This signals the presence of the sensor face, when occasionally dried-on concrete has to be manually removed.
The sensor is also mounted behind a separate stainless steel mounting boss, which is replaceable if worn away in use.
The two-wire armoured signal cable can be supplied potted into the sensor, or fitted into a separate terminal housing, which allows simple replacement after any site damage.
The high accuracy electrical output signal is 4-20mA from a 10-32V unregulated DC power supply, with typical standard ranges of 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 bar, from -25C to +100C: other specifications are available to special order.
Sensit is the pressure sensor brand from Roxspur Measurement and Control, an ISO9001:2000 manufacturer.
These high stability strain gauge pressure transducers with high quality ceramic diaphragms, are produced in the Roxspur Bramley factory in the UK.
The Sensit product range includes custom built pressure transducers for demanding OEM applications, as well as standard ranges of sensors and transmitters for industrial measurements.
