Keller has a complete range of pressure transmitters for use in hazardous areas. These intrinsically safe transmitters offer measurement ranges of between 0,2-1000 bar and can be used for measurements of all types in areas subject to explosion hazards in Group II (Gas). Individual types are also approved for Group I (Mining) and Group II (Dust).
Common features of all Y-line pressure transmitters include low error with correspondingly high measurement accuracy. Thanks to the integrated temperature sensor and an additional digital circuit, the range of operating temperatures can be divided into as many as 120 sections with a width of 1,5 Kelvin. During factory calibration, a mathematical model is used to calculate individual compensation values for TK zero point and TK amplification for each of these sections; the values are then stored in the transmitter. During operation, these values are fed into the analog signal path according to the temperature, without reducing the 2 kHz signal processing dynamic. A relevant total error band for measurement purposes of ±0,8 %FS can therefore be attained over the typical temperature range of -10 to 80°C. This includes all error sources, from linearity to range tolerance.
As an additional feature, Keller’s X-line pressure transmitters (Series 30) offer microcontroller-based electronic evaluation to ensure maximum accuracy. Each transmitter is gauged across the entire pressure and temperature range. This measurement data is used to enable correction of all reproducible errors. The user may specify a choice of compensated temperature range at time of purchase, depending upon the application.
A varied selection of structural designs, electrical signals and mechanical connection formats guarantee that these intrinsically safe pressure transmitters can be used for an extensive range of applications.
Users can also choose between 3-wire technology (0-5 V/0-10 V) or 2-wire technology (4-20 mA). On the high-precision pressure transmitters and submersible sensors in Series 30 an RS-485 interface is available in addition to the analogue output.
