Submersible pressure transmitters offer reliable and accurate measurements in challenging underwater environments. With 4-20mA current loop output and IP68 ratings, these robust sensors excel in monitoring liquid level, water depth, and pressure in submerged applications. Choose from vented models with atmospheric compensation for barometric fluctuations or non-vented options for absolute pressure measurements in isolated systems.

Applications
The ability to withstand prolonged submersion makes these transmitters indispensable for a variety of applications:
- Liquid Level Monitoring: Measure water or other liquid levels in tanks, reservoirs, and wells.
- Water Depth Measurement: Monitor water depth in rivers, lakes, and oceans for hydrological studies or navigational purposes.
- Submerged Equipment Monitoring: Measure pressure on underwater equipment such as pipelines, pumps, and valves to ensure optimal performance and identify potential issues.
- Environmental Monitoring: Monitoring water levels in rivers and lakes, tracking groundwater levels, and assessing the impact of climate change.
- Marine Research: Measuring ocean depth and pressure for scientific studies and underwater exploration.
- Industrial Automation: Controlling pumps and valves in water treatment plants, monitoring tank levels in chemical processing facilities, and optimizing processes in the oil and gas industry.
Vented vs. Non-Vented
Submersible pressure transmitters are available in vented and non-vented configurations to suit different measurement requirements:
- Vented Transmitters: These sensors feature an atmospheric vent that allows for automatic compensation of barometric pressure changes. They are ideal for applications where fluctuations in atmospheric pressure can affect the accuracy of measurements.
- Non-Vented Transmitters: These sensors provide absolute pressure measurements without the need for an air-tube connection to the surface. They are suitable for applications where access to the surface is restricted or impossible, such as in deep-sea environments or isolated systems.
Submersible pressure transmitters play a vital role in monitoring and controlling underwater processes. Their watertight construction, high reliability, and compatibility with industrial control systems make them indispensable for a wide range of applications. Whether you need to measure liquid level, water depth, or pressure in submerged equipment, a submersible pressure transmitter is the ideal solution for your underwater measurement needs.
