2.1 PTB210 product overview
PTB210 is designed for various pressure ranges. It is available in 2 pressure ranges in 3
configurations:
• Serial output for 500 … 1100 hPa
• Serial output for 50 … 1100 hPa
• Analog output with different scalings between 500 … 1100 hPa
PTB210 is ideal for outdoor installations and harsh environments. PTB210 is designed to
operate in a wide temperature range, and the electronics housing provides IP65 (NEMA 4)
standardized protection against sprayed water.
The rugged corrosion-resistant housing in combination with the small size facilitates easy
installation and a long lifetime for the barometer.
PTB210 is ideal for use in applications such as weather stations, data buoys, ships, airports, and
agrology. It is also an excellent solution for monitoring barometric pressure in industrial
equipment such as laser interferometers and engine test benches.
In addition, PTB210 integrates directly with Vaisala Static Pressure Head Series SPH10/20. This
pairing offers accurate measurement in all wind conditions.
PTB210 is digitally adjusted and calibrated by using electronic working standards. A higher
accuracy barometer, which is fine-tuned and calibrated against a high-precision pressure
calibrator, is available for the 500 … 1100 hPa pressure range.
