Ultramodern welding techniques and advances in the miniaturization of electronic circuits now make it possible to manufacture a pre-insulated, piezoresistive micro-transmitter with properties that were no more than a dream 10 years ago. The circuit is based on the PromComp principle which KELLER offered in a separate version as a laboratory device 20 years ago when it attained accuracy of 0,1 %FS over a temperature range of 100 K. In those days the electronic circuitry was the size of a cigar box, but now it can be accommodated on a print that is a mere 12 mm in diameter. Although this digital component is only slightly more expensive to produce than an analog circuit, it allows a piezoresistive sensor to be calibrated to an accuracy of 0,5 %FS over a potential temperature range of 100 K. A temperature sensor divides the temperature range into fields with a width of 1,5 K each. Two values are assigned to each field in an EEPROM: one value for the zero point and another for the amplification, determined by mathematical interpolation in the calibration process. During operation, the corresponding values are ‚switched in’ at the relevant temperatures. The electronics make it possible to assign up to 120 fields so that a temperature range of 180 K can be covered. The 100 K restriction for series 21 PY is due to the sensor This means that more or less any temperature can be the ‚calibration temperature’ for these transmitters. Calibration and temperature errors within a temperature field are within ± 0,2 %FS. The remainder of the error bandwidth of ± 0,5 %FS can be attributed to linearity and stability errors. So it’s goodbye to the days when sensor engineers had to struggle every day with TKN (zero point) and TKG (gain/amplification) problems. The 21 PY product line is outstanding due to its extreme ruggedness towards electromagnetic fields. The limits of the CE standard are undercut by a factor of up to 10 with conducted and radiated fields, thus making this product ideal for use in harsh industrial environments.
The Y-line transmitters have an extremely small temperature error. This is achieved using an additional circuit containing a temperature sensor that subdivides the temperature range into fields that are 1,5 Kelvin (K) wide. The TK zero and TK compensation values are calculated for each field and programmed into the additional circuit. During operation, these values are fed into the analogue signal path depending on the temperature. Each temperature is the "calibration temperature" for this transmitter. The Series 23 (S)Y/25 Y product line is outstanding due to its extreme ruggedness towards electromagnetic fields. The limits of the CE standard are undercut by a factor of up to 10 with conducted and radiated fields.

LEO 2 is a compact, micro-processor (µP) controlled, highly accurate and versatile pressure measuring instrument with digital indication. The piezoresistive pressure transducer as the heart of the instrument has gone through extensive pressure- and temperature tests. Its characteristics are stored in the instruments internal EEPROM. The µP of the LEO 2 reads the characteristic values and calculates therefrom the pressure to an accuracy of < 0,1 %FS at room temperature. The pressure is measured twice per second and displayed. The top display indicates the actual pressure, the bottom display shows the Max.- or Min.- pressure since the last RESET. Also available as intrinsically safe version (LEO 2 Ei).
The LEO 5 combines the notable features of Keller’s successful LEO-Record and LEX 1 digital pressure gauges, featuring an IP66-rated stainless steel enclosure. This robust housing combines contemporary microcontroller-based electronics and capacitive-touch controls, operated through the environmentally-sealed safety glass front panel. The large backlit LCD display ensures readability in any lighting conditions. Two selectable measurement modes, standard and peak, are included to ensure maximum versatility. In standard mode, high-resolution pressure measurements are taken twice per second. When operating in peak mode, sampling frequency increases to 5 kHz with 16 bit resolution. The LEO 5 interfaces with a PC via USB connectivity, allowing access to active measurements and recorded data including pressure, peak pressure, temperature, and measurement interval. PC connection also allows device configuration, firmware updates, and recharging of the integral accumulator power supply. The unique modular design of the LEO 5 makes possible adaptation to customer-specific measuring requirements.
LEO 5 CA offers a user-friendly way to represent the pressure measurement at the bottom of a tank as the quantity of remaining liquid. At the push of a button, the microcontroller performs the calculations using the information of the tank shape and dimensions and displays the remaining tank content quantity on the clearly legible 5-digit LED display in the desired unit (litres, gallons etc.). The unit is configured using a PC and the easy-to-use software so that the filling level, which determines the pressure, can be converted into an appropriate filling quantity. First the tank shape is selected, then the tank dimensions and the specific gravity of the liquid are entered. It contains the most current tank shapes. The program covers the most common tank shapes, but also enables any shape by entering the parameters into a specified table. The exclusive use of absolute pressure sensors in the LEO 5 CA system eliminates the use of capillary vented cables with all the problems associated with a gauge pressure measurement. The LEO 5 CA housing integrates an air pressure sensor, ranged between 0,8 bar and 1,2 bar absolute. The sensors to measure the hydrostatic pressure at the bottom of the tank are calibrated from 0,8 to 1,8 bar abs for tanks up to 5 m in height, and 0,8 to 2,3 bar abs for tanks up to 10 m in height. The pressure difference, calculated by the micro-controller, is the relative hydrostatic pressure. The content of a pressurised tank is determined using the difference between the measurements from two absolute pressure sensors located at the top and bottom of the tank An accuracy of the system of up to 2 mbar (corresponding to a 2 cm water column) is achieved using a computerised calibration and compensation procedure for the pressure sensors. LEO 5 CA makes it possible to connect various pressure probe transmitter versions (with thread, front-flush with flange, or submersible sensors). The power supply to the system (8 to 28 V) can be provided externally or internally from an accumulator or a battery. The display is obtained by pressing the button on the front, and the value appears for a configurable duration. The LEO 5 CA has two switch outputs with configurable functionality and threshold values. The device must be supplied externally if the switch outputs are used.
