Controls<br />
Pressure Transducer<br />
The Setra Multi-Sense Series Model<br />
260 pressure transducer senses very low<br />
differential or gauge (static) pressure<br />
and converts the difference to a proportional<br />
electrical output for field-selectable<br />
uni-directional or bi-directional<br />
pressure ranges. Features include userselectable<br />
pressure ranges in fixed range<br />
performance, analog outputs and<br />
AC/DC excitation on voltage output<br />
operation.<br />
