1 IPT-2x
2 IPT-2x, slave sensor
The sensors are connected via a screened four-wire cable. The
measured value from the slave sensor is read in and factored into the
calculations. Power supply and parameter adjustment are carried out
through the master sensor.
Information:
The sensor versions "
Relative pressure climate-compensated
" as
well as "
Double chamber housing
" are not suitable for connection of a
slave sensor.
You can find further information in chapter "
Combination Master -
Slave
" of this operating instructions.
The process pressure acts on the sensor element via the process dia-
phragm. The process pressure causes a resistance change which is
converted into a corresponding output signal and output as measured
value.
Piezoresistive sensor element
Measuring ranges up to 40 bar: piezoresistive sensor element with
internal transmission liquid is used.
