PS98i Installation Options

DESCRIPTION
The patented PS98i submersible pressure transmitter represents the latest in state-of-the-art level measurement technology. Building on years of successful experience, this industry standard two-wire, 4-20 mA device offers improved noise immunity, thermal performance and transient protection. In addition to reverse polarity protection, under-current and over-current limitation is featured on the transmitter channel. The updated cable harness design reduces the probability of leakage and protects the cable jacket from damage by providing double-sealing; 316 stainless steel, Viton® and Teflon® construction increases corrosion resistance. The transmitter’s standard end cone is a 1/4” NPT inlet which allows for increased application use, easy hookup and field calibration. The modular-designed PS98i may be easily factory serviced and repaired.
OPERATION
The PS98i pressure transmitter is powered by a datalogger or control system. The internal electronic circuit controls the amount of current flowing through the loop based on the signal from the internal pressure sensor. An above-surface probe will draw 4 mA and once submerged, the current flow increases linearly with pressure (or depth). At full-scale pressure (depth), the transmitter will draw 20 mA. A data acquisition/or control system then measures this current and computes the pressure or level.
APPLICATIONS
Due to its rugged construction and proven reliability, the PS98i is used successfully to monitor groundwater, well, tank and tidal levels, as well asfor pump testing and flow monitoring.
