About the AGS4200 Standard Pressure Transducer
The general purpose AGS4200 pressure transmitter is designed to meet the operational requirements of demanding pressure measurement applications where good quality, fast delivery and low cost are of the highest priority. 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 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.
Standard accuracy is ±0.25% with an over pressure limit of twice the rated pressure range, this together with easy access for re-calibration affirm the excellent design. All models are supplied with integral 1/4” BSP or alternative pressure connections. Optional higher accuracy, outputs and electrical connections are available. The all titanium alloy wetted parts offer unbeatable corrosion resistance. Versions are also available offering IP66 sealing for installations requiring high levels of environmental protection.
Applications for the AGS4200 include the continuous monitoring of hydraulic systems with oil, gas, water and other process liquids, industrial, medical and aerospace industries. Also ideal for the measurement and control of pressure in refrigeration, pneumatic, compressor, HVAC and engine monitoring systems.
An optional ATEX and IECEx approved version of this product is available for explosion protection for flammable gases (zone 0), dusts (zone 20) and mining areas (group I M1). DNV GL rules for classification of ships, high speed & light craft and DNV GL offshore standards.
