Pressure Measurement & Control


New IGP ­pressure gauge from Foxboro

November 2014 Pressure Measurement & Control

The Foxboro I/A Pressure S series model IGP10S transmitter is an intelligent, two-wire transmitter that provides precise, reliable measurement of gauge pressure and transmits a 4 to 20 mA output with a superimposed HART digital signal for remote configuration and monitoring.

The Foxboro IGP10S reduces inventory costs with a wide range of applications that traditionally require multiple separ­ate transmitters, increases accuracy with the Foxboro multiple calibration technology, and enables customers to track time in service to allow for predictive maintenance.

Key benefits include:

* Industry leading 400:1 turndown.

* Foxboro patented multiple calibration technology.

* Time in service features for advanced diagnostics.

* LCD digital indicator with on-board pushbutton configuration and calibration.

* NEMA 4X and IEC IP66 durable epoxy-coated aluminium or 316 ss housings.

* Co-Ni-Cr, 316L ss, and Nickel alloy (equivalent to Hastelloy(1)) sensor materials for all transmitters.

* Numerous configurations of direct connect or remote mount seals.

* Integral process connections for sanitary, and pulp/paper installations.

* Choice of mounting styles: IAP10 for compact light weight and direct-to-process mounting (bracket option available).

* Rugged and dependable: field-proven silicon strain gauge technology and corrosion resistant epoxy finish.
