Critical Technical Advantages
-
Optimized for Standard Applications: The PMD50 is engineered to provide exactly what is needed for everyday industrial processes, offering a balance of high-tier performance and simplified operation without unnecessary complexity.
-
Intuitive Software Wizards: Commissioning is streamlined through step-by-step software guides. These wizards minimize the risk of configuration errors and ensure the device is up and running quickly, regardless of the user’s familiarity with the instrument.
-
Safety by Design: Developed in accordance with IEC 61508, the PMD50 is suitable for use in functional safety applications. It includes a specific “Safety Mode” wizard that allows users to securely lock the device parameters directly from the control room.
-
High Precision Performance: The device offers a reference accuracy of up to ±0.055% (Platinum version), making it reliable for critical level, volume, and flow calculations.
-
Broad Material Compatibility: To handle various media, the process membranes are available in 316L stainless steel, Alloy C, or with gold plating, providing resistance against corrosive environments.
-
Pre-assembled Manifolds: For faster and safer onsite installation, the PMD50 can be ordered with pre-mounted manifolds. These units undergo rigorous pressure and leakage testing at the factory, ensuring immediate operational certainty upon arrival.
