Industrial pressure transmitter - Model PK1V

Pressure transmitter PK1V

Product description

Featured with a state-of-the-art digital compensation and a modular design, the PK1V is a compact, rugged pressure transmitter with a sanitary flush diaphragm that utilizes the latest leading-edge technologies to measure pressure. It is our most accurate, most precise and most versatile pressure transmitter with a flush diaphragm. The pressure transducer offers unequaled performance, excellent stability and proven reliability. It is designed for any application that requires a high pressure measurement. The modular design can serve as the basis for a unique custom solution without sacrificing price and high performance.

The sensing element is a solid-state, piezoresistive MEMS silicon die. This technology provides excellent repeatability, increased long-term stability and reliability, and virtually no hysteresis. The silicon strain gage is fitted into a 316L stainless steel package and is completely isolated from the media.

The sensor signal is digitized, compensated and processed by a powerful, low power 32-bit microcontroller. It is then converted back to an amplified analog signal. The digital electronics ensures precise calibration of all critical parameters and achieves very high precision, thermal stability and compensation of all repeatable errors. Each unit is fully tested, compensated and calibrated for pressure and temperature. Each transmitter is shipped with a traceable calibration card.

The electronics is packaged in a hermetically-sealed all-welded 316 stainless steel housing enabling the PK1V to be immersed in water or pressure washed without internal leakage. This design makes the PK1V ideal for pressure measurements that can involve wet, corrosive or sterile media in the most severe environments.
