Description

The KERAMESS pressure transmitters are suitable for taking pressure and filling level measurements in pipelines and containers. The wide range of process connections enables use in all applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Customer-specific process connections are also possible on request.

The vacuum-proof and extremely overload safe measuring cell with a ceramic membrane made of highly pure aluminium oxide works on the basis of the capacitive measuring principle. The KERAMESS pressure transmitters are designed to measure from -1/0…1 to -1/0…70bar. The measuring ranges 0...0.05bar and -0.1...+0.1bar are available alongside other special measuring ranges. Thanks to the ceramic membrane, the KERAMESS pressure transmitters are particularly suited for aggressive and abrasive media. The design for long-term medium temperatures of up to 125°C enables CIP and SIP cleaning methods to be used on the transmitters. The high protection classes of IP67 and IP69K guarantee that the devices can be safely cleaned on the outside with foam and a high-pressure cleaner and that moisture is reliably prevented from entering into the device. For additional protection against moisture, the electronics are fully encapsulated in the housing.

All the pressure transmitters in series 200/201are highly precise and have been developed for difficult tank content measurements and, in particular, for applications with constantly high temperatures of up to 200°C. Furthermore, using the on-site display with series 200 and the display and operating module OPUSi in series 201, the pressure transmitters can be simply read out, configured and diagnosed. With the EASY TRANSFER function, the configuration data can be copied via the OPUSi module onto other pressure transmitters in series 201. This makes commissioning easier for the same applications. The option of programming in tank dimensions for standard tank designs as well as for special tanks using the volumes calculated by means of volumetric measurement means exact filling levels and tank content can be shown directly.
