Electrical connection

All transmitters require two connections, a mechanical pressure connection and an electrical connection. Just as you would check the compatibility of the pressure connection, you should always check the electrical configuration of the transmitter before purchase. The electrical termination on a pressure transmitter usually has a multi-pin connector or a cable, so your process must have the same wiring code for electrical pin-to-pin compatibility.

The electrical connector is usually the most vulnerable component of a pressure transmitter and care should be taken not to dent the connector shell or damage the pins. Damage like this can put the transmitter out of service completely.

Some different types of electrical connections are:

●       DIN EN 175301-803-A

●       DIN EN 175301-803-C

●       Cable outlet

●       Bayonet

●       M12x1

●       Mini USB type B socket
