P158

Refrigeration Pressure Transducers

Description Features
The model P158 is based on SAE female Process Connection
Kavlicos ceramic capacitive with Built-in Schrader Deflator
technology with a custom ASIC. Linear Amplified Output
The Brass housing surrounds a Temperature Compensated
pressure transducer designed Superior Long Term Stability
specifically for refrigeration Excellent Repeatability/Hysteresis
applications. It can endure the high EMI/RFI Rejection
vibration, broad temperature ranges Low Power Consumption
and humidity conditions found in Ten Million Cycle Life Expectancy
refrigeration systems while Outstanding Shock &
withstanding high over- pressures Vibration Performance
and pressure pulsations without Over Voltage, Reverse Polarity
damage or degradation. and Short Circuit Protection

The P158 package has a built-in Applications Standard Full Scale

Metri-Pack 150, electrical connector
and supports male and female
High and Low Side Pressure Pressure Ranges
Measurements in
process connections. The P158 is Refrigeration Systems 0-100, 150, 300, 400, 500
offered with seal materials that are Product Refrigeration and 750 PSIA, PSIS
suitable for many of the latest Refrigerant Recovery
refrigerants such as R134a, R22, Transport Refrigeration
R123, R12, including many of the Environmental Test Equipment
proprietary blends, and
assocated lubricants.
