The OPTIBAR PC 1010 is an ultra-compact pressure transmitter with recessed or front-flush ceramic diaphragm for gauge pressure measurement. It offers a cost-effective solution for basic applications with liquids and gases up to 40 bar / 580 psi and temperatures up to +125°C / +257°F. Thanks to its robust design, the pressure transmitter is ideal for long-term stable pressure and level measurement in many industries. The capacitive ceramic measuring cell offers a high degree of safety and reliability. It does not require any fill fluid and is highly resistant to overpressure and overload and therefore also resistant to pressure surges. The high-performance ceramic also makes the pressure transmitter extremely robust against abrasive and aggressive media. The OPTIBAR PC 1010 allows for a space-saving installation. It comes with various threaded connections, which are available in stainless steel as well as in non-metallic materials for increased corrosion resistance.
