2 companies list this product among what they make. Company figures are quoted from each company's own website; every card states where the relationship came from.
Manufacturer listings support early research and capability understanding. They are not certification, ranking, or transaction guarantees.
A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The typical output signal is a 4-20 mA analog current loop, as per IEC 60381-1. Other outputs may be available depending on the model, but this is the standard reference.
The operating temperature range for the electronics is -40 to 85°C, as per IEC 60721-3-1. The sensor head may have a different range, so verify with the manufacturer.
Materials on file include stainless steel (316L/304), PTFE/Teflon, ceramic (alumina), epoxy resin, and silicon. The sensor material is typically 316L stainless steel, but confirm for your application.
The listed accuracy is ±0.5% of reading per ISO 11631, but this is a reference. Always check the specific model's datasheet and confirm compliance with relevant standards with the legal manufacturer or supplier.
