Pressure Sensors

Air Supply Pressure Sensor Units
The air supply pressure sensor measures magnitude of the air supply

pressure in the positioner . This field indicates the units of measure for

the air supply pressure . Values expressed are in gauge, not absolute .

Choices are:
• psig – Pounds Per Square Inch (Gauge) .
• kPa – Kilopascals (Pascal is Newton per square metre) .
• bar (default)

Following conversions exist between these units:
• 1 bar = 100,000 Pa
• 1 bar = 14 .5 psig

Output Pressure Sensor Units
The output pressure sensor measures magnitude of the air pressure in the actuator .
This field indicates the units of measure for the output pressure . Values expressed are in gauge, not absolute . Choices are:
• psig – Pounds Per Square Inch (Gauge) .
• kPa – Kilopascals (Pascal is Newton per square metre) .
• bar (default)
