Robust construction with high-tech capacitive silicon chip

Operating principle of the capacitive pressure sensor

The silicon sensing element receives a pressure differential that varies two capacitive values.
The siliicum chip is mounted floating in the neck of the measuring cell to obtain high static pressure and temperature characteristics.

Advantages of the industrial pressure transmitter with capacitive cell

Thanks to the silicon membrane of the microcapacitive element, hysteresis is minimised.
The result is excellent stability and reproducibility.

The optimised structure improves the output and long-term stability of your pressure transmitter.

Excellent zero stability
High reliability over time
Resistance to overpressure
Reduction of hysteresis constraints
Reduction of mechanical fatigue

An advanced floating cell

The floating cell protects the pressure transducers from harsh environmental conditions, ensuring long-term stability.
The small size of the cell allows easy handling while providing improved temperature and static pressure.
Water hammer and excessive pressure surges are controlled.

improve visibility of your process pressure

Improve the pressure visibility of your industrial process with an integrated digital indicator

Digital indicator

Fuji Electric's FCX-AIV V6 series pressure transmitters are equipped with digital indicators for pressure measurement. Thanks to the bar graph on the display, the output level can be quickly and intuitively understood in the same way as with an analogue indicator. The simultaneous display in physical magnitude allows precise reading of the measurement. The bargraph function allows you to quickly view your pressure measurement. In the event of an anomaly, the display of an error code on the screen enables users to understand and react quickly to the situation.

Easy, accurate reading of measured pressure

The digital indicator consists of a 2-line, 6-digit LCD display and 3 push-buttons for accurate reading of the measured pressure. It displays the measurement in physical units and allows local configuration of all the pressure transmitter's setting parameters. The push-buttons and digital display provide an intuitive, easy-to-understand interface for configuring the instrument.

On-site pressure transmitter configuration

All the pressure sensor parameters are available via the 3-button digital indicator. You can configure and adjust the data using a magnetic pen and without opening the cover of the indicator.

Main settings available on the pressure sensor indicator

Easy configuration with digital pressure sensor field tools

FCX-AIV V6 Smart pressure transmitters are equipped with a HART® version 7 communication interface.

A portable HART communication tool or a computer equipped with configuration software and a HART modem can be connected.

Instruments are quickly configured and configurations saved.
Fuji Electric offers a complete set of FDT (Field Device Tool) drivers free of charge for DTM (Device Type Manager) software users.

This allows you to troubleshoot, configure and access full settings using PACTware™ (or another FDT compatible program).

Industrial pressure transmitter with SIL 2 / SIL 3 certification (IEC 61508)

Reduce the probability of failure by integrating fcx-aiv into your safety loop

Thanks to its exceptional SFF, the SIL2/SIL3-certified FCX-AIV pressure sensor is the preferred choice of I&C engineers when the design of a safety function is required.
The implementation of Safety Instrumented Systems in the process industry (IEC 61511) allows risks to be reduced to a targeted and acceptable level and the maintenance strategy to be organised to maintain this level of safety.

pressure transmitter industrial with sil2 sil3 certification diagram

With SIL 3 capability, the FCX-AIV V6 is certified as a SIL2 (HFT=0) or SIL 3 (HFT=1) integrated safety system.
It complies with IEC 61508 and IEC 61511 standards.

The high level of safety of the AIV V6 pressure transmitter is guaranteed by its SFF (Safety Failure Fraction) rate of over 92.3%.

The SFF of the pressure transmitter is defined as the ratio: [Average rate of failures detected (safe and dangerous) + not detected (safe) ] / Total average rate of failures experienced.

Explosion proof and Intrinsically Safe pressure transmitter

FCX-AIV explosion-proof pressure transmitters are specifically designed to operate safely in hazardous environments where there is a risk of explosions due to the presence of flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust such as mines, chemical plants and oil refineries.

The explosion proof pressure transducers are certified in accordance with IECE standards(International). They meet strict requirements for ignition protection and can be safely installed in environments with potentially explosive atmospheres.

FCX-AIV Intrinsically safe pressure transmitters are designed for use in environments where there is a high risk of ignition but demand a higher level of safety than explosion-proof devices. These devices have undergone rigorous testing and are suitable for use in hazardous areas

Fuji Electric explosion-proof and intrinsically safe pressure transmitters maintain safety and reliable pressure measurement in your industries with potentially explosive atmospheres.
