Exceptional Accuracy and StabilityThis pressure transmitter delivers superior accuracy up to 0.25% F.S. and long-term stability of 0.2% F.S./year. It employs advanced strain gauge and piezoresistive sensor technology to guarantee reliable performance in critical applications. Its rapid response time of less than 50 milliseconds enhances real-time monitoring and control in dynamic environments.
Robust Hygienic DesignConstructed with corrosion-resistant stainless steel 316L and a flush diaphragm, the transmitter is specifically engineered to prevent clogging while facilitating easy cleaning. It is particularly suitable for hygienic industries such as food processing and pharmaceuticals, meeting stringent standards for safety and contamination prevention.
Flexible Installation and Output OptionsThe transmitter supports multiple process connections (G1/2" thread, clamp, custom fittings), mounting types (threaded or clamp), and connectivity formats (2-wire/3-wire). Users can select from analog outputs (4-20mA, 0-10V) and optional digital displays for versatile integration into a wide range of process control systems.
FAQs of Flush Pressure Transmitter:
