Description
Main Body
Evaluating lifecycle metrics for legacy vessel systems demands strict attention to component lead times. The Druck PDCR 250-2967 serves as a specialized vapor pressure transmitter tightly integrated into marine tank level monitoring systems, primarily supporting Saab TankRadar and Rosemount VPS5810 setups. Because a failing transmitter compromises custody transfer data, treating this instrument as a low-priority consumable threatens compliance and operations.
Operating parameters for this transmitter show high reliability but severe procurement volatility on the secondary market. If an element fails during cargo processing, the financial penalties of an extended stock-out compound by the hour.
Parameter: Value
Part Number: Druck PDCR 250-2967 (Type 2967/B)
Pressure Range: -100 to +300 mbar g (Variant up to +900 mbar g available)
Output Voltage: 5.6 to 7.0 V DC
Excitation Voltage: 7 V DC maximum (Ui = 7 V)
Intrinsic Safety Certification: Ex ia IIC T4 Ga (Nemko 01ATEX162)
Ambient Temperature Limits: -40 °C to +80 °C
Wetted Architecture: Silicon diaphragm with integrated titanium housing
Deploying this instrument in highly corrosive chemical vapor fields requires secondary isolation barriers. If exposed directly to incompatible acidic media outside its standard hydrocarbon rating, the silicon sensor core degrades rapidly. This specific unit is not recommended for installations where the process fluid exceeds the baseline chemical thresholds of its titanium-welded structure without an approved isolating diaphragm.
Quick Conclusions
- Maintain an active buffer stock of 1 to 2 units per active vessel.
- Source only factory sealed or certified refurbished units showing clear ATEX compliance tags.
- Formulate secondary supplier frame agreements to counter long international shipping delays.
FAQ
- What system frameworks natively support this transducer? The module operates within Saab Tankstar, TankRadar, and Rosemount VPS5810 tank management configurations.
- Can I service the internal calibration parameters myself? No, the final assembly is completely electron-beam welded and encapsulated, meaning all internal configurations are fixed at the factory.
