ABB PxS100 Essential Pressure Transmitter

Name: ABB PxS100 Essential Pressure Transmitter
Brand: ABB

Description

Overview

The ABB PxS100 is a compact, versatile pressure transmitter engineered to fulfill the everyday pressure measurement requirements found across most manufacturing and process industries. Positioned as ABB’s essential pressure transmitter platform, the PxS100 range delivers rugged, resilient performance with a design optimized for rapid delivery, straightforward configuration, and dependable long-term operation in liquid, gas, and steam applications.

For water treatment, metals, mining, and general process facilities across Oman and the wider GCC, the PxS100 provides a flexible pressure measurement solution that can be rapidly configured to accommodate hundreds of mounting, span, and certification-equivalent combinations. Seven Star LLC supplies the ABB PxS100 essential pressure transmitter to customers across Muscat, Sohar, Salalah, and the Sultanate of Oman, providing instruments with manufacturer documentation and technical support.

Measurement and Operating Principle

The PxS100 uses a metallic sensing diaphragm to measure gauge or absolute pressure, converting mechanical deflection caused by applied pressure into an electrical output signal. ABB’s abrasive-resistant technology protects the diaphragm from erosion in demanding process media, extending the working life of the sensor in slurries, wastewater, and other abrasive applications common to the mining, pulp and paper, and water treatment sectors. The transmitter also incorporates ABB’s proprietary H-shield technology, which protects the sensing element against monatomic hydrogen ingress, a known cause of long-term drift in conventional pressure sensors exposed to certain process chemistries.

The PxS100 provides base accuracy of 0.25% of span, with an optional high-accuracy configuration improving this to 0.1%. Five measurement ranges are available, covering applications from 40 mbar (16 in H2O) up to 100 bar (1450 psi), supported by 10:1 turndown capability and full rangeability that allows a single transmitter to be applied across a range of process spans without requiring a different sensor for each application.

Engineering Design of the ABB PxS100

Housed in a compact, robust stainless steel enclosure, the PxS100 offers IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69K protection ratings, making it suitable for operation in high-humidity environments, dusty industrial atmospheres, and clean-in-place washdown applications common in food and beverage processing. The simple human machine interface (HMI) rotates for visibility from any mounting angle and supports “through the glass” configuration, allowing technicians to adjust settings using magnetic buttons without opening the electronics housing – a valuable feature for hazardous area installations.

Using ABB’s range of adaptable connectors and flanges, the PxS100 series can be rapidly configured to suit a very wide variety of process connections and mounting arrangements. QR codes printed on the transmitter nameplate give field technicians immediate access to online operating instructions and configuration guidance directly from a mobile device, reducing dependence on physical manuals during commissioning and troubleshooting. An optional backlight improves HMI readability in low-light installation environments such as indoor process areas and equipment enclosures.

Industrial Applications

The PxS100 is widely used across water and wastewater treatment, metals and mining, pulp and paper, cement, and power ancillary applications for routine gauge and absolute pressure measurement. Its abrasive-resistant diaphragm and robust IP69K-rated enclosure make it particularly well suited to slurry, washdown, and dusty process environments where lower-grade pressure transmitters would suffer premature failure.

Across Oman’s water infrastructure, mining, and general industrial sectors, including facilities supporting the Sohar and Salalah economic zones, the PxS100 gives plant engineers a dependable, rapidly available pressure transmitter for routine measurement points that don’t require the specialized engineering of ABB’s higher-end 266 series. As a supplier of ABB products, Seven Star LLC supports these projects across the Sultanate of Oman with transmitters supplied on request, configuration assistance, and technical support.

Why Choose Seven Star LLC for ABB Essential Pressure Transmitters

The PxS100’s abrasion-resistant diaphragm and H-shield hydrogen protection are genuinely valuable features only on the applications they were designed for, so confirming your process actually involves abrasive media or hydrogen exposure, rather than defaulting to the highest-specification transmitter for every measurement point, is where real cost efficiency comes from. Seven Star LLC works with your process engineers to confirm the correct PxS100 configuration for your specific process conditions before order confirmation, drawing on our trusted ABB suppliership across Oman and the wider GCC. We also support industrial facilities across Muscat, Sohar, and Salalah with IP69K-rated instrumentation planning for wash-down environments, helping specify pressure transmitters that genuinely match each application’s real operating conditions.

About brand

ABB, formed in 1988 and headquartered in Zurich, covers an unusually long stretch of a plant's equipment list, from the flowmeter and analyzer in the field to the drive, breaker and protection relay in the electrical room. Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier serving Oman and the GCC. Our ABB listing concentrates on measurement and analytics: ABB flowmeters, liquid analysis sensors and systems, level and pressure instruments. It also includes valve actuators, low voltage circuit breakers, ABB drives, soft starters and protection relays.

ABB product families on this page

Flow measurement includes ABB electromagnetic, Coriolis, vortex and swirl meters, sold under names such as ProcessMaster, AquaMaster, CoriolisMaster and SwirlMaster. Liquid analysis covers pH, conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors with their transmitters. SensyTemp TSP sensors handle temperature. On the electrical side the listing has ACS355 machinery drives, the ACS550 general purpose drive, the ACQ580 for water and wastewater and the ACS880-01 industrial drive, with fieldbus adapters such as the FPBA-01 for PROFIBUS DP.
