1.1 Function and configuration

VEGABAR 15 is a process pressure trans­mitter with a piezoresistive sensor element for
pressure measurement of gas, steam or
liquids between 1 bar and 600 bar (relative
pressure). For use in dense, non-uniform and
cristallizing products, a version with flush
diaphragm is available. A standardised
4 … 20 mA current signal is available as
output signal.
