1. INTRODUCTION
The MPT-P&T Series transmitter is a +/- 1.0% accuracy sensor ideal for general
purpose melt pressure measurements requiring simple installation, repeatability and
reliability. The MPT-P&T transmitters provide the industry standard 4 - 20 mA amplified
signal designed to work with Recording Indicators and PLCs. The MPT-P&T comes
equipped with adjustable zero and span ports. Optional thermocouple or RTD
configurations are available to provide melt temperature. The MPT-P&T features a 1/2-20
UNF thread for installation in standard transducer mounting holes and can be supplied with
a variety of electrical connections.
