Piezoelectric Pressure Sensors are intrinsically safe.

Press Release Summary:




ICP® pressure sensors are certified under ATEX and CSA as intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments. They incorporate signal conditioning circuitry for long distance signal transmission. Sensors measure dynamic pressure events such as surges, pulsations, and spikes. Mounting configurations include NPT, English and metric straight threads, with pressure ranges up to 20,000 psi. Sensors useful for monitoring compressors, pumps, and gas turbines.

Intrinsically Safe, Piezoelectric Pressure Sensors Satisfy Dynamic Pressure Measurement Requirements



November 1, 2003, Depew, NY - The Pressure Division of PCB Piezotronics, Inc., introduces a series of ICP® pressure sensors that have been certified under ATEX and CSA (Canada and US) as intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments.

These dynamic pressure sensors are available in various mounting configurations, such as NPT, English and metric straight threads, with pressure ranges up to 20,000 psi. ICP® sensors incorporate built-in signal conditioning circuitry for ease of use and long distance signal transmission capability. These sensors measure dynamic pressure events such as surges, pulsations, spikes, and are useful for monitoring the performance of compressors, pumps, and gas turbines, as well as detecting flow anomalies in piping systems.
