The P8AP pressure transducer precisely measures liquid and gas pressures up to 500 bar with an accuracy class of 0.3. It is equipped with HBM’s high-grade strain-gauge technology and ideally suited for dynamic and static measurement tasks, for instance, in hydraulic test benches or hydraulic systems of construction and agricultural machinery. The 500-bar version has been certified in accordance with OIML R60 D0.3 and has thus been approved for use as a diaphragm load cell in legal-for-trade applications. Examples of such applications include weighing the material in an excavator bucket or determining the weight on a forklift fork.

The P8AP reliably withstands overloads of up to 1.75 times its nominal (rated) pressure owing to its robust and corrosion-resistant steel measuring body. It can be permanently used in many different industrial environments due to its IP67 degree of protection. The pressure transducer offers extreme temperature stability. The high-temperature version, which is also available, provides precisely measured data at temperatures of up to +140°C. The P8AP is available with six nominal (rated) measuring ranges with different cable lengths and various pressure connectors. It is the right solution for many industrial pressure measurements.
