CD helps pressure transducer specification
Pressure Systems has updated its specifiers' CD that details the company's lines of KPSI level and pressure transducers and Quartzonix pressure standards.
This eliminates the need for an additional connector to link the product to a monitoring device's comms port.
The Series 970 is ideal for use as a precision barometer in semiconductor photolithography, pressure calibration, and meteorological reference applications.
The Series 970 Intelligent Quartzonix pressure standard combines a vibrating quartz beam technology with low power miniature digital electronics to achieve a fully compensated +/-0.01% FS static accuracy and a resolution of +/-0.001% FS.
The pressure standard has a stability of better than +/-0.01% FS over six months.
With a low power consumption design and a programmable sleep mode, the Series 970 is useful in remote battery-powered applications.
The pressure standard is also available with an oil-filled capillary tube for water level measurement applications, including storage tanks.
The Series 970 is available in pressure ranges up to 500lb/in2(a), including barometric pressure range of 11-16lb/in2(a), with pressure output available in a wide range of engineering units.
Standard calibrated temperature range is 0 to 60C, with an optional range of -20 to +70C available.
Acceleration sensitivity is +/-0.004% FS/G and vibration sensitivity is +/-0.001% FS/G.
Pricing for the Series 970 intelligent Quartzonix pressure standard with an RS232/RS485 interface starts at $2795.
Delivery is 8 to 12 weeks ARO.
