(pressebox) (Güglingen, 21.06.2011) The new AFRISO compact pressure transducer DMU 600/20 converts the pressure of gases and liquids such as air, chemical gases, water, oils or petrol into a proportional electrical signal. DMU 600/20 uses an encapsulated, piezo-resistive silicon measuring cell which provides high accuracy even at low pressure and excels with a high resistance to chemicals. DMU 600/20 converts relative pressures in the measuring ranges from 0/4 bar to 0/40 bar with an accuracy of < ±1 % FSO; it is suitable for ambient and fluid temperatures of -25 °C to 85 °C. The housing and the G1/4B process connection are made of stainless steel 304. DMU 600/20 is supplied with DC 10-32 V and delivers a 4-20 mA output signal. The electrical connection with connector and junction box as per ISO 4400 (DIN 43650-A) has a degree of protection IP 65. DMU 600/20 is optionally available with other measuring ranges, process connections, electrical connections and other output signals. The DMU 600/20 pressure transducer is mass-produced in automated production facilities so that its extremely competitive price makes it highly attractive to OEMs.
