HM22 High-Accuracy Pressure Transmitter

Product Overview

The HM22 High-Accuracy Pressure Transmitter is jointly developed with a leading German sensor manufacturer, incorporating their precision force-sensitive silicon chip as the core sensing element. Advanced automatic temperature compensation and normalized circuit commissioning deliver outstanding accuracy of ±0.1% FS with temperature drift as low as ±0.01% FS/°C — making it one of the most temperature-stable transmitters in its class.

Covering a measurement range from -100 KPa to 100 MPa in both gauge and absolute pressure configurations, the HM22 features an all-stainless-steel fully enclosed construction rated IP67 for long-term outdoor deployment. The compact 250 g design supports multiple output formats (4–20 mA, 0–5 V, 1–5 V, 0.5–4.5 V) and optional Ex ia II CT5 intrinsic safety certification for hazardous area installations.
