SENSVISION TYP-A 100 – An Equivalent to the BD Sensors OEM 18.600 G
The BD Sensors OEM 18.600 G is a pneumatic pressure transmitter designed for low-pressure industrial applications, particularly pneumatics and general mechanical engineering. It offers nominal gauge-pressure ranges from 100 mbar to 6 bar, with measurement accuracy of up to ±0.5% FSO, flexible output configurations, and a robust stainless steel construction.
The SENSVISION TYP-A 100 offers equivalent low-pressure range coverage, silicon sensor technology, output flexibility, accuracy, and mechanical durability as the BD Sensors OEM 18.600 G. It is an ideal alternative for OEM equipment builders and industrial users requiring reliable pressure measurement in compressed-air systems and applications involving non-aggressive gases.
Like the BD Sensors OEM 18.600 G, the SENSVISION TYP-A 100 uses a silicon sensor design without media isolation, optimised for use with pressurised air and non-aggressive gases. This makes it well suited to pneumatic lines, compressed-air networks, regulators, filters, FRL assemblies, valve manifolds, actuators, and general mechanical-engineering equipment.
The SENSVISION TYP-A 100 is available in nominal gauge-pressure ranges from 0.1 bar to 6 bar, with an additional -1 bar underpressure option for vacuum-related monitoring duties. Accuracy is specified at ≤ ±0.5% of span in accordance with EN IEC 62828-2, while a 1 kHz measuring rate supports responsive measurement in dynamic pneumatic control systems.
For integration flexibility, the SENSVISION TYP-A 100 is available with standard 2-wire 4–20 mA output, optional 3-wire 0–10 V output, and optional 10–90% ratiometric output. Response times of ≤10 ms for 4–20 mA versions and ≤3 ms for 0–10 V versions support efficient pressure monitoring and control.
The transmitter includes a stainless steel pressure port and housing, FKM seals, permanent short-circuit protection, and EMC performance in accordance with EN 61326. It is designed to withstand vibration up to 10 g and shock up to 100 g for 11 ms, helping to ensure reliable operation in demanding industrial and OEM environments.
Whether replacing an existing BD Sensors OEM 18.600 G or specifying a transmitter for a new pneumatic system, the SENSVISION TYP-A 100 provides a dependable, cost-effective alternative without compromising essential pressure-measurement performance, response time, or integration flexibility.
