Ceracore USC70

Proven a million times over: Our capacitive ceramic measuring cell with an outer diameter of 32.4 mm

As the heart of pressure gauges, the Ceracore capacitive ceramic measuring cell guarantees cost-efficient, reliable, and safe process control in millions of Endress+Hauser pressure gauges and customer-specific applications. The Ceracore measuring cell offers outstanding performance, flexible adaptations to your application, and application-specific configuration for safe measurements and an exceptional level of stability.

Ceracore USC70 at a glance

  • Patented technology
    Patented, metallic, active solder connection of sensor base element and membrane.
  • Ready-to-use
    The measuring cell is already pre-set at the factory (attenuation, turn-down, measuring range, etc.) as well as linearized and temperature compensated.
  • Standardized measuring ranges
    Measuring ranges from 100 mbar to 40 bar ensure flexible applicability.
  • Versatile communication
    The output signal is analog (ratiometric, absolute) or digital (SPI, UART) or combined.
  • Broad application
    High-purity ceramic (99.9% Al2O3) makes the measuring cell highly resistant to various process media and chemically neutral.
  • Customer configurable
    The measuring cell can be configured to suit the specific application.

Ceracore USC70

The Ceracore USC 70 is based on the same capacitive ceramic technology as the USC30. Only the outer diameter is almost twice as large.

  • Outside diameter of 32.4 mm
  • Standardized measuring ranges from 0 … 100 mbar to 0 … 40 bar
  • Patented metallic active solder connection of sensor base element and membrane
  • Metallic coating of the sensor base element for improved EMC compatibility and reduced installation sensitivity
  • Manufactured from high-purity ceramic (99.9% Al2O3) and is therefore highly resistant to a wide variety of process media and chemically neutral
  • As a dry measuring cell without the use of oil for pressure transmission, the Ceracore is vacuum-resistant
  • High overload resistance
  • Linearized and temperature compensated output

Interfaces for communication

  • Analogue output signal
    • Ratiometric
    • Absolut
  • Digital output signal
    • SPI
    • UART
  • Digital and analogue output signal can be combined
  • Switching output
  • Temperature output

Application-specific configuration

  • Factory pre-configured sensor (damping, turn-down, measuring range, etc.)
  • Adjustable measuring rate for optimal resolution / power consumption
  • Customer-side configuration possible
  • Output of pressure and temperature signal possible
  • Power consumption <1,6 mA

Security

  • Self-monitored measuring cell for maximum safety
  • Communication via secure protocols
