Enhanced Submersible Precision Pressure Transducer
Inertial Aerosystems has introduced a fully submersible version of its established PPTR Ruggedised SMART Digital Pressure Transducer. The unit, manufactured by US based Honeywell, incorporates a SEA CON electrical connector, which is qualified for use in depths in excess of 2000 metres. Codenamed the PPTR Submersible, it has an environmentally sealed stainless steel construction and is designed for use in severe conditions, primarily as a depth sensor in sea water and other corrosive environments.
CombThe PPTR can measure depths in excess of 2000 metres (3000 psi). Efficient system design ensures no additional signal compensation is needed, and data acquisition can connect up to 89 units on a multidrop bus if using the optional RS-485 capability (RS232 standard). This versatile product can be installed with both existing and new systems.
Ideal where space and weight are at a premium, this rugged unit measures 132.7mm x 34.7mm and weighs 424 grams.
