Type KX Flush Mount Thin Film Pressure Transducer/Transmitter for Pulp and Paper Applications

 

APPLICATIONS:

    Pulp/paper, waste water, spray booths and all heavy medium pumping processes

BENEFITS & FEATURES:
  • Available with PMC adapter (shown)
  • Flush-mounted integral 316 Stainless Steel diaphragm
  • Stainless Steel NEMA 4X enclosure
  • Current/voltage output
    The Ashcroft® KX transmitter combines the proven benefits of polysilicon thin film performance with the utility of a flush-mounting sensing diaphragm.  Modern low-pressure chemical vapor deposition methods provide simple, stable molecular bonds between a proven metal diaphragm and polysilicon strain gage bridge. There are no epoxies or bonding agents to contribute to signal instability or drift. 
    The flush sensing element is provided by an integral, silicone filled Stainless Steel diaphragm seal.  The small sensing area and low internal volume ensure accurate measurement under severe conditions.
    The polysilicon strain resistors combine very low noise levels with very high signal output.  There are no semiconductor (p-n) junctions to change with temperature, time or use.  The integral metal diaphragm and polysilicon bridge are virtually unaffected by shock, vibration, or mounting position.
    These transmitters are offered in many standard pressure ranges with either current or voltage output signals.  Transmitter performance is directly traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology and specifications are conservatively stated.
