Increasing requirements and ever more complex applications also present measuring systems with significant challenges to which they must respond with expanded functionalities – such as improved accuracy and long-term stability. The Sitrans P500 with a new measuring cell and additional static pressure sensor meets the high demands.
The P500 has been developed to meet the expectations for measuring accuracy, ruggedness and user friendliness, and it merges seamlessly into the SITRANS P family. Users can expect differential pressure measurement at the highest level: it guarantees an accuracy of 0,03% as well as outstanding values for the influence of static pressure and temperature on the measured result. In this way, a total performance of 0,09% up to a turndown of 5:1 is achieved using only one measuring cell for different measuring ranges. This means inventory costs can be significantly reduced without sacrificing measurement accuracy for losses in the quality of the measured result. The high long-term stability of the transmitter also reduces maintenance costs thanks to extended calibration intervals, and ensures that you can always rely on the measured results on the long run.
An innovative sensor assembly enables direct connection with process temperatures of up to 125°C even without a remote seal system. With an improved 3-pushbutton operator input concept for setting the device, the Sitrans P500‘s host of diagnostics options can be used conveniently without software. Even curve displays and trend diagrams can be represented on the display for user-friendly process monitoring.
