Pressure transmitter has full range of options
The new Ashcroft A2 transmitter will meet a multitude of pressure sensing needs.
One gauge does the job of three
The Ashcroft digital industrial gauge can be used for any combination of local indication, 4-20mA signalling and switching.
Linearisation of the sensor signal and compensation of the thermal error is done by intelligent digital electronics.
Diverse process connections and chemical seals for food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries are available, added UK Insruments and Controls.
All media wetted parts are stainless steel 1.4435 (316L).
The xact i can be delivered optionally with stainless steelball housing, or with a robust powder-coated aluminium die cast case.
Electrical output is a four 20 mA 2-wire signal; optionally Hart communication is available.
The standard LCD display module is rotatable in the housing and protected by a laminated safety glass window.
Complete configuration can be made via push-buttons on the display module said the company.
Some features include 10:1 turndown ratio of pressure range, 170mbar through to 35 bar ranges, media temperatures up to 300 degrees C, full adjustability of zero, span and damping function by push buttons and it has <+/-0.05 per cent accuracy.
In addition, it has 4-20mA output as standard with optional Hart communication, integrated three-level display with units, text and bar graph and stainless steel ball housing or die cast aluminium housing.
There are also numerous fittings, including inch, dairy pipe, clamp, flanges and varivent.
