175 Low Differential Pressure Transducer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Model 175 Series consists of low range differential pressure transducers and transmitters, featuring a push-activated ZERO function with an LED indicator. This allows for zero calibration without additional equipment, saving time and cost. The bi-color LED indicates normal operation, overpressure, zero calibration, or damage.
Specifications: The pressure range is from 0 to 0.1"WC to 0 to 100"WC, available in unidirectional and bidirectional options. 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 of stainless steel and glass, ensuring corrosion resistance and stability.
Performance Data: Accuracy ranges from ±0.60%FS to ±0.25%FS. Non-linearity, hysteresis, and non-repeatability are specified, with thermal effects and compensated range detailed. The maximum line pressure and overpressure are 15PSI. Stability is ±0.5% FS/YR, with a warm-up shift of ±0.1%FS.
Environmental and Physical Description: Operating temperature is 0 to 170°F, with storage temperature from -65 to 185°F. The enclosure is made of stainless steel and PC+ABS alloy. The unit weighs approximately 3.8 oz (108g).
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 a bi-color LED for status indication, push button zero calibration, 15 PSI overpressure capability, detachable terminal block, true zero output for voltage units, incorrect wiring protection, and RoHS compliance.
Electrical Data: Voltage circuit is 3-wire, protected against incorrect wiring, with excitation of 13-32VDC. Current circuit is 2-wire, with similar protection and excitation. Outputs are calibrated with specific load requirements.
Ordering Information: Codes are provided for various pressure ranges and types, with options for output type, accuracy, and certification.

175 Low Differential Pressure Transducer-1

The Model 175 Series are low range differential pressure transducers and transmitters. Each unit features a push-activated ZERO function and an associated LED lamp indicator. With a convenient push button, the zero calibration can be performed without any additional equipment. It significantly reduces time and cost for users. The unique bi-color LED indicates if the transducer is at normal operation, over pressure, or in the process of zero calibration. It also reports if the unit is badly damaged. The Model 175 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 175 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 175 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. Standard Optional 35 to 170° F(2 to 77°C) 15PSI(100kPa) 15PSI(100kPa) in Positive or Negative Direction for all Ranges ±0.5% FS/YR ±0.1%FS Position Effect 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. alpha" instruments 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 shift 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 • Green/Red Bi-Color LED to Indicate The Working Status • Push Button Zero Calibration • 15 PSI Over Pressure • Detachable Euro Style Terminal Block • Ture Zero Output for Voltage Unit • Incorrect Wiring Protection • RoHS Compliant Operating Temperature Storage Temperature LED Indication Electrical Termination Pressure Fittings Zero & Span Adjustment Pressure Media Enclosure Weight Installation Green/Red Flashing...
