PGX100 and PAX100
Gauge and absolute pressure transmitters
Introduction
—
PGX100/PAX100 model
The present manual provides information on
installing, operating, troubleshooting the PGX100
and PAX100 pressure transmitter models. Every
section of the present manual is specifically
dedicated to the specific phase of the transmitter
lifecycle starting from the receipt of the transmitter
and its identification, passing to the installation, to
the electrical connections, to the configuration and
to the troubleshooting and maintenance operations,
as applicable.
The pressure transmitters model PGX100 and
PAX100 are field mounted, microprocessor based
electronic transmitters. Accurate and reliable
measurement of gauge and absolute pressure is
provided, in the even most difficult and hazardous
industrial environments. These models can be
configured to provide specific industrial output
signals according to 4 to 20mA with HART digital
communication.
Engineered solutions for all
applications
Measurement made easy
