Warranty

Workmanship - AST, Inc. pressure transmitters have a limited one-year warranty to the original purchaser. AST, Inc. will replace or repair, free of charge, any defective transmitter. All units returned for warranty evaluation must be thoroughly cleaned and free of process residue prior to shipment. Units that are not properly cleaned will be discarded and warranty service will be denied. This warranty does not apply to any units that have been modified; misused, neglected or installed where the application exceeds published ratings. AST45PT is not recommended for use with hydrogen. AST’s sensors are made with pride in New Jersey, USA. If in the area please feel free to stop by for a visit!

Installation/Applications - The purchaser is responsible for media compatibility, functional adequacy, and correct installation of the transmitter. The nose cone is installed on the sensor with Loctite®. To remove, hold the sensor by the hex with a wrench. Put a screwdriver through both holes of the nose cone and turn counterclockwise. The level sensor will have a 1/4” NPT Male pressure port.
