UK agent appointed for pressure transmitters

UK sales agent appointed for stainless-steel, flush diaphragm pressure transmitter range.

Roxspur Measurement and Control has been appointed UK sales agent for the PMC stainless-steel, flush diaphragm pressure transmitter range, to complement its UK made Sensit ceramic strain gauge based pressure transmitters.

PMC has specialised in providing rugged stainless-steel pressure transmitters since 1963, originally developed for the paper and pulp processing industry.

Since then, the non-clogging flush mounted designs have been adopted for use throughout the food processing, beverage and pharmaceutical industries, particularly on slurries.

US customers include International Paper, Eastman Kodak, Proctor and Gamble and Coca-Cola Bottling.

The latest products from PMC include a smart pressure, level and vacuum transmitter for slurries, liquids and gases.

With rugged stainless-steel housings, the units are particularly suited to corrosive and acidic environments, providing sealed, submersible housings, which also suit hygienic applications.

Standard fitting uses a 5.1cm tri-clover connection.

The Hart protocol allows easy access to the configuration, test and detailed set-up of the transmitter, and the electronics can be remotely mounted away from the sensor for submerged or otherwise inaccessible sensor locations.

David Wickens, Sales Manager for Sensit pressure products at Roxspur, said: "PMC has developed a particular range of flush diaphragm pressure transmitters, originally for the paper industry, but these have been expanded into other areas, providing pressure measurement in some very difficult industrial applications".

"These products complement the Sensit range, which primarily use ceramic-faced sensors, and are frequently custom configured for embedding into machinery".
