    Pressure Switch/Differential Pressure Switch

    Dear MintJulep Are there any benefits of using Pressure Differential Switch over a Pressure Switch? If I use PDS instead of PS, then one side should sense the fan discharge side pressure in the duct, but what should the other port sense. Room pressure or Suction side pressure?
