Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about the MAD4500 and MAD4510 submersible hydrostatic pressure sensors, designed for use in intrinsically safe areas. These sensors are suitable for a variety of applications including groundwater level measurement, liquid tanks, and waste water canals.
Specifications: The sensors are approved to UL/cUL913 (CSA 157) Class I Div 1, Groups C and D. They offer pressure ranges from 0-2.5 PSIG to 0-100 PSIG, with high-strength stainless steel construction and a wide operating temperature range. The output options include 4-20 mA or 0-5 V, and they are compatible with a wide range of liquids.
Features: Key features include rugged design for harsh environments, EMI/RFI protection, easy installation, and high accuracy with a unique diaphragm technology. The sensors are vented to the atmosphere through the cable's surface end, and a hydrophobic filter is recommended for high-humidity areas.
Performance: At 25˚C (77˚F), the sensors offer an accuracy of < ± 0.25% BFSL, stability of ±0.25% FS per year, and over-range protection of 2X rated pressure. They can withstand over 50 million pressure cycles and have a burst pressure of 5X or 1,250 PSI.
Environmental Conditions: The operating temperature range is -40˚F to 185˚F (-40˚C to 85˚C), with a storage temperature range of -40˚F to 212˚F (-40˚C to 100˚C). The sensors are rated IP-68 for water resistance and can handle shock up to 100G and vibration up to 10G peak.
Electrical Specifications: The sensors require an excitation of 10-28 VDC, with output impedance greater than 10k Ohms for 4-20 mA and less than 100 Ohms for 1-5 VDC. They include reverse polarity protection and have specific cable length recommendations.
Pressure Ranges: The document lists various pressure ranges for both MAD4500 and MAD4510 models, with specific codes for each range. Custom ranges between 0-15 PSI and 0-100 PSI are available upon consultation.

PR Series Hydrostatic Pressure Level Sensors The MAD4500 and MAD4510 submersible pressure sensors are approved to UL/cUL913 (CSA 157) Class I Div 1, Groups C and D for use in intrinsically safe areas with an approved barrier. For pressure ranges from 0-2.5 PSIG to 0-100 PSIG that require a wide range of media compatibility, the submersible series is an excellent solution for level monitoring in both indoor and outdoor applications. With their rugged construction and materials, these pressure sensors offer a wide range of compatibility. Typical applications include: ground water level depth measurement; earthen and concrete dams; liquid tanks; gasoline and diesel fuel tanks; irrigation; and waste water canals. Submersible hydrostatic pressure sensors; tube filter shown at left (P/N 099-00088, sold separately) Madison’s hydrostatic line of liquid leve l sensors utilizes a unique diaphragm technology and solid state design that provides high accuracy, reliability and versatility in various vessel configurations with liquid specific gravity pressure up to 100 PSIG. Should these standard models not match your application, our PR Series Specification Worksheet can be completed and submitted for engineering evaluation and quotation.
