Endress Hauser Cerabar Pressure Transmitter PMP51B PMC51B PMC71B

Product Overview

The Cerabar PMP51B, PMC51B, and PMC71B are high-performance pressure transmitters from Endress+Hauser’s latest Cerabar generation, designed for the precise measurement of absolute and gauge pressure in liquids and gases. These devices combine robust sensor technology with a user-centric design, offering intuitive operation via guided wizards and optional remote control through the SmartBlue App and a secure Bluetooth connection.

Models and Sensor Technology

  • Cerabar PMP51B: Features a metal membrane and is ideal for accurate measurement in liquids and gases. It is available with diaphragm seals for demanding applications and offers a measuring range up to 400 bar (6000 psi).

  • Cerabar PMC51B: Utilizes a ceramic membrane (Ceraphire®). It is fully vacuum-resistant up to +100°C and designed for applications requiring high system safety, with integrated membrane breakage detection.

  • Cerabar PMC71B: Equipped with a high-end ceramic membrane for premium accuracy, especially in abrasive, high-vacuum, or corrosive applications. It is fully vacuum-resistant up to +150°C.

Key Features and Benefits

  • High Accuracy: All models deliver excellent measurement precision. The PMC51B and PMP51B offer a standard accuracy of up to ±0.075% and a platinum version with ±0.055%. The PMC71B provides top-tier accuracy of ±0.05% standard and ±0.025% in its platinum version.

  • Long-Term Stability: These transmitters are designed for reliable performance over time, with long-term stability of 0.1% of URL/year for the PMP51B, and 0.10% of URL/year for the PMC51B and PMC71B.

  • Advanced Diagnostics: The PMC71B is equipped with Heartbeat Technology, enabling continuous diagnostics and on-demand verification without process interruption, as well as monitoring for process anomalies.

  • Digital Communication: All models support 4-20 mA HART communication. Options include PROFINET with Ethernet-APL and Bluetooth® wireless technology for remote access and operation via the SmartBlue App.

  • Global Approvals: The transmitters are approved for use in hazardous areas with certifications including ATEX, IECEx, CSA, and NEPSI.

Applications

The Cerabar PMP51B, PMC51B, and PMC71B are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including:

  • Pressure measurement in liquids and gases

  • Hydrostatic level measurement in tanks and vessels

  • Applications requiring high accuracy and long-term stability

  • Demanding processes with corrosive or abrasive media

Endress Hauser Cerabar Pressure Transmitter PMP51B PMC51B PMC71B

 

The Cerabar PMP51B, PMC51B, and PMC71B are high-performance pressure transmitters from Endress+Hauser’s latest Cerabar generation, engineered for precise absolute and gauge pressure measurement in liquids and gases across a wide range of industrial applications.

Models and Sensor Technology

  • Cerabar PMP51B: Features a metal membrane (316L, AlloyC, Tantal, Monel, or PTFE) for highly accurate measurement in liquids and gases. It offers a measuring range up to 400 bar (6000 psi) and is available with diaphragm seals for extreme process temperatures up to 400°C.

  • Cerabar PMC51B: Utilizes a ceramic membrane (Ceraphire®) for robust and reliable measurement. It is fully vacuum-resistant up to +100°C and offers a measuring range up to 40 bar (600 psi).

  • Cerabar PMC71B: Equipped with a premium ceramic membrane for highest accuracy requirements. It is fully vacuum-resistant up to +150°C, offers a measuring range up to 40 bar (600 psi), and features advanced Heartbeat Technology for continuous diagnostics and on-demand verification.

Performance and Accuracy

All models deliver outstanding measurement precision. The PMP51B and PMC51B offer a standard reference accuracy of up to ±0.075%, with an optional platinum version achieving ±0.055% . The PMC71B provides top-tier accuracy of ±0.05% as standard and ±0.025% in its platinum version. Long-term stability is exceptional, with values ranging from 0.05% to 0.1% of URL per year depending on the model.

Operation and Communication

The transmitters feature intuitive operation with clear, guided wizards for commissioning and proof testing . Remote operation is enabled via the SmartBlue App and optional Bluetooth® wireless technology. Communication options include standard 4-20 mA HART and PROFINET with Ethernet-APL. The PMC71B further distinguishes itself with Heartbeat Technology, enabling process verification without interruption and detection of process anomalies.

Installation and Approvals

A wide variety of process connections (threaded and flanged) and materials ensure flexible installation. The transmitters hold extensive international approvals for hazardous areas (ATEX, IECEx, CSA, NEPSI) and safety integrity (SIL), as well as drinking water and design certifications .

Applications

The Cerabar PMP51B, PMC51B, and PMC71B are ideal for:

  • Pressure measurement in liquids and gases

  • Hydrostatic level measurement in tanks and vessels

  • Demanding processes with corrosive or abrasive media

  • Applications requiring high accuracy and long-term stability
