Pressure transmitter for liquids and gases

March 2010 Pressure Measurement & Control

The cost efficient Jumo Midas pressure transmitters for measuring relative gauge pressure can be used in both liquid and gaseous media. The units utilise a ceramic thick-film transducer that converts pressure into a standardised voltage or current signal.

The principal advantage to users is the compatibility of the aluminium-oxide ceramic base material with a wide range of media for long operational life. An uncomplicated design minimises the susceptibility to errors.

Measuring ranges from 1,6 to 100 bar with an accuracy of 0,05% are available. Compact in construction, these pressure transmitters are particularly suitable where installation space is restricted, such as compressors and motors.

The stable temperature response ensures precise measurement results. The wide range of pressure connections and electrical connection options cover all typical application situations.
