Pressure transmitter offers high level of flexibility
Baumer says that its new general purpose pressure transmitter series is designed to offer a high level of flexibility to suit a wide range of applications.
The sensor, which is based on Transbar technology with a thick film ceramic measuring cell, is also suitable for applications with aggressive media. The Baumer FlexProgrammer enables the transmitter's easy configuration.
Modularly constructed, the PBSN pressure transmitter series is said to offer a flexible design and the Transbar technology based measuring cells are suitable for gauge as well as for absolute pressure. They cover a measuring range from 0…1 bar up to 0…600 bar. According to Baumer, the standard accuracy is at 0.7%, or optionally 0.5%, of the full scale.
The thick film technology is based on a ceramic support material for the pressure measuring cell. This material is chemically neutral and compatible with most media, including very aggressive ones.
A 4…20mA output signal or voltage output signals are available and all common electrical connections and cable types are offered. PBSN transmitters are delivered programmed according to customer requirements, or they can easily be reconfigured using the Baumer FlexProgrammer 9701 hand held communicator tool. The PBSN can be delivered with different process connections made of stainless steel. Moreover, a wide range of gasket ring types (NBR, EPDM, FKM, FFKM, CR and more) are available.
The PBSN is constructed using a fully welded stainless steel housing with a standard IP65 rating, with IP67 available, depending on the type of electrical connection. It is abrasive and chemically resistant which makes it suitable for numerous general purpose industrial applications in the sectors of pneumatic, chemical and petrochemical, energy production, HVAC and automobile industry.
