Setra’s Model 280 is a high accuracy transducer for measuring gauge, absolute and compound pressure offering superior performance at an affordable price. Its highly-engineered range specific capacitance sensor enables accuracies up to ±0.073% FS giving the 280 superior linearity to competitive sensors. The 280’s design offers customers a low-cost solution for measuring absolute pressure in Test and Measurement applications. The slim design and simple electrical interface allow users to install the unit in many difficult applications.
High Accuracy For Demanding Applications The Model 280 pressure transducer’s variable capacitance design uses an all stainless steel sensor cap designed for a specific pressure range. The sensor is linearized and thermally compensated during manufacturing to optimize the sensor’s linearity for maximum accuracy in demanding applications.
Low Cost Absolute Sensor
The Model 280 is Setra’s highest price to performance
sensor for measuring absolute pressure. The simple
configurable design enables the transducer to be configured
for an absolute reference by adding a hermetically-sealed
evacuated enclosure to the existing sensor design, allowing
for an affordable price without sacrificing quality.
Improved Serviceability
The transducer’s pressure and electrical fittings cover many
installation configurations, allowing it to fit into most
applications. The Model 280G is equipped with zero and
span potentiometers, allowing the user to maintain the high
performance over the life of the sensor.
