Dwyer Instruments IP-44 Pressure Transducer

The Dwyer Instruments IP-44 Pressure Transducer is a high-performance current to pressure transducer engineered for reliable conversion in demanding industrial environments. Designed as a force-balance device, it converts a standard 4 to 20 mA input signal into a linearly proportional 6 to 30 psi output. This unit features a built-in volume booster to ensure high flow capacity and rapid response when driving larger pneumatic actuators or final control elements. Its rugged NEMA 4X enclosure provides superior protection against splashdown and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor installations or wash-down areas. Field technicians will appreciate the flexible zero and span adjustments accessible on the front face, allowing for precise calibration in the field. With a 1/4" pressure connection and a 1/2" electrical connection, the IP-44 integrates seamlessly into existing pneumatic control loops for valve actuators, damper actuators, and pneumatic positioners.

• High Flow Capacity: Integral volume booster delivers up to 12 SCFM at 100 psig supply for fast response.
• Field Reversible: Easily switch between direct and reverse acting modes to match system logic requirements.
• Environmental Resilience: NEMA 4X (IP66) housing protects internal components from harsh conditions and moisture.
• Low Air Consumption: Efficient design maintains a typical consumption of just 0.03 SCFM, reducing overall system demand.
• Versatile Mounting: Loop-powered design supports pipe, panel, or bracket mounting at any angle.

What media is required for the Dwyer IP-44?

This unit requires oil-free, clean, dry instrument air filtered to at least 40 microns to prevent internal clogging and ensure consistent linear output.

Can the output range be adjusted in the field?

Yes, the IP-44 I/P transducer features accessible zero and span potentiometers, allowing contractors to fine-tune the 6-30 psi output to account for specific valve spring ranges or line losses.

Is this model suitable for high-vibration environments?

While the IP-44 is built for industrial use, extreme vibration can cause output fluctuations in force-balance devices; mounting in a stable, vibration-free area or using dampened brackets is recommended for maximum stability.
