The instrument’s pioneering capacitive
measurement cell is manufactured in
ceramic, a material impervious to
chemical attack for most applications.
Careful design of the sensor means the
diaphragm is fully supported and
protected against overload and shock
pressure conditions.
Advanced signal processing provides an
increased operational span and
sensitivity compared with conventional
capacitive devices, reducing the number
of nominal ranges to 4 to cover all tank
depths up to 50 meters WG, all with the
same high performance levels.
The transmitter body is manufactured
from high integrity 316 stainless steel
and employs a carefully engineered seal
assembly in a choice of materials, which
draws upon PSM many years of
application experience to provide a fully
submersible (IP68) construction capable
of withstanding the toughest operating
conditions.
Advanced features are not confined to
mechanical design. The iCT features a
powerful onboard micro-controller
utilizing a unique digital processing
principle, to precisely monitor the
pressure related output of the capacitive
cell. Ambient temperature is also
monitored to provide a fully
compensated level signal. The level
signal can then be further processed by
a comprehensive range of functions and
outputs, all under the user’s control.
