AG200 media-isolated, digital pressure gauge has 4–20 mA output signal and large LCD that can display psi, bar, kg/cm, ATM, inches H20 and Hg measuring units. With a test button, users can evaluate loop current to ensure the system is set up correctly and adjust the current in 2 mA increments. Loop current update rate is 32 times/s; the display updates 3 times/s.

Torq-Tender overload safety couplings protect critical rotating power transmission components from torque overload. When a system's load exceeds the preset torque-spring rating, the device’s drive mechanism pivots out of an engagement slot, disengaging the prime mover from the load. Available in torque ranges of 2–3,000 in-lb with tamper-proof preset torque settings.
