Gauge pressure transmitter PGS100

Gauge Pressure Transmitter PGS100

Gauge pressure transmitter PGS100 is a compact, reliable, essential device suitable for liquid, gas or steam applications. It is a straightforward and robust instrument designed for rapid delivery and easy installation and use. Thanks to its rugged design offering high resistance in even the most demanding environments, this gauge pressure transmitter PGS100 is a competitive solution for most applications, including those in hazardous areas.

Specifications:

Base accuracy : ± 0.25 % (optional ± 0.1 % and 0.075%)

Span limits: from 3 mbar (1,2 in H2O) up to 100 bar (1450 psi)

Output signal: –4 to 20 mA analog signal or 4 to 20 mA analog signal with HART digital protocol

Local operation with new easy-to-use HMI (Human Machine Interface) with backlight option for environments with poor lighting. Two-button touch display avoids the need to remove the transmitter cover to operate device in the field.

Devices with a permissible pressure PS > 200 bar conforms to PED Directive 2014/68/UE; devices with a permissible pressure PS ≤200 bar conforms to SEP Sound Engineering Practices

Overview

PGS100 is the new gauge pressure transmitter from ABB, designed to fit markets with standard specifications but subject to fast-to-serve dynamics.

Its compact stainless steel housing grants robustness, resistance to humidity and vibration, while incorporating a high visibility display with backlight option. Ease of use of the touch HMI is enhanced by the Easy Setup feature, a firmware option to easily configure device parameters from the display itself.

ABB’s unique technologies like Diaflex (anti‑abrasion) or H‑Shield (anti‑hydrogen permeation) come handy if applications demand more.

PGS100 offers integral process connections to be combined with a wide selection of adapters and flanges to ensure mechanical fitting to any process point, including the ABB M26 manifold range.

Its new QR code option, Digital Access Diagnostic, details operational messages and enables fast access to useful supporting information on the device and its status with suggestions for correcting errors or faulty conditions, as well as details of possible root causes, thus reducing the reaction time to field occurrences.

Typical Applications of Gauge Pressure Transmitter PGS100

The gauge pressure transmitter PGS100 is widely used in applications where a cost‑effective yet reliable pressure measurement is needed. Common examples include:

Hydraulic and pneumatic system pressure monitoring
Pump discharge pressure in water treatment plants
Boiler feed water pressure measurement
Compressor discharge pressure in industrial gases
General process pressure in chemical and petrochemical facilities
Pressure measurement in HVAC and building automation systems

Why Choose PGS100 for Your Application

Unlike high‑end models with advanced diagnostics or SIL certification, the gauge pressure transmitter PGS100 focuses on delivering stable, accurate pressure measurement at a competitive price with fast availability. It is ideal for projects where a robust, no‑frills transmitter is required without long lead times.

For applications that involve abrasive media or hydrogen permeation risks, the optional Diaflex or H‑Shield technologies can be added, making PGS100 more versatile than typical compact transmitters in its class.

Installation and Accessories

The PGS100 supports integral process connections, and with the ABB M26 manifold, installation and zeroing become easier. For flange mounting, a wide range of adapters and flange kits are available. When the process medium is hot, corrosive, or viscous, a remote diaphragm seal can be added – please consult SIY Electric for seal selection.
