Function
The process pressure acts on a piezo-resistive semiconductor
measuring bridge through a remote seal and a transmission liq-
uid. The pressure transmitter converts the pressure values into a
load-independent current.
A compensation network makes the output signal largely inde-
pendent of the ambient temperature. As a result of a specially
adapted remote seal connection with minimized volume, the in-
fluence of the process temperature on the output signal is
greatly reduced compared to a conventional screw connection.
The pressure transmitters can be powered with a non-regulated
DC voltage of 10 to 30 V. Output signals common to measuring
technology are available.

ered as a guideline for a standard design. We will produce a detailed
system calculation on request. Systems with reduced remote seal errors
are available on request.
