Submersible pressure sensors

For every hydrostatic level measurement, the right submersible pressure sensor

The submersible pressure transmitter, sometimes also referred to as a level probe, is a specific design of pressure sensor for hydrostatic level measurement in tanks, wells, shafts and bore holes. For this, the submersible pressure transmitter is submerged directly in the liquid to be measured, and positioned as close as possible to the bottom. There, the submersible pressure sensor measures the hydrostatic pressure, which enables a direct conclusion regarding the current level, i.e. the height of the liquid column above it.
FAQ
FAQ

What solutions are there against pressure spikes?

For this, we recommend a process connection with a reduced pressure port of 0.6 mm or 0.3 mm.

Will the pressure transmitter still work properly when the supply voltage is slightly below the minimum specified level?

Up to a certain pressure, the pressure transmitter will still provide a correct output signal. If the pressure increases beyond this point, however, the output signal will remain at the same value, since the power supply is not sufficient to drive ...
