Specifications




   Vacuum Range
 
     Measures vacuum (below atmospheric pressure). Enter the range from lowest vacuum to highest vacuum (e.g., from 0 to 30 inches of Hg VAC).
 
   Search Logic:      User may specify either, both, or neither of the limits in a "From - To" range; when both are specified, matching products will cover entire range. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.
   Accuracy
 
     The difference (error) between the true value and the indication expressed as percent of the span. It includes the combined effects of method, observer, apparatus and environment.
ASME B40.1 and DIN accuracy grades are frequently used:
Grade 4A (0.1% Full Scale)
Grade 3A (0.25% Full Scale)
Grade 2A (0.5% Full Scale)
Grade 1A (1% Full Scale)
Grade A (1% middle half, 2% first and last quarters)
Grade B (2% middle half, 3% first and last quarters)
Grade C (3% middle half, 4% first and last quarters)
Grade D (5% Full Scale)
Measurement Accuracy (% of Full Scale). In cases where the accuracy differs between middle span and the first and last quarters of the scale, the largest % error is reported.

Additional Output and Features




   Signal Output      Signal output is the type of electrical signal produced.
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Analog Voltage
 
     The output voltage is a simple (usually linear) function of the measurement.
 
   Analog Current
 
     Analog current levels or transmitters such as 4 – 20 mA are suitable for sending signals over long distances. Current is imposed on the output circuit proportional to the measurement. Feedback is used to provide the appropriate current regardless of line noise and impedance.
 
   RS232 / RS485
 
     RS232 and RS485 are serial communication protocols that transmit data one bit at a time. RS232 provides a standard interface between data terminal and data communications equipment. RS485 can be transformed into a multi-point application.
 
   Parallel
 
     Parallel outputs such as printer ports and Centronics ports transmit data in groups of bits. The general-purpose interface bus (GPIB) or IEEE 488 is a popular parallel interface for connecting computers, peripherals, and laboratory instruments.
 
   HART® Protocol
 
     The highway addressable remote transducer (HART®) protocol uses 1200 baud frequency shift keying (FSK) based on the Bell 202 standard to superimpose digital signals on conventional 4-20 mA analog signals. This enables two-way communication and facilitates the transmission of information beyond normal process variables to and from smart field instruments. The HART protocol communicates without interrupting the analog signal and allows a host application (master) to receive two or more digital updates per second from a field device (slave). Because they are phase-continuous, the digital FSK signals do not interfere with the analog 4-20 mA signals. HART is a registered trademark of the HART Communication Foundation.
 
   PROFIBUS®
 
     The process fieldbus (PROFIBUS®) is a popular, open communication standard used in factory automation, process automation, motion control, and safety applications. PROFIBUS is standardized in IEC 71158 and IEC 61784 and is suitable for both fast, time-critical applications and complex communication tasks. PROFIBUS is a registered trademark of PROFIBUS International.
 
   DeviceNet
 
     DeviceNet uses controller area network (CAN) network protocol to connect industrial devices such as limit switches, photoelectric cells, valve manifolds, motor starters, drives, and operator displays to programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and personal computers (PCs).
 
   FOUNDATION Fieldbus
 
     The FOUNDATION fieldbus is a serial, all-digital, two-way communication system that serves as a local area network (LAN) for factory instrumentation and control devices. It uses a line or tree topology and distributed data transfer (DDT). In the hierarchy of digital networks, the FOUNDATION fieldbus is on the lower end.
 
   Ethernet
 
     Ethernet is a local area network (LAN) protocol that uses a bus or star typology and supports data transfer rates of 10 Mbps. The Ethernet specification is the basis for the IEEE 802.3 standard, which specifies the physical and lower software layers. To handle simultaneous demands, Ethernet uses carrier sense multiple access / collision detection (CSMA/CD) to monitor network traffic.
 
   Frequency
 
     The output signal is encoded via amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), or some other modulation scheme such as sine wave or pulse train; however, the signal is still analog in nature.
 
   Special Digital (TTL)
 
     Devices produce digital outputs other than standard serial or parallel signals. Examples include transistor-transistor logic (TTL) outputs.
 
   Switch / Alarm
 
     The output is a change in state of a switch or alarm.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary outputs.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
   Features       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Temperature Output
 
     Devices provide temperature measurement outputs.
 
   Temperature Compensation
 
     Devices include built-in factors that prevent pressure measurement errors due to temperature changes.
 
   Alarm Indicator
 
     Devices have a built-in audible or visual alarm, not just a switch or relay closure.
 
   TTL Compatible Switch
 
     The output switch is compatible with transistor-transistor logic (TTL).
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary features.
 
   Search Logic:      All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
