Answer: The 2088 Pressure Transmitter is a compact, inline transmitter designed primarily for gauge and absolute pressure measurement in direct-mount applications. It features a single process connection (e.g., 1/2" NPT or M20x1.5). In contrast, the 3051 series is a dual-port coplanar or flange-mounted transmitter engineered for high-precision differential pressure, level, and flow applications, offering tighter accuracy classes (up to ±0.04% FS) and higher static pressure limits.
Answer: Piezoresistive silicon sensors offer high sensitivity, broad pressure capabilities (up to 700 bar), and fast response times. They are typically isolated from the media via a 316L SS diaphragm and silicone oil fill. Ceramic sensors (AKS series), on the other hand, utilize a capacitive or resistive dry cell made of 96% Alumina (Al2O3), providing exceptional abrasive and chemical resistance without requiring oil filling, making them ideal for aggressive slurries and hygienic applications.
Answer: For standard water, air, and hydraulic oil, standard 316L SS is optimal. For seawater, wet chlorine, or organic acids, Hastelloy C-276 is recommended. For highly aggressive media such as concentrated sulfuric or hydrochloric acid, Tantalum diaphragms or ceramic cells should be specified. Consult our engineering team for chemical compatibility matrices prior to order placement.
Answer: Yes. Modern 2088 transmitters support zero and span adjustments via external push-buttons located under the housing nameplate, digital HART handheld communicators (e.g., Emerson 475/AMS Trex), or Modbus RS485 digital commands. This allows quick field recalibration without removing the device from the pipeline.
Answer: Absolutely. Our 2088 pressure transmitters offer explosion-proof (Exd IIC T6 Gb) and intrinsically safe (Exia IIC T4 Ga) options certified under CE, ATEX, and ISO standards. Always verify that the hazardous zone classification and ambient temperature ratings match your plant's safety audit requirements.
Answer: When installing a 1/2" NPT male process connection, apply PTFE tape or an approved pipe sealant to the male threads. Hand-tighten the unit into the female port, then use a wrench on the hexagonal flat of the transmitter body to turn it an additional 2 to 3 full turns. Do not apply force directly to the transmitter housing body to avoid damaging internal electronics.
Answer: Standard catalog models can ship within 5 to 7 working days. Customized OEM configurations (custom logo dials, special threads, non-standard ranges) typically have a lead time of 2 to 3 weeks depending on batch size. MOQ is flexible, starting from single evaluation units for engineering qualification.
Answer: Temperature compensation uses an internal temperature sensor located right next to the sensing chip. The digital ASIC reads temperature fluctuations in real-time and applies mathematically calculated correction polynomial coefficients, counteracting thermal span and zero shifts across -40°C to +85°C.
