PTX/PMP 1200 Series
Industrial Pressure Transmitters
For over 25 y ears Druck has manufactured precision
pressure sensors with a capability to meet critical
applications in industrial, aerospace, and researc h
environments.
The PTX/PMP 1200 Series is a complete range of pressure
transmitters designed to optimize the relationship between
price and performance while providing flexibility from
a standard production device.
At the heart of the 1200 Series
is an advanced, high stability
pressure measurement
element, micro-machined from
single crystal silicon within
Druck’s own Class 100
processing facility. The
silicon element is mounted
within a high integrity glass to
metal seal and is fully isolated
from thepressure media by a
hastelloy isolation diaphragm,
electron beam welded to the
front of the glass to metal seal.
Druck’s proprietary low oil volume isolation allows fast
dynamic response plus minimal thermal error . The high output
silicon allows for high overload capability.
Silicon wafers being loaded
into an oxidation furnace.
Applications include general purpose industrial,
refrigeration, oil & gas well head monitoring and
control, compressor performance monitoring
and static pressure measurements in flow
applications.
Surface mount electronics condition the output from the
silicon diaphragm, correct for thermally induced errors, and
configure the output to the required 4-20 mA or 1-5 Vdc
output. Advanced design features built into the electronic
circuitry enable minimum sensor size with the utmost
reliability. The electronics incorporate power supply
regulation, reverse polarity, overvoltage and shor t circuit
protection, coupled with EMC protection components.
The fully encapsulated solid state design ensures integrity of
product under high levels of shock and vibration, with an
ingress protection rating of NEMA 4X, depending on electrical
termination selected.
A fully tested pressure core is stocked in quantity , requiring
only the addition of the electrical termination. Prior to
shipping, the sensor is adjusted to meet the particular
pressure range and units and terminated with the electrical
connection.
Some configurations allow access to zero and span
potentiometers for adjustments during set up and
calibration. Others are fixed and cannot be adjusted.
A range of stainless steel pressure adapters are available to
modify the standard 1/4”NPT female pressure port.
The PTX/PMP 1200 Series is ideally suited to meet the
rigorous demands of the Industrial, Automotive, Aerospace
and Oil & Gas markets. The PMP 1200 is designed for
applications where batteries and/or solar powered systems
require very low power consumption. The PTX/PMP 1240 is
also being qualified for Class I, Div 1 Explosion-proof
service.
Computerized testing
and calibration of
pressure transducers.
