Description
OMEGA’s PX3400 Series Pressure Transducer has earned a reputation for high performance, reliability and stability in tough, real-world applications. The PX3400 Series is particularly useful in deep well tools. It has a narrow body diameter of 0.75" (19mm) and pressure ranges up to 20,000 psi (1,400 bar). Two models are available, PX3425 operates up to 121°C (250°F) and the high temperature PX3435 which operates up to 177°C (+350°F). This outstanding transducer use OMEGA’s advanced sputtered thin-film sensor technology. Thousands of the PX3400 Series transducers are used for oil well logging throughout the world. Stability is critical. A transducer that shifts during a logging cycle invalidates costly data. The OMEGA’s PX3400 Series transducer uses thin-film strain gages, sputter deposited on a metal diaphragm. This advanced-technology gage system provides superior stability, especially at high temperatures often found in oil wells. The diaphragm is machined from vacuum remelted 17-4 PH stainless steel with elaborate annealing, aging and stress relieving processes to insure a stable system. The gaged diaphragm design minimizes the number of components and welds in the transducer, increasing the reliability and precision of your logging data. The heat sink effect of the diaphragm, and the high bridge resistance reduce gage self-heating, decrease warm up time and conserve battery power. A built in Platinum resistance temperature element (RTD) provides data to correct temperature effects with an external microprocessor. OMEGA’s PX3400 series transducer can be modified to meet your design requirements. A broad selection of optional features are available, including pressure and electrical connections, special testing, additional thermal compensation and 200°C (400°F) operating temperatures.
