MAS2600: Ordering Information Reference Manual January 2017 Ed 22 Type MAS 2600 -XXX-XX-X/XX Type Absolute Trans- The absolute transducer has no breather pipe, because it refers to ducer absolute vacuum. An atmospheric pressure sensor is used to compen- sate for the atmospheric pressure. The absolute transducer is espe- cially suitable for open deck applications, where the amplifier box may be exposed to flooding.
MAS 2600 -XXX-XX-X/XX Gauge Transmitter The MAS 2600 Gauge Transmitter is supplied in 4 ranges. In the programmable amplifier the measur- ing range is divided into 8 sub-ranges and operated by means of the range select switch. The transmitter output signal can be adjusted to 20 mA within the sub-ranges as of the table below.

Reference Manual January 2017 Ed 22 Temperature Sensor MAS 2600 -XXX-XX-X/XX The transducer can be supplied with a built-in Pt100 temperature sensor. The temperature sensor will only give a proper reading, if the transducer is an internally mounted type. Temperature Sensor Without temperature sensor.
80C, and high temperature cable for applications with temperatures up to 125C. The trans- ducer cable is delivered in whole meters. To make the MAS 2600 transmitter easy to install, and for later service purposes, the transducer cable should be as short as possible, though considering the position of the transducer and amplifier box.
