3 Functional Description
The pressure is sensed in the transmitter by means of a piezo-resistive cell or a thin-film cell. The resulting
resistance signal, varying with the pressure, is converted by an amplifier to a current or voltage signal.
4 Installation Instructions
4.1 General Information
The actual operating pressure and temperature of the installation must not exceed the maximum values
specified. The pressure ports must only be opened with the system depressurized. Please note that in a given
system, the component with the lowest maximum pressure rating will determine the maximum permissible
operating pressure for the entire system.
4.2 Pressure Transmitter (high-pressure version)
For the proper tightening torques, please refer to the documentation from the supplier of your high-pressure
piping.
5 Electrical Connection
For the pin assignment, please refer to the label on the transmitter.
6 Care and Maintenance
PKP pressure transmitters are maintenance-free.
Recommended recalibration interval: 1 year
