These pressure sensor models were designed specifically to meet the requirements of accurate pressure measurement in hostile, harsh environments like in steel and aluminum rolling mill applications. Based on the popular P98x 4 ... 20 mA two wire series, the P981-01xx offer unique features not found on other types of pressure transducers.
- Measurement ranges 0 … 350 bar [others on request]
- High overload capability
- Pressure connection with O-ring
- Built-in pressure restrictor
- High vibration and shock resistance
- High accuracy
- Integral electronics in 4-20mA 2-wire
- Transient suppressor to protect against voltage spikes
- Reverse voltage protection
All pressure transducers incorporate a proprietary fatigue enhanced diaphragm, which extends long term reliability and reduces degradation caused by a high number of pressure cycles, to withstand a large number of pressure cycles without changes in zero position.
The P981-01xx has built-in transient suppressor diodes to eliminate the effects of line voltage transient and is EMC compliant to CE Standards. The pressure transducer has also been fitted with an integral pressure restrictor virtually eliminating the possibility of damage due to very fast pressure changes, which might cause the sensor diaphragm into mechanical resonance. The pressure connection is made by steel mill proven ¼” or ½” male adaptor with an 'o'-ring for sealing.
The electrical termination is done by a 6 m long, six core cable. As an option, the transmitter is available with longer cable or with a 6-pin male connector (female mating part included). The transducers are available in measurement ranges from 0 ... 7 bar sg to 0 ... 700 bar sg. (Please change “xxxBAS“ to range in bar).
