    What is the accuracy of the PX409 Series?

    The PX409 Series has a high accuracy of ±0.08% BSL and includes linearity, hysteresis, and repeatability. To obtain their high accuracy and stability, the PX409 Series uses state-of-the-art digital mapping of the temperature, pressure, and output performance of the silicon sensor in conjunction with a custom ASIC to provide dynamic thermal compensation across the temperature and pressure parameters.

    Is the PX409 Series suitable for any liquid and gas applications?

    OMEGA piezoresistive pressure transducers have a proven record in high performance commercial and aerospace applications for over 25 years. The piezoresistive process and the construction of the PX409 Series provides a very rugged transducer with exceptional accuracy, stability, and thermal effects. The PX409 Series is all stainless steel (316 SS) wetted parts. Please ensure the media under measurement is compatible with wetted parts.

    What is the power supply for the PX409 Series?

    The power supply of the PX409 Series depends on the output of the chosen model and power supply fluctuation protection is standard on all models. Please refer to the table below for details.

    Output Model

    Power Supply

    0 to 5 Vdc

    10 to 30 Vdc@10 mA

    0 to 10 Vdc

    15 to 30 Vdc@10 mA

    4 to 20 mA

    9 to 30 Vdc

    10 mV/V

    Ratiometric 5 to 10 Volts DC

    Is the PX409 Series calibrated?

    The Px409 Series are calibrated using extremely high accuracy equipment and a 5-point NIST traceable calibration certificate that is included with each transducer. It is recommended that the sensor be recalibrated once a year. The most popular ranges and configurations are stocked for immediate delivery. All others typically have a very short lead-time.

    How can I install a PX409 Series in a pipe? Does it need a specific orientation (vertical or horizontal)?

    The PX409 Series has a ¼ - 18 NPT male fitting that is threaded into a pipe fitting for installation. There is no specific orientation needed – the unit is calibrated in the vertical direction with fitting down. The sensor is designed to be quickly customized to meet your exacting specifications, often with fast delivery.

    You can specify the "pressure type" measurement as "gauge" or "vacuum". What exactly does the vacuum pressure type mean? It is the same as absolute pressure?

    Asked by: JoeyH9
    A vacuum-type sensor is like a negative gauge, the signal has a negative scale, meaning the low output will be when the pressure is at zero, and as the pressure DECREASES the signal will INCREASE

    Is there an option to add grid lines to the charting area?

    Asked by: Domenic
    If this option could be added in a future update, it would be very helpful for reading the chart area while test is running in real time. This can give the user a faster indication of the test results. Thank you.

    Will MMDDB2.5BIV10P4C5T1A3, listed as bi-directional differential pressure, 0-2.5 psi, read vacuum if the low port is connected to the vacuum process and the high port open to atmosphere? Will it work with both ports across different vacuums?

    Asked by: Ed5280
    If you connect a vacuum to the low and leave the high port open to atmosphere the unit will output 0 to -10VDC if a vacuum id applied to the LOW port. If you apply varying vacuums to both ports the unit will respond with a sign representing the difference between the vacuums applied ranging from -10VDC to +10VDC

    What is the resolution limit on this device? I'm interested in your 0-2 bar sensor and what the lowest pressure value it is able to measure accurately.

    Asked by: Ben_
    Resolution would depend on how small of a signal change the instrumentation used to read the 0 to 10VDC output can resolve. The sensor will read from 0 to 2 bar but the lower 10% of the range (0 to 0.2 bar) would end to be less accurate

    Are the high accuracy transducers rated for use with hydrogen?

    Asked by: jrea98
    We do not recommended using our transducers in a hydrogen application due to embrittlement of the wetted parts when exposed to hydrogen

    Hi, we have a PX409-16BI transmitter that we are developing a validation procedure for. Stated zero and span tolerances are +/- 0.5% FS typical with a +/- 1% FS maximum. Which should I use for validation? (BSL is not a validation tolerance)

    Asked by: John314
    You would use the +/- 1% FS max

    When you say accuracy, are you referring to the resolution or the measurement, or the actual measurement accuracy? What are the respective values of each?

    Asked by: Julian
    Thank you for contacting Omega. The PX409 is a full analog path sensor, meaning it's resolution is essentially infinite. The accuracy we specify details the uncertainty of the output. We specify the combined uncertainty contributed by non-linearity, repeatability, and histories.

    I have to return a couple of these pressure sensors to a client overseas (UK). But before my company can ship them, we need to know the ECCN export number. Please supply the ECCN for these items... PXM419-070BA10V. Thank you.
