High Accuracy, Sanitary Pressure Transducers
The PXM409S Sanitary Metric range Series micromachined silicon transducers with 1½ or 2" sanitary fittings are ideal for pressure or level Clean In Place (CIP) applications in food processing, beverage, dairy, or bio/ pharmaceutical applications. They are also rugged enough for most industrial applications requiring a high accuracy CIP transducer. The micromachined silicon sensor provides a very stable reading with exceptional high accuracy of 0.08% and a broad compensated temperature range of -4 to 85°C on most ranges. The modular construction allows for fast delivery of most configurations and fittings. Plus, customized models also can be delivered quickly to suit your exact needs.

Pressure Transducers and Transmitters
A pressure transducer, often called a pressure transmitter, is a sensor that converts pressure into an analog electrical signal. Although there are various types of transducers, one of the most common is the strain-gage wheatstone bridge pressure transducer.
The conversion of pressure into an electrical signal is achieved by the physical deformation of strain gages which are bonded into the diaphragm of the pressure transducer and wired into a wheatstone bridge configuration. Pressure applied to the transducer produces a deflection of the diaphragm which introduces strain to the gages. The strain will produce an electrical resistance change proportional to the pressure...

Understanding Sensor Output Signals
Have you ever wondered why there are a multitude of sensor output signals that can be configured on pressure, temperature, humidity, or gas sensing instrumentation used in process or HVAC applications? Most of these offerings were originally set up to allow sensor manufacturers to better align with the inputs offered by manufacturers of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and direct digital controllers (DDCs), which are used for controlling processes for both automation and HVAC control.
I’d like to focus on two of the most commonly used output signals and zero in on the advantages and disadvantages...
