PDCR 1800 transducer (mV output) and PTX 1800 transmitter (4 to 20 mA output) - 1800 series - high performance level pressure sensors - 2

Reliability and data quality The combination of a high technology sensor, together with advanced signal conditioning and packaging techniques, provides an ideal long term solution for reliable, accurate and economical level measurements. The micromachined silicon element is sealed within an all-titanium pressure module assembly, fully isolated from the pressure media. This is contained in a slimline, welded titanium body, terminated in an injection moulded cable assembly. The cable features a Kevlar® strain cord and is IP68 rated for indefinite immersion in 700 mH2O, with a selection of...

PDCR 1800 transducer (mV output) and PTX 1800 transmitter (4 to 20 mA output) - 1800 series - high performance level pressure sensors - 3

1800 series specifications Excitation voltage PDCR 1800 (mV) 10 V at 5 mA nominal Ø17.5 mm M14 x 1.5 exposed thread with nose cone removed Output is ratiometric to supply within 2.5 V to 12 V limits. 185 mm approx. (242 mm with Lightning Surge Arrestor) The minimum supply voltage (VMIN) which must appear across the pressure transmitter terminals is 9 V and is given by the following equation: VMIN = VSUP - (0.02 x RLOOP) Where VSUP is supply voltage in Volts, and RLOOP is total loop resistance in Ohms Pulse power excitation Recommended power-on time before output sample: • PDCR 1800: 10 ms •...
