DatasheetThe pressure range for Vertex is now available from 250 – 10,000 PSI. Vertex is more accurate within our Polymer Test equipment than any other mercury-filled sensor and is ideal for industrial applications that require low pressure. Not only is this an overall improvement to one’s process, but it helps with customers that are focused on sustainability and zero-waste.
