Introduction

 

Adopting mature high-precision sensing technology, this coplanar pressure transmitter covers measuring ranges from 20 mbar to 100 bar with segmented minimum span, LRL/URL limit values and unilateral overload protection clearly defined for each grade. It provides superior accuracy of ±0.05%/±0.075% URL when TD ≤ 5, with dedicated accuracy formulas for higher turndown ratios, meeting high-standard process measurement requirements.

Boasting outstanding long-term stability of ±0.2% SPAN per decade, the device quantifies temperature drift, supply voltage drift and mounting position influence with fixed compensation coefficients; position-induced deviation can be eliminated via on-site zero reset. It has passed eight full EMC interference immunity tests complying with IEC international standards, guaranteeing stable signal output in complex industrial electromagnetic environments.

The transmitter outputs standard 4–20 mA DC analog signal integrated with HART protocol, supporting two sets of power supply specifications for standard and intrinsically safe applications separately, with clear load resistance limits and maximum 1000m signal transmission distance. IP67 ingress protection ensures stable operation within wide ambient temperature and humidity ranges, while diverse fill fluids expand its adaptability to high/low temperature corrosive media. The sensor and electronic damping time are separately configurable, paired with definite turn-on, reset and response time indicators, making it easy for system integration and on-site commissioning in differential pressure flow measurement, tank liquid level detection and closed-loop process control loops.
