Industrial Pressure Transmitters
SPX 3000 Series
The SPX 3000 Series combines modular design
with the latest advances in ASIC technology and
surface-mount electronics. This provides a lightweight, highly reliable and cost-effective solution
for a range of industrial pressure measurement
applications including factory automation, equipment monitoring and control, gas turbines, and any
other application where high-reliability is important. The rugged design with exceptional RFI/EMI
immunity gives the SPX 3000 the lowest “cost-ofownership” in the industry.
At the heart of the transmitter is piezoresistive
silicon technology , extensively proven in aerospace,
sub-sea, oil-field and many other applications
where the highest levels of performance and longterm reliability are required.
The sensor features a Hastelloy C276 isolation
diaphragm and is enclosed in an electron-beam
welded 316L stainless steel body. This rugged construction ensures full compatibility with a wide
range of pressure media and operating conditions.
On-site trimming of the transmitter output is
accomplished via non-interacting potentiometers
located beneath the electrical connector. The SPX
3000 offers the latest advancements in sensor technology from SI Pressure continuing our tradition of
superior performance at unbeatable prices.
