Differential pressure transducers, while similar to standard pressure transmitters, focus on measuring the difference in pressure between two points in a fluid or gas system. They don't provide absolute pressure readings but rather the variation between two pressures. Here's a breakdown of their typical specifications: General Specifications · Differential Pressure Range: This specifies the range of pressure difference the transducer can measure (e.g., ±100 Pa, -10 to +10 bar). · Accuracy: Expressed as a percentage of full scale (%FS) similar to standard transmitters. Typical accuracy for good quality models is ±0.5%FS to ±2%FS. · Output Signal: The most common output signal is a 4-20mA current loop, but 0-5V or 0-10V voltage outputs can also be found. · Supply Voltage: The voltage required to power the transducer (typically 24VDC). · Performance Specifications · Temperature Limits: The operating temperature range the transducer can withstand. · Static Pressure Rating: The maximum pressure each individual input port can handle without damage (important because differential transducers have two pressure inputs). This can be higher than the differential pressure range. · Proof Pressure: The maximum overall pressure the transducer can withstand without permanent damage (typically 1.5 to 2 times the upper limit of the differential pressure range). · Burst Pressure: The pressure that will cause catastrophic failure (typically 4 times the upper limit of the differential pressure range). · Response Time: The time it takes for the output to respond to a change in pressure difference (usually in milliseconds). Environmental Specifications · Ingress Protection (IP rating): Similar to other transmitters, this rating indicates the level of protection against dust and water ingress (e.g., IP65 for dust tight and water jets). · Material of Construction: The materials used in wetted parts (those coming into contact with the process fluid) are crucial. Common materials include stainless steel, Hastelloy C, and Monel. Additional Features · Media Compatibility: The type of fluids or gases the transducer is compatible with, considering factors like corrosiveness. · Communication Protocol (Optional): Some advanced models offer communication protocols like HART for remote configuration and diagnostics. · Display (Optional): Some transducers may have a built-in display for local pressure difference reading. · Calibration: Calibration is necessary to ensure accuracy. Some models offer features like zero and span adjustments for easier calibration. Factors to Consider When Selecting a Differential Pressure Transducer · Process Connections: The type of fitting used for connecting the transducer to the two pressure points (e.g., NPT, flange). · Electrical Connections: The type of electrical connector for power and output signal. · Fluid Compatibility: Ensure the materials and media compatibility specifications match the fluids in your application. By understanding these differential pressure transducer specifications and additional factors, you can select a suitable model for your specific application that requires measuring pressure differences in liquids or gases.
