Pressure Transmitter PR-9500

The PR9500 pressure transmitter, used in conjunction with the RX9500 receiver, provides a wireless solution for safe operation in tough industrial and process applications eliminating the need for hard wiring. The PR9500 transmitter can be situated in inaccessible areas, allowing the operator to monitor at safe distances on site. No hard wiring means lower installation cost and maintenance.

The unique Silicon-on-Sapphire sensor technology provides outstanding performance and gives excellent stability over a wide temperature range. The advanced sensor design consists of a piezoresistive silicon strain gauge circuit, which is epitaxially grown onto the surface of a sapphire diaphragm to form a single crystalline structure. The sapphire sensor element is then molecularly bonded to a titanium alloy sub-diaphragm. This enables the sensor to endure higher over- pressures and provides superb corrosion resistance. The completed sensor exhibits virtually no hysteresis and excellent long-term stability. With outstanding insulation properties, the sapphire substrate allows the sensor to operate over a very wide temperature range without loss of performance.
