Results

  • The ceramic pressure sensor ensures reliable performance in liquid chlorine. Reliable, robust and low-maintenance

Challenge

Thin metal diaphragms can be rapidly corroded by caustic chemicals, which eventually leads to mechanical failure. Metal pressure sensors are susceptible to drifting over time, which renders them unreliable

Realization

The Cerabar PMC51B digital pressure transmitter with capacitive, oil-free ceramic measuring cell guarantees a high degree of system safety thanks to vacuum-proof ceramic membrane with integrated breakage detection. 

  • Pressure measuring range: up to 40 bar (600 psi)

  • Fully vacuum resistant up to +100°C (212°F) process temperature

  • Accuracy: up to +/-0.055%

Benefits

  • Corrosion-resistant

  • Abrasion-resistant

  • No hydrogen diffusion

  • No diaphragm damages

  • Dry cell/no media pollution

  • Cost saving on expensive alloys diaphragm materials
