P290 Pneumatic-to-Current P/I Transducer

Description

Explosion-proof housing allows it to stand up to the most hazardous and demanding applications.

ControlAir’s Dahl P290 P/I transducer represents outstanding value in pneumatic to current technology. All solid state circuitry converts standard 3-15, 3-27 or 6-30 psig instrument air into 4-20 or 10-50 mA outputs (4-20 mA only for FM and CSA approval) with uncompromising accuracy and durability. Custom pressure ranges are also available. P290 serves in high-density and panel-mounted applications and is available with high density DIN rail adapters, offering space saving flexibility with easy plug-in installation.
