The PCM-1 pressure transmitter is designed for gas, vapor and liquid measurement in a variety of industrial applications. Its modular compact design offers a unique combination of high measurement performance, flexible configuration and a robust stainless steel design. The PCM-1 is user programmable and configurable from PC through the novel S4-Connect™ interface.
Sensor technology
The PCM-1 is based on a ceramic aluminum oxide sensor diaphragm that converts the applied pressure to an electric signal. The sensor element is a dry cell diaphragm design with no filling oil contained. It is available either as an absolute sensor that measures relative to an integrated sealed reference vacuum or as a gauge sensor that measures relative to the ambient pressure.
The ceramic sensor surface in combination with the 316 stainless steel flange offers excellent chemical resistance and compatibility with a wide range of aggressive gases, solvents and acids.
APPLICATIONS
- Sterilization processes SIP and CIP
- Water treatment and supply
- Wind turbines
- HVAC installations
- Chemical processing
- Semiconductor processing
- Gas supply
