Features Melt Pressure Sensor Series n No fill material or moving internal parts n RoHS compliant for sustainability programs n Robust Inconel diaphragm is coated with Dymax® n Diaphragm is much thicker with unique sidewall support n Available n 0-1,500 with J-type thermocouple temperature output to 0-10,000 psi pressure range capability Description Vertex™ is a Dynisco melt pressure sensor innovation that matches or exceeds the performance of the traditional sensor. The big differences are that Vertex is more robust, much faster, and significantly friendlier to the environment. A new standard in Durability, Environmental Safety, and Reliability The breakthrough technology lies at the tip of the sensor, where melt pressure is registered directly through a single, more robust diaphragm. Direct measurement eliminates errors that can arise in sensors with complicated internal structures, transmission fluids and moving push rods. The Vertex diaphragm is much thicker than those in other sensors and is made of tough Inconel 718 alloy, which provides a higher level of corrosion resistance than stainless steel. For added protection, the tip is coated with a diamond-hardened DyMax® coating. The sensor walls have been fortified to handle side stresses. With all these features, Vertex is the true definition of a robust sensor, proven to deliver long life and a low cost of ownership. Vertex design innovation also extends to the speed of response of the sensor. Faster processes and controls demand faster sensing measurements. Vertex is many times faster than traditional sensors improving real time production. Environmental regulations and community conscientiousness are driving sustainability policies and programs in large and small companies. Waste stream reduction and longer life cycles are good for the environment and the budget. Dynisco can assist because Vertex is green, very green. There is no mercury, no NaK, no oil, no Gallium, no fill material what-so-ever. Vertex is also RoHS compliant. Vertex sensors are available with 3.33mV/V or 4-20mA output signals and designed to work with universal pressure indicators. An optional J-type thermocouple is available to provide a melt temperature signal. Vertex is equipped with a 1/2-20 UNF for installation in standard transducer mounting holes. www.Dynisco.com Dynisco 38 Forge Parkway Franklin, MA 02038 USA Hotline Phone Fax Email 1-800-DYNISCO +1-508-541-9400 +1-508-541-6206 infoinst@Dynisco.com Dynisco Europe GmbH Pfaffenstr. 21 74078 Heilbronn Germany Phone Fax Email +49-7131-297-0 +49-7131-297-166 dyniscoeurope@Dynisco.com Specifications PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS Input, excitation: mV/V: 6-12VDC; mA: 16-36VDC Output, analog: 3.33mV/V or 4-20mA Accuracy*:±0.25% FS Electronics Operating Temp, max: 185°F (85°C) Zero Shift (Electronics temp):0.05%/°F (0.09%/°C) Span Shift (Electronics temp):0.005%/°F (0.009%/°C Hex/Transition Temperature (max): 300°F (150°C) Zero Shift (Hex temperature): 0.005%/°F (0.009%/°C) Overload Pressure Rating: 1.5x FS Pressure Ranges (psi): 1.5M, 3M, 5M, 7.5M or 10M Pressure Units: PSI, Bar, Kg/cm2, MPa, KPa Zero Balance Adjustment (±% FS): mV/V: na; mA: ±20% Zero Balance Setting (±% FS): mV/V: 10%; mA: ±3% Insulation Resistance: mV/V: 100 MΩ @50VDC; Internal Shunt Calibration (R-Cal): 80% FSO ±1% FS MECHANICAL & PACKAGING Sensor Technology: Diaphragm Temperature: Zero Shift (process temp change): Diaphragm Wetted Parts: Process Connection: Electrical Connection: Mounting Torque: Temperature Sensor (optional): Direct sensing 660°F (350°C), max 0.5%/100°F 0.9%/100°C Inconel 718, DyMax® coated 1/2-20 UNF (with 45˚ conical seat) Bendix PT02A-10-6P 250 in-lbs recommended, 500 in-lbs max J-type thermocouple APPROVALS & CERTIFICATIONS Marks, Certifications, Registrations: CE: ISO: Directive 2004/108/EC ISO9001:2008 production environment *A ccuracy is defined as the combined error expressed as a percentage of full scale output.
