Pressure sensors

Model 551 Pressure Transmitter

Model 551 Pressure Transmitter

551 is designed to provide rugged performance while measuring harsh corrosive materials. The sensor is a stainless steel machined diaphragm, with no oil fill. The zero cavity flush sensor provides an easy clean surface with no clogging. Magnetically coupled external adjustments prevent fluid ingress while providing a rangeable, field adjustable solution.
