Setra’s 231 is a multi-configurable, wet-to-wet differential pressure transducer offering the user an all-in-one device with field selectable pressure ranges and analog outputs. The device is offered with an optional 3 or 5 valve machined brass manifold for ease of installation and maintenance. The 231 has a robust, NEMA 4 enclosure with a hinged, captive cover allowing for easy access to switches for adjusting the range and output. An optional display is available that allows users to view high, low, and differential pressure readings on a simple rotating cycle.

Key Benefits

  • Field selectable pressure ranges
    The 231 offers 8 field selectable pressure ranges which can be changed using a slide switch, reducing risk of installing the wrong range unit. The multi-range functionality allows the user to hold less inventory and add additional flexibility in the field.
  • Quick and simple installation
    The 231 provides the user with an optional 3 or 5 valve machined brass manifold which can save money on installation and maintenance. The single piece construction of the brass body has no internal process connections, eliminating the risk of internal leaks.
  • Robust enclosure for difficult applications
    The 231 NEMA 4 housing offers an optional LCD display for instant indication of the high, low and differential pressure readings. A hinged enclosure makes it suitable for harsh environments and saves the hassle of misplacing it when completing a difficult installation.
