Pressure transmitter handles all media

Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 26, 2005

The Model 517 is an all media submersible pressure transmitter designed to provide accurate performance and readings from 30in to 1200ft of liquid.

Billed as one of the most durable pressure transmitters on the market, the Model 517 is an all media submersible pressure transmitter designed to provide accurate performance and readings from 30in to 1200ft of liquid.

In the fracturing process the titanium Model 517 often exceeds expectations.

The Model 517 features an all-welded stainless steel design, coupled with customer specified cable to ensure a media proof seal.

The piezoresistive sensor provides high accuracy and stability with an improved accuracy version available down to 0.05% FSO nonlinearity.

The internal circuitry of the Model 517 provides lightning protection with FM/CSA Intrinsic Safety approvals available.

The shielded 4-20mA signal minimises potential outside interference and signal degradation over long cable lengths.

(mV/V output is also optionally available).

In addition to competitive pricing, other features include an end cap with a 0.25in NPT pressure port for validating calibration of the unit against a known pressure source and an optional end cap for use when weights are required.
