Description
Its pressure range (up to 160 barg / 2321 psig) meets boiler standards covering virtually all saturated steam applications. With its corrosion-resistant tuning fork (Inconel® 718), an optional 2nd process seal (ceramic) and an extensive set of approvals (WHG, NACE, Ship, Ex, Boiler and SIL) it is the ideal device for harsh environments such as refineries or offshore platforms.
