when a Device and Mode is selected. See Page 4 

to change the enabled Devices and Modes.
The DM-2 contains:
