ABB’s compact pressure transmitters now available with 316L stainless steel housings
27 Nov 2007
ABB’s 364 pressure transmitter range is now available with a 316L stainless steel housing and bracket as standard. This makes the transmitters even more robust in the face of corrosive environments, such as those found offshore and in marine applications.
The upgraded transmitters retain all the features and functions of their predecessors, but are now an even more attractive option for users in industries such as offshore oil and gas.
Ideal for hazardous areas and demanding flow, level and pressure applications, ABB’s 364 pressure transmitter offers unrivalled simplicity in a compact installation just half the size of its competitors. The range includes the 364DS for differential pressure and 364PS for gauge pressure.
The 364 transmitter range has always delivered low-maintenance operation by offering long-term stability of 0.15% over 10 years. Operative accuracy is 0.06% across the operating range, which varies from 0.16mbar to 160bar. The upgrade of the explosion-proof housing to 316L stainless steel supports this long-term, low-maintenance performance. The transmitter also features Hastelloy diaphragms and NACE MR0175 wetted parts for broad corrosion resistance.
The boltless, gasket-free body combines with standard connections to dramatically reduce the chance of leaks up to 1,500 bar, as well as slashing the parts inventory by half when compared with its predecessors and many of its competitors. The 364 comes complete with standard drain and vent valves.
ABB’s one-day quick delivery service is available for certain variants within the range. For a fast-track fee, users can have their chosen instruments delivered within 24 hours, provided the order is placed before 3.00 PM. The 364 pressure transmitter range is also available via ABB’s nationwide network of Instrumentation Alliance Partners.
