PT4400 Pressure Sensors for Intrinsically Safe Locations



Minneapolis, Minn.-March 13, 2009- TURCK introduces its new PT4400 pressure sensor series designed for intrinsically safe locations. This series utilizes a media isolated stainless steel diaphragm for use in pneumatics, water management, hydrogen storage, hydraulic systems, oil and gas, HVAC/R and industrial OEM equipment.

The PT4400 is rated for UL/cUL 913 (CSA 157) Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D when installed with an approved barrier, such as a TURCK IM33 module. Constructed without welds or o-rings, these sensors allow exceptional pressure ranges up to 10,000 psi and burst pressure ranges up to 20,000 psi.

PT4400 sensors are manufactured using MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) technology. With its one-piece sensing design, the PT4400 offers many advantages over other pressure sensing technologies, including a high life cycle, plus high overload and burst pressure cycles.

TURCK is an industry leader providing superior quality sensing, connectivity and network products to help manufacturers improve their automated processes. For other TURCK product or technical information, contact: 1-800-544-7769 www.turck.us turckusa@turck.com
