Product Overview
The SX-PDDB series remote seal differential pressure transmitter uses a diaphragm seal assembly to prevent process media from directly entering the pressure sensor of the differential pressure transmitter; pressure is transmitted via fill fluid (such as silicone oil) through capillary tubing. The SX-PDDB series is used to measure level, density, pressure, and flow of liquids, gases, or steam, converting the measurement to a 4–20 mA DC HART signal output. It also supports HART, Profibus PA, and RS-485-Modbus communication protocols. The zero-based measuring is 0–1 kPa to 2 MPa (0–0.145 to 290 psi). Remote seal flange rated pressures are: 1.6/4 MPa, 6.4 MPa, 10 MPa, 150 psi, 300 psi, or 600 psi.
