المزايا التقنية الحاسمة
-
Flexible Application Range: The PMD55 is a “3-in-1” solution. It can be configured for level measurement (volume or mass), differential pressure monitoring (across filters or pumps), and flow measurement (when used with an orifice plate or Pitot tube).
-
Electric HP/LP Switch: A standout feature is the internal electric switch on the electronics. This allows you to swap the high-pressure (HP) and low-pressure (LP) sides without physically re-plumbing the impulse lines, significantly simplifying onsite installation errors.
-
SIL2 Safety by Design: Certified to IEC 61508 and IEC 61511, the PMD55 is ready for use in safety-instrumented systems (SIS), providing reliable monitoring for critical process pressures.
-
Modular and User-Friendly: The device features a modular concept where the display or electronics can be replaced easily in the field. The menu-guided Quick Setup allows for fast commissioning, reducing the technical expertise required for initial configuration.
-
High Precision Options: While the standard accuracy is ±0.1%, a “Platinum” version is available that provides an accuracy of ±0.075%, ensuring precise data for critical mass flow or inventory calculations.
-
Broad Integration: It supports all major industrial communication protocols, including 4-20mA HART, PROFIBUS PA, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus, allowing it to fit into almost any existing control architecture.
