The AST4530 submersible pressure transducer is constructed using PVDF material and a PTFE diaphragm. 

Designed to measure liquid level of corrosive liquids, the AST4530 features submersible PVDF cable, cord grip and housing. The AST4530 features a conduit connection for turbulent installations such as on-board ships, turbulent tanks, and rail cars. 

Voltage and 4-20mA output signals allow users to interface for low current consumption or long distance transmission applications. The AST4530 is CSA157 certified to Class I Div 1, Groups C and D for use in intrinsically safe areas with an approved barrier, ANSI/ISA 12.27.01 Single Seal Approved and ATEX / IECEx Exia IIB Class I, Zone 0, T4. CAN/CSA C22.2 No 60079-0:11, ANSI/ISA 60079-0:09, CAN/CSA E60079-11:02, ANSI/ISA 60079-11:11, CAN/CSA C22.2N.157-92, UL 913 (6th Edition).
