Pressure Transmitter

VPT10 is a pressure transmitter with high performance capacitive sensor, designed for differential, absolute and gauge pressure measurements, as well as models for level applications: flanged, remote seal and sanitary options.

The VPT10 is available with HART® 7 and Profibus-PA communication protocols, being a robust and highly reliable solution for pressure, level and flow measurements, ensuring efficient and reliable process results with high availability.

VPT10-R – REMOTE SENSOR

The remote sensor model offers several installation advantages, especially in industrial applications and hazardous areas. It consists of an indicator unit, with an LCD display and no sensor attached, and a transmitter unit, which houses the pressure sensor. Both units are connected by a communication cable.

Here are some of its main advantages:

• Flexible Installation: The remote sensor allows installation in hard-to-reach locations or in areas where the transmitter must be kept in a more accessible or safe position for the user. This facilitates installation and maintenance, increasing safety.
• Visualization and Accessibility: The presence of an LCD housing allows measurements to be viewed directly on the transmitter, which is useful for operators. They can read and verify data without having to reach the sensor, saving time and increasing efficiency.
• Local Configuration and Calibration: The ability to configure and calibrate locally directly on the transmitter, at the most suitable and safe location for the user, eliminates the need for specialists or additional equipment, making the process faster and more efficient.
• Local Configuration and Calibration: The ability to configure and calibrate locally on the transmitter, at the most suitable and safe location for the user, eliminates the need for specialists or additional equipment, making the process faster and more efficient.
• Classified Area Suitability: In classified areas where there is a risk of explosion or other hazardous conditions, having a transmitter with a remote sensor can be essential to ensure safety. The transmitter can be installed in a safe area, while the sensor measures pressure in a hazardous location.
• Sensor Communication Cable: The ability to use long cables offers installation versatility, allowing the sensor to be positioned where it is most effective, while the transmitter remains in an easily accessible location.
• Advanced Digital Technology: The use of protocols such as HART 7 or Profibus-PA allows for easy integration with automation and control systems, enabling real-time data communication and access to additional information, such as diagnostics and condition monitoring. It uses the same integration files in systems such as EDD, DTM, GSD, etc., making integration simple and easy, as if it were a standard VPT10 pressure transmitter.

These features make remote-sensing pressure transmitters a highly efficient and safe solution for a variety of applications, especially in challenging industrial environments.
