The Ashcroft® A4 pressure transmitter is ideal for a broad spectrum of pressure sensing requirements where Intrinsically Safe or Non-Incendive hazardous location ratings are required. The Ashcroft® A4 is designed and manufactured to provide the user with accurate, reliable, and stable output data. This is accomplished through the use of an on board microprocessor, that is programmed during a unique digital compensation process, to provide extremely linear and precise performance over the entire specified pressure and temperature range.
