High-accuracy digital pressure gauges for heavy industrial applications

TT Electronics has released a new series of high-accuracy digital pressure gauges. Drawing on its expertise in pressure sensors, the DPG series is the company’s first line of pressure gauges employing digital technology. The series is optimised for heavy industrial applications, incorporating industrial machinery, heat treatment, and water management, providing accuracy within +/- 0.5% of compensated range.

“The high-accuracy DPG Series offers customers a turn-key digital out pressure device that can also be fully customised through its USB interface and dedicated software,” said Andy Roberts, sales director, TT Electronics. “It’s an intelligent sensing solution with user-customisable options and powerful data logging features as a standard.”

The series features a loop- (DPG-L) or battery-powered (DPG-B) digital pressure gauge developed for use with gas or liquid up to 100 Bar. Gauge or absolute pressure formats are offered, with pressure displayed in Bar, PSI, or the user’s own units on a six-digit LCD. User-customisable display modes enable advanced message outputs on one or two lines that can be triggered by events that the unit senses. As well as messages, the user may select an alert-event to occur when pressure falls within a defined band. Together with messaging and alerts, a change-over relay can be utilised to give switching at user-set points, controlling alarms and other process actions.

The series pressure gauges also provide onboard data logging through an integrated USB interface, recording process details of up to 5000 data points time-stamped utilising the device’s real-time clock. A five-point calibration can be applied employing the series’ USBSpeedLink software, allowing straight-line profiles and a wide range of custom curves and corrections.
