Description

The Druck PTX 600 Series Pressure Transmitter offer high levels of stability, versatility and measurement accuracy from a robust device.

Druck's well proven silicon technology has been developed to provide a miniature micro-machined diaphragm which is electrostatically bonded to a glass substrate and stitch bonded within a glass to metal seal assembly to provide exceptional thermal and stress isolation.

The glass to metal seal is completed with an electron beam welded Hastelloy C276 isolation diaphragm and 316 stainless steel pressure port. The reduced internal volume of this assembly and advanced design features of the sensor significantly improves the stability and thermal performance of the transmitter.

The two-wire electronics incorporate power supply regulation and amplifier stages with independent zero and span controls, reverse polarity and over voltage protection with an RFI bulkhead providing feedthrough filters within the body tube assembly.

The PTX 600 Series provides the user with a high accuracy, high stability pressure transmitters, based upon well proven techniques with the benefit of the latest sensor and electronics technology within a rugged, compact design able to withstand the severity of industrial sites and still provide the performance of a precision instrument.

A high level of protection against electrical interference has been combined with surface mount components and total potting of the electronics to ensure integrity under high levels of shock and vibration, with environmental ratings dependant upon the electrical connection selected.

The PTX 600 Series features high accuracy, 0.08% FS Best Straight Line for the combined effects of non-linearity, hysteresis and repeatability, and to fully represent operating conditions, the thermal effects are expressed as a maximum change in output from the calibration at room temperature.
