Honeywell is pleased to announce an extension to its efficient, affordable and durable PX3 Series Heavy Duty Pressure Transducers designed primarily for system pressure monitoring in HVAC, refrigeration, air compressor, pump and valve systems. These new configurations offer the flexibility to serve global customers with a new brazable copper tube port, a cable harness termination and an operating pressure range extension to 50 bar / 700 psi (was previously to 46 bar / 667 psi). In addition, the PX3 Series’ ratiometric output option has been extended to offer 3.3 V, in addition to 5 V, with the option to enable the diagnostics function.
OVERVIEW OF THE PX3 SERIES
- Provides high efficiency: Proven, ±1.0 %FSS tight Total Error Band accuracy promotes system efficiency and lower energy costs
- Great customer value: Economical choice for design/implementation; extremely flexible with multiple configuration possibilities with the right combination of features and broad media compatibility
- Durability promotes system uptime: For enhanced performance in tough environments to support overall system quality, reliability and warranty
- Fast availability: Short lead times on samples and production parts
DIFFERENTIATION
