High-accuracy solid state pressure switch
American Sensor Technologies has developed a superior quality, high-accuracy solid state pressure switch for the measurement of gases and liquids compatible with stainless steel
(Pressure transmitters translate the low level output of a transducer to a higher-level signal suitable for transmission to a site where it can be further processed).
Units are specially designed for applications with demanding price and performance requirements.
Engineered to withstand the permeation of gases and liquids, the Model 5000 wet/wet differential pressure sensors feature a unique design free of internal O-rings or fill fluids that provides a seal against invading hazardous media.
Should either pressure port be at full line pressure and the other at zero, no damage will be done to the transmitter.
Other significant features of the Model 5000 Wet/Wet Differential Pressure Sensors.
* Both voltage and current outputs are available over a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 85C (-40 to 185F).
* Measurements are available in differential pressures covering line pressures from 0-100 to 1,000 psi.
* On-board analogue compensation ensures fast response times.
* Compact design makes it ideal for a wide range of applications such as refrigeration, water management, power generation, filtration, pipeline gas instrumentation, and data loggers.
The Model 5000 Pressure Sensors are constructed from stainless steel, which provides long life and resistance to media corrosion as well as superb over range and burst protection.
Units offer accuracy of 0.3% BFSL at 25C (77F) and sustain performance over more than 10 million pressure cycles.
Exhibiting excellent resistance to high vibration, shock and temperature extremes, units are able to perform in a variety of demanding environments.
Pricing for the AST Series of pressure sensors begins at USD425.00 with volume discounts available.
