New Jumo pressure transmitter with ATEX approval

March 2016 Pressure Measurement & Control

The new Jumo Midas S21 Ex pressure transmitter is designed for safe pressure measurement in critical areas. The system is hermetically sealed and has ATEX approval.

Available in measuring ranges are 0,25 to 100 bar relative pressure and 1 to 25 bar absolute pressure medium temperatures can be sensed between -40 and 85°C. The device is manufactured completely from stainless steel and is characterised by high chemical resistance. The high overload capability and long-term stability of the piezoresistive silicon sensor ensures optimal process reliability, and safe process operation is ensured, even in the event of damage – high burst pressures of up to 400 bar.

With ATEX approval, the device is particularly suitable for pressure measurement in solvent cleaning systems, painting plants, or cooling systems with ammonia. In addition, it is also ideal for use on pumps or compressors in mechanical and plant engineering as well as in the chemical industry.

This new Ex variant to the Midas range is available with various electrical and process connections.
