Interface aids application of pressure standard
A new serial interface has been added to the Series 970 intelligent Quartzonix pressure standard from Pressure Systems to enable users to switch between RS232 and RS485 protocols.
Pressure standards detailed on free CD
Pressure Systems now offers a detailed product CD for the company's line of highly accurate Quartzonix pressure standards.
This makes the transducers ideal for surface and groundwater level measurement and control applications, including well and surface water monitoring, soil remediation and dewatering.
The 6-page datasheet also outlines the transducer cable's use of six wires for sensing the sensor bridge input voltage, which the datalogger uses to compensate for any deviations.
Pressure range specifications for the Series 116 and 126 transducers described in the datasheet include: full scale level ranges from 3 to 70m H20 with custom ranges available; proof pressure of 1.5x full scale; and burst pressure of 2.0x full scale.
Other critical specifications included are static accuracy performance of +/-0.10% full-scale output for the Model 126 and +/-0.25% for the Model 116; a total temperature range of -20 to 60C and millivolt output at 5.0V DC constant voltage excitation from 0.25 to 25mV over the entire level range.
Detailed in the datasheet are design features including a 316SS or optional titanium waterproof housing, Kevlar strength tensioning members to prevent cable elongation, and a unique, self-sealing water block feature in case of minor cuts or abrasions to the cable.
The datasheet also provides information on moisture protection accessories and nose caps options as well as installation tips and ordering information.
