KPSI™ Level & Pressure Transducers: Application NotesShip Draft |
| ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– |
Challenge: Seawater-compatible level transmitters for thru-hull mounting in ocean-going vessels. Detail: Transmitters must have materials that will withstand long-term exposure to seawater combined with high accuracy and ability to withstand severe pressure spikes as a result of the pitching of the vessel in rough seas. Units must retrofit into existing receptacles to minimize downtime. Solution: A special version of the Series 730 provides better than 0.1% static accuracy with titanium outer housing and diaphragm. A high range sensor is deranged to provide the overpressure capability. Field trials prove the design to be successful.
