• FM, CSA intrinsically safe, CE marked

Standard vented cable is polyurethane. Flouropolymer

cable is available on the PTX/PDCR 1280 Series Sensors.

The PTX/PDCR 1230 Series sensors are ideal for use in applications where smaller size is an advantage, such as municipal water supply wells, leachate wells, irrigation projects, etc. The titanium construction also makes the devices suitable for seawater measurement applications.

An advanced micromachined silicon piezoresistive pressure sensor provides excellent performance and resistance to shock and vibration. A tough, polyurethane cable is molded to the transducer body, providing a high integrity, waterproof assembly. The cable is strengthened with Kevlar

so that there is no measurable elongation

when the cable is lowered into deep wells.

The fully isolated, titanium design ensures long term reliable measurements in water and wastewater management, industrial, process and marine applications.

PTX/PDCR 1230 Series

Druck Depth and Level Pressure Sensors

Features

PTX/PDCR 1230 Series is a Druck product. Druck has joined other GE high-technology sensing businesses under a new name

GE Industrial, Sensing.

The PTX/PDCR 1230 Series submersible/depth pressure transducers are specifically designed for depth/level measurements in the groundwater, well water, canals, rivers, and other similar applications. The titanium construction ensures excellent life in the most hostile environments, including corrosive and hazardous chemical applications, as well as environments where icon bacteria may be present. Druck backs its titanium construction with a five year corrosion warranty.
