The AST4401 is similar to the AST4400 intrinsically safe pressure transducer, but offers the additional approval for Groups A and B. The maximum supply voltage allowable is 15.5V DC.

Design Benefits
– Class I Division 1 Groups A, B, C, D Intrinsically Safe when installed with approved barrier (UL / CSA)
– ATEX / IECEx: Class I Zone 0 Exia IIC T4 Ga (Ta = -40°C to +80°C)
– Leading sensor technology available in 316L stainless steel, Hastelloy C276 or Inconel 718
– 4-20mA or voltage outputs
