ATEX pressure sensors

16 December 2014

The range of high performance pressure sensors from Kistler Instruments is now available certified for use in ATEX Zone 0, intrinsically safe and Zone 2, non-incendive hazardous areas.

The sensors use a new, patented double lip sealing method which eliminates the need for an O-ring seal ensuring accuracy and reliability where extremely high temperature, vibration and shock are likely.  Contained in a high integrity housing, the piezoresistive sensing element is isolated from the pressure media by a welded 316L stainless steel or HastelloyT diaphragm. Integrated surface mount electronics provide signal conditioning and temperature compensation. 

The three ranges consist of absolute (Type 4260A), gauge (Type 4262A) and differential (4264A) pressure sensors all with an accuracy of up to 0.05% FS and long-term stability of 0.1% FS per year.
