Pressure Transducers and Transmitters

Model ACT & DCT Media Isolated Pressure Transducers

Overview

The Model DCT Pressure Transducer is designed for general industrial and commercial requirements offering excellent performance over a wide range of applications. This model is based on proven micro-machined silicon technology providing high reliability, long-term stability, and low cost relative to competing technologies. The introduction of the DCT brings a new level of accuracy to the AMETEK product portfolio. This product is offered in a variety of mounting and electrical output options, stainless steel or brass construction, and a wide range of pressures. It is offered in a millivolt output (ACT) or fully digitally (DCT)compensated for the effects of pressure and temperature change and calibrated to produce industry standard electrical outputs. The DCT accepts both unregulated and regulated excitation voltages and provides output signals such as 1 to 5 VDC, 1 to 6 VDC, 0 to 5 VDC, 4 to 20mA, or 0 to 100mV. Both models are offered in pressure ranges from 1 psi up to and including 5000 psi and are extremely accurate, with less than ±0.3% full scale over pressure and less than ±1.0% full scale over a wide compensated temperature range (±0.5% full scale optional). The design incorporates a stainless steel isolation diaphragm and 316 stainless steel construction for use with most media types. Non-isolated brass optional. The DCT offers premium performance and versatility of use for many applications, both for the general industrial end user and original equipment manufacturers (OEM). It combines precision along with the durability to operate under difficult environmental conditions.
