165 Low Differential Pressure Transducer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Model 165 Series consists of low range differential pressure transducers and transmitters, featuring a stainless steel pressure sensor and enclosure, with a plastic cover meeting NEMA 1 requirements. These units are protected against short circuits and incorrect wiring.
Specifications: The pressure range varies from 0 to 0.1"WC to 0 to 100"WC, available in both unidirectional and bidirectional formats. Outputs include 0 to 5VDC, 0 to 10VDC for transducers, and 4 to 20 mA for transmitters. Accuracy options are 0.6%, 0.4%, or 0.25% at room temperature. The sensor is made from stainless steel and glass, ensuring corrosion resistance and stability.
Performance Data: Accuracy at room temperature ranges from ±0.60%FS to ±0.25%FS. Non-linearity, hysteresis, and non-repeatability are specified, with thermal effects and compensated range detailed. Maximum line pressure and overpressure are both 15 PSI. Stability is ±0.5% FS/YR, with a warm-up time of 5 seconds.
Environmental and Physical Description: Operating temperature is 0 to 170°F, with storage temperature from -40 to 185°F. The enclosure is made from stainless steel and PC+ABS alloy, rated 94V-0. The unit weighs 5.8 oz (165g).
Applications: Suitable for HVAC and VAV control, clean rooms, duct static pressure measurement, draft control, furnace air flow control, and power plant air flow monitoring.
Features: Includes 15 PSI overpressure protection, incorrect wiring protection, nonstandard pressure ranges, true zero output for voltage units, and RoHS compliance.
Electrical Data: Voltage circuit is 3-wire, with excitation of 12-32VDC/12-30VAC. Current circuit is 2-wire, with excitation of 12-32VDC. Outputs are protected against incorrect wiring.
Ordering Information: Pressure units are available in Pascal and in. W.C., with various ranges and types. Outputs and accuracy levels are customizable, with options for certificates and mounting flanges.

165 Low Differential Pressure Transducer-1

The Model 165 Series are low range differential pressure transducers and transmitters. Each unit features a stainless steel pressure sensor, a stainless steel enclosure and a plastic cover, which meets the NEMA 1 requirement. The electrical terminal screws and adjustment holes are concealed beneath a detachable plastic cap. All units are fully protected against short circuiting and incorrect wiring. The Model 165 Series are available for full scale pressure range from 0 to 0.1"WC till 0 to 100"WC. Both unidirectional and bidirectional pressure ranges are offered. The output of the Model 165 Pressure Transducer is available in two versions: 0 to 5VDC and 0 to 10VDC, where 0VDC is true zero without offset. The output of Model 165 Pressure Transmitter is 4 to 20 mA. All units are temperature compensated. The accuracy can be 0.6%, 0.4% or 0.25% at room temperature. The patented variable capacitance pressure sensor is constructed by stainless steel and glass, no glue or other organics. That provides excellent performance, corrosion resistance and long-term stability. Additionally, our unique production setup allows us to accommodate special orders for nonstandard pressure ranges (e.g. -0.5"WC to +3.5"WC). Standard Optional Optional 40 to 170° F(4 to 77°C) 15PSI(100kPa) 15PSI(100kPa) in Positive or Negative Direction for all Ranges ±0.5% FS/YR 5 seconds to meet specifications Each unit is calibrated in the vertical position. For best accuracy, adjust zero of the unit if it is mounted in other position. It is not necessary to adjust the sensitivity. * RSS of Non-Linearity, Hysteresis, and Non-Repeatability. 0 to 170°F (-18 to 77C) -40 to 185° F(-40 to 85°C) Terminal Strip 3/16” O.D. barbed brass for 1/8” I.D. push-on tubing Accessible under the small cap Typically air or similar non-conducting gases Stainless Steel and PC+ABS Alloy, 94V-0 Rated 5.8OZ/165g See Diagram 1 for outline and dimensions. alpha" instruments Applications: ■ HVAC and VAV Control ■ Clean Rooms and Isolation Rooms ■ Duct Static Pressure Measurement ■ Draft Control and Fume Hood Control ■ Furnace Air Flow Control ■ Power Plant Air Flow Monitor and Control Features • 15 PSI Over Pressure • Incorrect Wiring Protection • Nonstandard Pressure Ranges • True Zero Output for Voltage Unit • Meets C€ Conformance Standards • RoHS Compliant Performance Data Accuracy* (at room temp) Non-Linearity (BFSL) Hysteresis Non-Repeatability Thermal Effects: Zero/Span Shift (/°F) Compensated Range Maximum Line Pressure Overpressure Stability Warm-up Time Position Effect Operating Temperature Storage Temperature Electrical Termination Pressure Fittings Zero & Span Adjustment Pressure Media Enclosure Weight Installation Visit us Online: www.alphainstruments.com E-mail: [email protected] 978-264-29
