Pressure transducer P9000 Series

 

The P9000 Series is the latest addition to the Schaevitz® family of advanced digitally compensated pressure transducers.

The unique design of the P9000 pressure transducer utilizes the proven reliability of strain gauge technology and innovative digital compensation electronics. The synergy of these technologies result in an instrument grade pressure transducer .

P900

 

Available in pressure ranges from 75 psi to 10,000 psi (5 bar to 700 bar), the P9000 series can be configured with a variety of pressure ports, electrical outputs, and termination options to meet most pressure sensing needs.

The P9000 Series incorporates 12 bit digital compensation electronics to ensure precise calibration of all critical parameters. This unique circuit design also provides a significant advantage of maintaining a true analog “thrupath” resulting in an exceptionally fast response of 1000 Hz without a sacrifice in accuracy.

Error contribution sources are digitally corrected to guarantee repeatable performance and eliminate the need for user calibration. Combined nonlinearity hysteresis and non-repeatability errors are guaranteed to be less than ±0.08% F.R.O. with total thermal error limited to 0.004% F.R.O/°C over an extended industrial temperature range of -4°F to 185°F (-20°C to 85°C).

The P9000 series delivers the advantages of a 17-4 PH diaphragm offering a true stainless steel isolation barrier with high burst pressures, at 20x the rated pressure, and a proof pressure, up to 5x the rated pressure.

Housed in a rugged 316 stainless steel, NEMA 4X, IP67 enclosure with guaranteed shock resistance of up to 1000g for 2msec, and vibration to ±20g, the P9000 provides a robust solution for a wide variety of demanding pressure applications and environments.

Available in both cable and connector outlets, the P9000 is offered in various electronic outputs: four wire 0-10 V, four wire 0 to 5 V and a 2 wire 4-20 mA intrinsically safe certified version. The P9000 can be configured to give 3 wire 1 to 6V or 1 to 11V output.

All P9000 units are constructed under an ISO 9001 environment. Each unit is serialized and shipped with a calibration certificate guaranteeing the highest quality and reliability found in an instrument grade pressure transducer.
