AST4600
Explosion Proof Pressure Transmitter - Class I Div 1
The AST4600 Explosion-Proof Pressure Transducer / Transmitter is approved to CSA 30 (UL1203 / FM3615) Class 1 Div 1 and Zone 1 Group IIC Explosionproof - Groups A, B, C, D for use in Hazardous Areas.
Constructed with a simple, yet rugged design, the factory-sealed AST4600 stands up to a variety of Explosion proof applications where price and performance are critical. The AST4600 is CSA Single Seal Approved, meeting the ANSI-ISA 12.27.01 standards for pressure devices.
Available with voltage output signals, the AST4600 can be used for applications requiring low power consumption via a voltage output signal or packaged with a 4-20mA output signal for common integration into PLC's and controllers.
This pressure transducer features AST's Krystal Bond™ Technology, a one-piece stainless steel sensing element that provides high proof and burst pressure capability, long-term stability, and repeatable readings. The sensor is most commonly packaged with 316L Stainless steel to offer excellent media compatibility and comply to NACE MR0175 standards.
