Negative gauge reference pressure sensor for measuring vacuum pressures relative to atmospheric pressure. Suction pressure ranges from -40mbar down to -1 bar gauge.
The DMP 331 suction pressure transducer has a silicon piezoresistive sensing element with a vent to atmospheric pressure on the reverse side of the silicon diaphragm which provides a gauge pressure reference. The Silicon chip is protected from the process media by sealing it inside an silicone oil filled capsule with a convoluted isolation diaphragm to allow the transfer of pressure to the semiconductor sensing element.
There is an ATEX approved 4 to 20mA output electronics option for the DMP-331 negative gauge pressure transmitter for intrinsically safe use in hazardous zones where flammable gases could be present.
The DMP331 suction pressure transducer has a variety of configurations with all welded media exposed parts, semi-flush diaphragm, field housing and IP68 buccaneer water-proof connector.
