SDI-PT Submersible Pressure Transducer
Description
The digital (SDI-12) transducer consists of a piezoresistive sensor and a temperature sensor housed in a 316L stainless-steel case that can be submerged in most canals, wells, ponds, harbors, lakes, streams and tanks. An NTP fitting allows the SDI-PT to be used in closed-pipe applications.
It's fitted with a rugged Hytrel cable that remains flexible, even under harsh environmental conditions. The cable incorporates a vent tube to compensate for atmospheric pressure fluctuations. The vent tube terminates inside a desiccant box, which prevents water vapor from entering the inner cavity of the transducer.
- SDI-12 output suitable for use with any dataloggers that employ the SDI-12 standard, like the Axiom.
- Static accuracy of ±0.1% FS over a 0° to 60°C temperature range.
- Rugged stainless steel case that protects piezoresistive sensor.
- Fully temperature compensated.
- 24-bit A/D.
- Simultaneous 50/60 Hz rejection.
- Low power sleep state between measurements that reduces power consumption.
