A pressure transmitter, also known as a transducer, is a mechanical device that measures the expansive force of a liquid or gaseous sample. The pressure sensitivity of the transmitter is made of steel, silicon, or other materials depending upon the composition of the analyte. The pressure transmitter is a mechanical device that is placed inside a sample to measure the expansive force exerted by it. Typically composed of a pressure sensitive surface area made of steel or silicon, this device may also use other materials depending upon the nature of the analyte to be measured. Such materials include ceramic, glass, and even elastomers such as silicone.

Pressure transmitters & transducers measure force within a liquid or gaseous sample. A common use includes in industrial processing and medical environments, to ensure precise pressure gauges for machinery and healthcare equipment. An industrial grade pressure transmitter contains a piezoresistive element and converts the measured force into voltage, current or frequency. The output of the sensor is then transmitted via an electrical transmission medium to a receiving device that interprets the data.

Accurate pressure measurements are necessary for a wide range of safe and high-quality products. Bürkert's SENTRY sensors ensure the exact pressure measurements of your samples, saving downtime and costly delays. This sensor is used to measure various real time pressures. It includes temperature transmitters, differential pressure transmitter, water-resistant pressure transmitters, high precision transmitters and other products. These sensors can be applied under various conditions with different measurement ranges, temperatures and more.
