At any point where the process pressure has to be indicated locally, and, at the same time, a signal is wanted to be transmitted to a central controller or remote control room, the model PGT43HP intelliGAUGE (US Patent No. 8,030,990) can be used. Due to the metallic construction of the pressure elements, these instruments have a high overpressure safety in the ranges of 40, 100 and 400 bar.
Through the combination of a high-quality mechanical measuring system and precise electronic signal processing, the process pressure can be read securely, even if the power supply is lost. The intelliGAUGE model PGT43HP fulfils all safety-related requirements of the relevant standards and regulations for the on-site display of the operating pressure of pressure vessels. An additional measuring point for mechanical pressure indication can thus be saved. The model PGT43HP is based upon a model 432.36 highquality, stainless steel safety pressure gauge with a nominal size of 100 or 160. The pressure gauge is manufactured in accordance with EN 837-3.
