AST46HA high accuracy explosion-proof pressure transmitter is CSA approved for use in hazardous areas. Applying digital compensation, this product offers top performance over a wide temperature range. Utilizing Krystal Bond Technology™, the sensing element will measure pressure in the most extreme temperature conditions. Where other sensor technologies will freeze or boil, the AST46HA uses a one piece stainless steel sensor to offer continuous operation.
