Absolute and gauge pressure Cerabar PMC51 Digital pressure transmitter with oil-free ceramic sensor for measurement in gases or liquids


The Cerabar PMC51 digital pressure transmitter with capacitive, oil-free ceramic measuring cell is typically used in process and hygienic applications for pressure, level, volume or mass measurement in liquids and gases. It guarantees high degree of system safety thanks to vacuum-proof ceramic membrane with integrated breakage detection. Quick Setup with adjustable measuring range allows simple commissioning, reduces costs and saves time. SIL2 according to IEC 61508 / IEC 61511.

Benefits

  • Best fit for vacuum applications and applications with corrosive and abrasive media

  • Process safety through membrane breakage detection

  • Overload-resistant high purity ceramic sensor (99.9% Al2O3)

  • Condensation resistant also for hygienic applications

  • Easy menu-guided commissioning via local display, 4 to 20mA with HART, PROFIBUS PA, FOUNDATION Fieldbus

  • Process pressure up to SIL2, certified to IEC 61508 and IEC 61511

  • Modular concept for easy replacement of display or electronic

Field of application

Single chamber aluminum or stainless steel (316L) housing.

  • Process connections: Threads, flanges or hygienic connections

  • Process temperature: -40 to +130°C (-40 to +266°F), 150°C (302°F) for 1h

  • Measuring ranges: -1/0 up to +40bar (-15/0 to +600psi)

  • Accuracy: ±0.15%, "Platinum" ±0.075%

  • International explosion protection certificates, overfill prevention WHG, SIL, hygienic approvals, marine approvals
