About the APR3800 Pressure Transmitter
The APR3800 series offer a range pressure transmitters with integrated or remote barrier seals for applications where direct media contact must be prevented. Robustly constructed from stainless steel, this range of pressure trans-mitters incorporates the latest strain gauge technology together with a custom IC amplifier offering excellent stability and accuracy over a long service life. The range offers a stable and accurate output signal of 4-20 mA with options for 0-5 V and 0-10 V.
Typical applications include food processing, pharmaceutical, petrochemi-cal, waste water and slurry handling. In these installations the process media may corrode the sensing diaphragm or clog the narrow pressure inlet on a standard transmitter. The flush membrane can be easily cleaned for long term reliability and outstanding performance. For hygienic applications the APR3800 series provides a sanitary grade pressure fitting. Seals are available in a variety of forms and materials for a wide range of applications and can be directly attached to the proposed connection or remotely via stainless steel capillary. Pressure ranges available from 0-200 mbar to 0-40 bar.
An optional ATEX and IECEx approved versions of this range are available for explosion protection for flammable gases (zone 0), dusts (zone 20) and mining areas (group I M1).
