Ashcroft A4 Intrinsically Safe and Non-Incendive Pressure Transmitter
Ashcroft A4 Intrinsically Safe and Non-Incendive Pressure Transmitter

The Ashcroft® A4 pressure transmitter is ideal for a broad spectrum of pressure sensing requirements where Intrinsically Safe or Non-Incendive hazardous location ratings are required.
The Ashcroft® A4 is designed and manufactured to provide the user with accurate, reliable, and stable output data.  This is accomplished through the use of an on board microprocessor, that is programmed during a unique digital compensation process, to provide extremely linear and precise performance over the entire specified pressure and  temperature range.

Features

  • Choice of .25, .50 or 1.0% accuracy
  • Intrinsically and non-incendive approvals, FM and CSA
  • Pressure ranges from 5 psi through 10,000 psi
  • CE mark is standard
  • 316L SS wetted materials
  • 304 SS case
  • Output 4-20 mA
  • Optional absolute pressure ranges available
  • Zero and span access

Applications
  • Oil field equipment
  • Upstream oil and gas production
  • Natural gas compression and transfer control
  • Alternative energy projects
