Pressure Measurement & Control


Versatile and low cost pressure sensors

November 2016 Pressure Measurement & Control

Kobold has on offer to industry the compact and versatile type SEN-98/-99 pressure sensors, using the tried and tested principle of a thick-film ceramic measuring cell which ensures good reliability.

This pressure sensor meets the highest performance demands by virtue of its robust construction, overpressure safety properties, as well as temperature stability and good reproducibility. The unit’s overload protection limit is dependent on the measurement range, of which there are 31, running from -1-0 to 0-600 bar relative pressure or from 0-1 to 0-25 bar absolute pressure. There is a choice of 4-20 mA, 0-5 V or 0-10 V analog outputs for signal transmission.

Fast, on the spot information of the measured pressure is made possible by the practical AUF type plug-on displays and standard sensors have protection class IP65. The wetted parts are stainless steel, ceramic and sealing material FKM. The SEN-98/-99 is manufactured with an accuracy of 0.5% as standard, with an accuracy of 0.25% available as an option.

The optimum design opens up a wide range of applications for pressure sensors, for example, hydraulic systems, compressors, refrigeration industry, welding, vacuum, water and oil, gases.
