Product catalog summary
Overview: The DCT 531i is a precision pressure transmitter designed by BD SENSORS GmbH, featuring a stainless steel sensor with high accuracy and excellent thermal behavior. It is equipped with an RS485 Modbus RTU interface for reliable data transmission over long distances.
Specifications: The transmitter offers a nominal pressure range from 0 to 100 mbar up to 0 to 400 bar, with an accuracy of 0.1% FSO according to IEC 60770. It supports digital output via RS485 with Modbus RTU protocol and operates on a supply voltage of 9 to 32 VDC.
Performance: The device ensures long-term stability of ≤ ± 0.1% FSO per year and a measuring rate of 500 Hz. It has a thermal error of ≤ ± 0.02% FSO per 10 K within a compensated range of -20 to 80 °C.
Mechanical and Electrical Features: The DCT 531i is constructed with stainless steel housing and offers various mechanical connections. It is protected against short-circuit and reverse polarity, with an ingress protection rating of IP67. The device is vibration and shock-resistant according to DIN standards.
Applications: Ideal for plant and machine engineering, and the energy industry, the DCT 531i is suitable for precise pressure measurement applications such as test benches and leakage tests.
Optional Versions: Customizable options include different pressure ports, welded pressure sensors, and customer-specific versions.
Compliance: The transmitter complies with EMC Directive 2014/30/EU and Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU for devices with permissible overpressure > 200 bar.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed configuration options for Modbus RTU settings, including address, baud rate, and parity, along with mechanical and electrical connection options.

datasheet DCT 531i-1

DCT 531i Precision Pressure Transmitter with RS485 Modbus RTU Stainless Steel Sensor accuracy according to IEC 60770: 0.1 % FSO The DCT 531i is characterized by very good accuracy and excellent temperature behaviour and is therefore ideally suited for applications where precise pressure measurement is necessary (e.g. test benches, leakage tests, etc.). Nominal pressure from 0 ... 100 mbar up to 0 ... 400 bar Output signal RS485 with Modbus RTU protocol Thanks to the integrated RS485 interface (based on the MODBUS RTU protocol), reliable and robust data transmission is available, which also works without problems over longer distances. Since the DCT 531i works directly with a master e.g. is coupled to a SPS, conversion losses of an analogue input card are avoided. transfer of pressure and temperature value perfect thermal behaviour excellent long term stability reset function Different mechanical and electrical connections are available so that the DCT 531i can be used in various applications without any problems. pressure port G 1/2" flush up to max. 40 bar pressure sensor welded customer specific versions Plant and machine engineering Energy industry BD SENSORS GmbH BD-Sensors-Straße 1 D - 95199 Thierstein www.bdsensors.de info@
