The NH Series (for non-hazardous) replaces more expensive enclosures for use in hazardous areas with a NEMA 4 type enclosure. This gives significant cost savings, while still being waterproof. Typical applications are in the food and drink industry.
Accuracy is within 1 per cent of full scale, with repeatability within 0.25 per cent. Other specifications include a turndown ratio of 100:1, a 4-20mA or 0-5Vdc output and NIST-traceable calibration for inert gases.
There are in-line models from ΒΌ to 4in diameter.
