Economy Transmitters

What is a Pressure Transmitter?

A pressure transmitter is a device used to measure the pressure of gases or liquids and convert that pressure into an electrical signal that can be read and interpreted by control systems or monitoring equipment. These devices are commonly used in industrial applications such as process control, automation, and fluid monitoring.

Activites include:

• Sensing Pressure: It detects pressure using a sensor element (like a piezoresistive or capacitive sensor).
• Signal Conversion: Converts the mechanical pressure into a standardized electrical output (e.g., 4–20 mA, 0–10 V).
• Output Transmission: Sends the signal to a control system (like a PLC or DCS) for monitoring or control.

WIKA A-10 Series is an example of an economy transmitter. 

• Type: General-purpose industrial pressure transmitter
• Pressure Ranges: Available in various ranges (e.g., 0–100 psi, 0–1000 psi)
• Output Signal: Typically 4–20 mA
• Accuracy: ±0.25% of span
• Applications: Hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, refrigeration, and more
