New pressure transducer responds 20
times faster
Boiswood is now supplying Setra's Model 230 high output, low differential pressure transducer, designed for wet to wet differential pressure measurement of liquids and gases
Boiswood, the specialist distributors of components for gas and liquid control, are now supplying Setra's Model 230 high output, low differential pressure transducer, designed for wet to wet differential pressure measurement of liquids and gases The transducer has a unique isolation system that transmits the motion of a differential pressure-sensing diaphragm from the high line pressure environment to the dry enclosure, where it moves one of a pair of capacitance plates proportionally to the diaphragm movement

Differential pressure transducer responds faster
Setra's Model 230 high output, low differential pressure transducer has an optional 3-valve manifold assembly to protect against accidental overpressure during installation in wet/wet differential use
This system responds to pressure changes approximately 20 times faster than conventional liquid filled transducers, The Model 230, which operates in the pressure ranges 0-1 to 0-100psid, features a fast response capacitance sensor and advanced signal conditioning circuitry to provide a highly accurate, linear analogue output of 4-20mA proportional to pressure.
It comes with standard 1/4"NPT pressure connections and a standard 1/2" electrical barrier terminal block with conduit enclosure and 0.875 diameter conduit opening.
The low-cost transducers are ideally suited for process control, energy management, flow and liquid level measurements and determining pressure drops across filters.
They are available with uni-directional and bi-directional pressure ranges for applications with line pressures up to 250psig.
