The member of the KROHNE OPTIBAR family is unparalleled when it comes to versatility and robustness. The completely newly developed piezoresistive differential pressure measuring device provides not only the exact differential pressure under any operating conditions but also
simultaneously measures the static pressure in the process line.
The extremely compact measuring cell has a robust and precise response to temperature changes and with step response times of just 125 ms, it provides enough measurements for reliable and stable process control.
Total 3D linearisation
For a robust and accurate differential pressure measurement, even under changing process conditions, each OPTIBAR DP differential pressure transmitter is linearised in 3 dimensions during calibration: differential pressure, ambient temperature and static pressure are taken into account in combination. Since the full specified operating range is covered, an outmost stable and accurate measurement under all process conditions is guaranteed.
