Product catalog summary
Overview: The DS 400 is an intelligent electronic pressure switch designed by BD Sensors GmbH, featuring a stainless steel sensor and a digital display. It is suitable for various industrial applications, including plant and machine engineering, heating and air conditioning, and environmental engineering.
Specifications: The DS 400 offers a nominal pressure range from 0 to 600 bar, with accuracy options of 0.35% FSO as standard and 0.25% FSO as an option. It includes 1 or 2 independent PNP contacts and an analogue output of 4-20 mA in 2-wire or 3-wire configurations.
Features: The device includes a 4-digit LED display that is rotatable and configurable. Optional versions include an intrinsically safe version for gases and dust, a welded pressure sensor, and customer-specific versions.
Technical Data: The DS 400 is designed to withstand overpressure and burst pressure, with specific values depending on the nominal pressure. It offers high repeatability and switching frequency, with a delay time adjustable from 0 to 100 seconds. The device is protected against short-circuits and reverse polarity.
Environmental and Mechanical Stability: The DS 400 operates within a medium temperature range of -40 to 125°C and is compliant with electromagnetic compatibility standards. It is mechanically stable, with vibration resistance up to 10 g RMS and shock resistance up to 500 g.
Materials: The pressure port and diaphragm are made of stainless steel, with options for different seals and a welded version for specific pressure ports.
Explosion Protection: The device is ATEX certified for use in explosive environments, with specific safety technical maximum values and permissible temperatures outlined for different zones.
Miscellaneous: The DS 400 features a 4-digit LED display with programmable digital damping and measured value update. It has an ingress protection rating of IP67 and a weight of approximately 400 g. The device is CE-conformant with relevant EU directives.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed ordering codes for various configurations, including pressure range, analogue output, contact type, and mechanical connections.
