Submersible pressure transmitters for Class I, Div. 1

Submersible pressure transmitters are optimized for detecting the level of water or other media with similar density in challenging industrial environments including wastewater and irrigation systems and tanks containing liquids such as gas and diesel.

The PT4500 and PT4510 submersible pressure transmitters are

optimized for detecting the level of water or other media with similar density

in challenging industrial environments including wastewater and irrigation

systems and tanks containing liquids such as gas and diesel. The PT4510

submersible pressure transmitter was designed for low-level applications of up

to 400 inches; the PT4500 is available in ranges up to 100 psig.

To deliver accurate level detection, a transmitter is placed

at the bottom of the tank holding the liquid, and the transmitter then converts

the pressure reading to an analog 4-20 mA output signal. The electrical

connection to the transmitter is routed through the top of the tank and

contains power and signal wires. It additionally includes a breathing tube that

is used as a reference port to determine the atmospheric pressure outside of

the tank.

These IP68-rated, stainless steel pressure transmitters may

be used in industrial applications, as well as hazardous classified areas. The

transmitters carry UL/cUL 913 approval for use in Class I, Division 1, Groups C

and D locations when installed with an approved barrier.
