Hygienic pressure transmitter

September 2019 Pressure Measurement & Control

The pressure transmitter Jumo Taros S46 H – available locally from ASSTech – is designed according to the hygienic requirements for precision measurement and longevity. The high-level protection type up to IP69 and the fully-welded, compact design enables residue-free cleaning and high temperature capability for SIP and CIP processes. Its excellent active temperature compensation ensures exact pressure measurements and process reliability.

The new instrument is ideal for the food industry, sterilisers and autoclaves, in fact, for all hygienic pressure measure-ment applications. The unit also ensures maximum operational safety in the pharmaceutical, medical and biotechnological industries. Protection classes from IP65 to IP69 enable use in all areas, regardless of environmental influences. The transmitter is compliant to FDA regulations.

The default measuring ranges are between 0 and 100 bar. An autoclave version is available for specialised applications. The medium temperature can be between -40 and 125°C. For a maximum of 1 hour per day, the medium temperature can even be at 140°C, which is ideal for CIP and SIP applications. Linearity and long-term stability are both low at 0,1%. Zero point correction can easily be carried out with a magnet (e.g. after the autoclave process). This way, the pressure transmitter delivers reliable measured values, even over a long period.
