Pressure Transducers
AST4520 Flush Diaphragm Level Transmitters
The AST4520 Flush Submersible liquid level sensor is the cost effective solution for level monitoring of turbulent tanks with viscous media. Approved to UL/cUL913 Class 1 Division 1 IS, Groups C and D with an approved barrier, the product ensures a safe, reliable source for level measurement. The AST4520 is also certified to ATEX / IECEx Class I Zone 0 Exia IIB T4 Ga (Ta = -40°C to +80°C).
The AST4520 is offered with pressure ranges from 0-2.5 to 0-15 PSIG. The AST4520 steel cage front end design allows for proper flow of liquids while keeping the sensor at the bottom of the tank or well. With an engraved stainless steel housing and Kynar PVDF cable, this sensor is built to handle the toughest environments.
