PTX300 | Subsea control module sensors – Oil & gas pressure sensors

The PTX 300 series of pressure transmitters has been developed for the offshore oil and gas industries as a compact, high performance device for reliable and long term subsea use. Maintenance free, it is available with operating ranges up to 1035 bar and is fully submersible with an ambient pressure rating up to 300 bar or 3000m H2O.Originally designed for aerospace hydraulic systems, the PTX 300 series utilizes micromachined piezo-resisitive silicon pressure measurement technology, continually developed and proven for 30 years.The product is packaged to suit the specific requirements of subsea hydraulic control systems. In particular, the high pressure containment rating, hydraulic transient protection and integrity of cable/electrical connections combine with the precision measuring technology to make the PTX 300 series a leader in this field.

Pressure Measurement Operating pressure ranges A full scale (FS) pressure range may be specified between 0 – 228 bar and 0 – 1035 bar, sealed gauge (See ordering information for available ranges).

Proof pressure Proof pressure tested to 1.5 x FS pressure

Overpressure The operating pressure range can be exceeded by 1.5 x FS pressure to 1600 bar max, whichever is less.

Secondary containment pressure The transmitter will safely contain up to 1150 bar maximum without leakage of pressure media.

External case pressure Tested to 300 bar with negligible change in calibration.

Pressure media Fluids compatible with a fully welded assembly of Inconel 625 and Stainless Steel.

Transmitter Supply Voltage 10 to 32 VDC. The minimum supply voltage that must appear across the transmitter terminals is 10 VDC. and is calculated by: VMIN = VSUP – (0.02 x RLOOP)

Supply sensitivity <0.005% F.S./Volt. Insulation resistance >100M Ohm @ 500 Vdc

Output current 4 to 20mA (2-wire) proportional for zero to full scale pressure

Performance Accuracy Combined Non-linearity, Hysteresis and Repeatability: ±0.1% F.S. B.S.L.

Zero off set and span setting ±1% F.S. nominal at 23°C.

Long term stability At standard reference conditions, any calibration change will not exceed 0.1% F.S. per annum.

Temperature range Process/ambient -20 to 40°C Compensated -20 to 40°C Storage -30 to 50°C

Temperature effects ±0.5% F.S. Total Error Band.
