Description
BASI Model BPT108 Pressure Transmitter uses as its measuring principle, the well known and field proven technique of sensing a crystal silicon chip and a diaphragm micromachined into the chip, enhanced by surface mount electronics. Designed for process control applications, these 2-wire transmitters generate a 4-20mA signal proportional or characterized to the applied pressure. This signal can be transmitted over a pair of twisted wires through long distances (limited only by the wire resistance and load). Remarkable features of the transmitters are its 0.1% high accuracy and non-linearity and light weight. The pressures are directly applied to the isolating diaphragm that provide isolation and resistance against process fluid corrosion.The electronic circuit is extremely versatile and accurate. Transmitter performance is improved by continuous monitoring of the sensor temperature and corresponding corrections. A local display permits easy reading
