etra Systems Model 230 is a high output,
low differential pressure transducer
designed for wet to wet differential
S
pressure measurements of liquids or gases. A
fast-response capacitance sensor and signal
conditioned electronic circuitry provide a highly
accurate, linear analog output proportional to
pressure. Both unidirectional and bidirectional
pressure ranges are available for applications
with line pressure up to 250 psig.
A unique isolation system transmits the motion
of the differential pressure sensing diaphragm
from the high line pressure environment (e.g.
corrosive liquids) to the dry (air) enclosure where
it moves one of a pair of capacitance plates
proportionally to the diaphragm movement. All
parts exposed to the pressure media are stainless steel and elastomer seals. The 230 has a
NEMA 4/IP65 rated package to withstand
environmental effects. This system responds to
pressure changes approximately 20 times faster

than conventional fluid-filled transducers. The
electronic circuit linearizes output vs. pressure and
compensates for thermal effects of the sensor.
The Model 230 can be
supplied with a 3-valve
manifold assembly (ordered
as Pressure Fitting Code V)
to protect against excessive
differential overpressure,
which may occur during
installation, start-up or
shut-down. The 230 bleed ports allow for total
elimination of air in the line and pressure
cavities. The manifold’s rugged, yet compact,
construction requires minimum space for
installation. If the Model 230 is ordered with the
3-valve manifold, the system is shipped completely assembled and ready for wall or pipe
mounting. If 3-Valve Manifold Assembly is ordered
separately without 230 transducer, order as
DPT 3-VALVE.

*The zero will shift slightly when high differential overpressure is applied. The shift may be
as much as ±10% FS with overpressure applied to the low pressure port. Other parameters
(sensitivity, linearity, etc) will not shift. If the overpressure is normally only in one direction,
the user may apply this overpressure to preset the sensor. Subsequent overload of less
magnitude will not cause additional shift. The unit is pr e-zero ed at the factory after application of maximum overload pressure to the high pressure port.
