SF82-TX Rugged Dew-Point Transmitter: Industrial-Grade Moisture Measurement for Critical Dryer Applications
In industrial processes where precise moisture control is non-negotiable—from refrigeration dryers to medical air systems—the SF82-TX Dew-Point Transmitter stands as a reliable solution designed for continuous, accurate measurement. Engineered with rugged durability and user-centric features, this 2-wire 4-20mA transmitter ensures optimal performance in harsh environments while minimizing maintenance costs. Below is a comprehensive overview of its features, benefits, technical specifications, and frequently asked questions.
Key Features & Advantages
The SF82-TX is built to address the challenges of industrial moisture measurement with a focus on ease of use, durability, and versatility.
Core Features
- Dual Output Capabilities: Simultaneously provides analog (4-20mA) and digital (Modbus RTU over RS485) outputs, ensuring seamless integration with PLCs, SCADA systems, and electronic controllers.
- Flexible Measurement Modes: Switch between dew point (°C/°F) and ppmV moisture content to suit specific application needs, from adsorption dryers to additive manufacturing.
- Ultra-Fast Response: Detects moisture changes in <20 seconds, critical for processes requiring real-time adjustments to prevent product defects or equipment damage.
- Rugged Construction: 316 stainless steel sensor and sample blocks resist corrosion, while a range of process connections (5/8” UNF, 3/4” UNF, G 1/2”, KF40 Glove Box flange) and electrical connectors (MiniDIN 43650 C, M12) ensure compatibility with diverse systems.
Competitive Advantages
- Low Cost of Ownership: The optional service exchange program minimizes downtime by allowing quick sensor replacement, reducing maintenance labor and production losses.
- Traceable Accuracy: ±2°C (±3.6°F) dew point accuracy, backed by a 9-point calibration certificate, ensures compliance with strict industry standards (e.g., medical breathing air).
- Extended Lifespan: Sensor life of 8,000 hours and analyzer life of 16,000 hours outperform同类产品, delivering long-term reliability.
- Wide Operating Range: Re-ranges 4-20mA output within -80°C to +60°C (-112°F to +140°F) dew point, adaptable to extreme drying conditions.
Technical Specifications
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What applications is the SF82-TX ideal for?
The SF82-TX excels in refrigeration dryers, membrane dryers, adsorption dryers, medical/surgical air systems, breathing air, additive manufacturing, plastic injection moulding, and portable dew point checkers. Its rugged design and accuracy make it suitable for both fixed installations and mobile testing.
2. How does the service exchange program work?
The program allows users to request a pre-calibrated sensor module, enabling on-site replacement in minutes. This eliminates the need for sending units back for repair, drastically reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
3. Can the SF82-TX operate in high-humidity environments?
Yes, it functions reliably in measuring environments with <80% RH, though it is optimized for dry processes where moisture levels are critical (e.g., compressed air drying).
4. Is the transmitter compatible with my existing controller?
Absolutely. The 4-20mA analog output and Modbus RTU digital communication ensure compatibility with virtually all industrial controllers, SCADA systems, and data loggers.
5. How often should the sensor be calibrated?
While the sensor offers long-term stability (<±1% FS over 168 hours), we recommend annual calibration to maintain accuracy, especially in regulated industries like healthcare or aerospace.
Why Choose the SF82-TX?
For industries where moisture control directly impacts product quality, safety, and efficiency, the SF82-TX delivers unmatched reliability. Its combination of rugged construction, fast response, and flexible integration makes it the go-to choice for engineers and maintenance teams seeking to optimize dryer performance and reduce operational costs.
