Pressure sensor is safe for hydrogen service
The Model AST 4600 explosion-proof pressure sensor is ideal for use in hydrogen service and other hazardous applications.
Wet/wet DP sensors for corrosive conditions
AST wet/wet DP sensors are designed for use in water management, gas pipeline instrumentation, filtration, natural gas compressors and applications where corrosive liquids and gases are present
The stainless steel construction of the header and housing makes it ideal for use in the corrosive environments of gas panels as well as within energy/water management applications (pump and tank monitoring).
The pressure sensors also serve the automotive industry as integral components of test equipment and aftermarket pressure regulators.
Built for robust use, each AST4100 pressure sensor employs a thick one-piece diaphragm (free of internal O-rings, welds and fill fluids) that offers a strong hermetic seal against the media.
Available in both 17-4PH and 316L stainless steel, units offer superior resistance to media corrosion as well as superb over range and burst protection.
Manufactured with the OEM in mind, each unit holds an UL/cUL 508 approval.
American Sensor Technologies also utilises its own-patented Krystal Bond Technology that further enhances sensor performance with long-term stability, high output and no zero shifts.
The AST4100 sensors provide gauge and compound gauge pressure measurement in pressure ranges from 0 - 25 to 0 - 10,000 PSI.
Units also are available in compound ranges as well as in bar and Kg/cm2 outputs.
The competitively priced AST4100 Pressure Sensors are available in outputs of 10mV/V, 0.5-4.5 V ratiometric, 1-5V, 1-6V, 0.25-5V, or 4-20mA.
Units offer accuracy of better than 0.5% BFSL at 25C (77F) and long-term stability of +0.25% full scale output per annum.
AST4100 Pressure Sensors are available in a variety of pressure ports.
Cable is available in varying lengths.
Inline connector options are also available.
