Programmable pressure sensor

January 2001 Sensors & Transducers

Trolex's range of sensors includes the TX6141 smart programmable pressure sensor and the TX6143 smart programmable differential pressure sensor, for gas and liquids.

Features include: high accuracy pressure cell with characterised temperature compensation. Data intelligence gives a standardised output signal for simple servicing. There is a choice of analog output signal, 4-20 mA, 0,4 to 2 V or 5-15 Hz and keypad programmable function calibration, LCD display of signal values and all function mode parameters and simple pushbutton scaling to match on-site parameters, together with offset-elevated zero-volumetric conversions for flexible ease of use.

Programmable turndown and signal transfer characteristics are expressed in true units: square root, tank contents, etc. There is programmable signal damping and display suppression and the device handles pressure ranges from 0-60 MPa (600 bar) gauge, absolute or differential. The TX6141 is intrinsically safe to Euronorm standards.
