Submersible pressure sensor

BinMaster's new PT-500 submersible pressure transducer is an affordable and versatile level sensor that calculates level based upon the amount of pressure being exerted on the sensor from the liquid above it. It can be used in a wide range of liquids including water, wastewater and a variety of chemicals. It is Class 1, Division 1 certified and intrinsically safe for use in hazardous environments. As it has a low current draw, the PT-500 can be used in remote locations and for battery powered applications.
 
Made of 316L stainless steel, the PT-500 submersible pressure transducer is compatible with many liquids and chemicals. Lightning protection is built into the sensor, eliminating the need for a separate surge protector. 
 
The PT-500 installs simply by dropping it into the vessel or with an optional protective cage. The PT-500 allows setting the zero adjust in the field, eliminating the need to perform the adjustment with a potentiometer screw. Using a simple magnet supplied with the unit, the zero point can be adjusted by sliding the magnet up or down the side of the sensor. Since there are not any potentiometer screws, there is no chance of leaking which could damage the sensor.
