XACT i Process Pressure Transmitter with ATEX & HART Communication!

The unique Process Pressure Transmitter XACT i, incorporates the latest in piezo-resistive silicon sensing technology combined with a digital microprocessor for compensation and calibration.  Together the result is a highly stable and accurate to <±0.05% pressure transmitter suitable for processing, pharmaceutical, food and dairy applications.

Pressure ranges are from 350mbar through to 35 Bar in Gauge or Absolute reference with 5:1 turn down of range as standard and still maintains the stated accuracy levels.  This is useful for customers to stock certain ranges and calibrate them for different applications when required so as to reduce the number of devices held on the shelf!

The Innovative housing on the top of the device which incorporates the LCD display is integrated to the pressure sensor module via an I2C interface.  The build procedure of the XACT i ensures that the device is not only accurate but has highly stability and repeatable performance.  By ordering the integrated temperature cooling element we can use the pressure transmitter in applications where the process temperature is as high as 300°C!!

The display on the device is a clear 3 stage LCD of 32.5 x 22.5mm which indicates the pressure, current, temperature and also has a text line at the bottom for easy programming.  The device can be programmed, on-site via the display and push buttons on the front of the device (accessed when the laminated safety glass is removed).  The parameters that can be adjusted are:
  • Offset
  • Calibration range
  • Damping
  • Engineering units
  • Display function
  • Password
As standard the display can be configured to show the current pressure, temperature of the media, current output and engineering units being displayed.  Other interesting and useful features include the ability to see the maximum and minimum process pressures and temperatures which is particularly useful when a plant event has occured and no data logging is used.  The device can then hold and display the maximum/minimum pressure and temperature during this time and be used to check the process operation.

We also have the option of having ATEX certified to zone 0: II 1 G EEx ia IIC T4.   The device can be manufactured to incorporate HART® Communication and for additional cost software and a HART® configurator can be supplied also.
