Watson Smith - Controlling Pressure Worldwide
Rugged Electronic Pressure Converter
TYPE 443


Features

 4-20mA feedback
 Failsafe or fail in position
 High accuracy

General Description

The type 443 electro-pneumatic converter is designed for demanding process control applications in which stability, ruggedness and versatility are essential. It accepts a variety of analogue signal inputs, including 4-20mA, and has built-in auto/manual control facilities for
raise/lower switch or potentiometer control.

This model is an improved version of the well established
440 electro pneumatic converter with increased flexibility, convenience and ruggedisation.
