Description

The PXT Series pressure transmitter is a state-of-
the-art instruments providing 4 to 20 mA
outputs. It features a precision micro-machined
silicon diaphragm with fully welded stainless
steel pressure port for greater accuracy, stability
and a wide range of compatibility.
Silicon technology is used to provide a miniature
micro-machined diaphragm which is
electrostatically bonded to a glass substrate and
is then stitch-bonded within a glass to metal seal
assembly to provide exceptional thermal and
stress isolation. This technology assures you of
high accuracy and stability over a wide range of
operating conditions.
The enclosure is made of 316 stainless steel and
all wetted parts are 316L stainless steel or
HASTELLOY C276.

Applications

The PXT can be used in applications such as
Compressors, Engines, Process Control, Liquid
Level and Pumps.
