Multi-purpose pressure transmitters

Model 248 Pressure Transducer

Model 248 Pressure Transducer

The “48” Series is made to withstand overloads and severe pressure spikes that can offset, weaken or destroy other sensors. The minimum 3X overpressure rating on the X48 means better than 0.15% accuracy while still offering a response time of less than a millisecond. It’s designed to provide years of reliable, repeatable service.

Typical Applications:

• Engine test stands

• Production test stands

• Hydraulic

• Compressors & Pumps

• Rolling mills

• Die Casting

MODEL 248 PRESSURE TRANSDUCER

0-5 Vdc, 0- 3 to 15K psi, High Overpressure Protection


All welded stainless steel construction combined with sensors that are hermetically sealed with no adjustment controls provide an airtight and watertight transducer preventing contamination from the application environment. The “48” Series is made to withstand overloads and severe pressure spikes that can offset, weaken or destroy other sensors. The minimum 3X overpressure rating on the X48 means better than 0.15% accuracy while still offering a response time of less than a millisecond. It’s designed to provide years of reliable, repeatable service.
