They are available in many different designs to suit pressure and electrical connections, measuring procedures, electrical output signals, and certifications (CE, EX, rail, and ship).

About Pressure Transmitters

Pressure transmitters are electronic pressure gauges and are used to measure and monitor pressure. The term pressure transmitter is also often used for pressure transducers or pressure sensors. However, this is not a synonym, since the term pressure sensor in the narrower sense only describes a part of the pressure transmitter.
