Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical manufacturing, and in particular to a non-magnetic housing structure for a pressure transmitter. Background Technology
[0002] The non-magnetic housing structure of the pressure transmitter effectively prevents external magnetic fields from interfering with the transmitter's measurement accuracy, ensuring that it can accurately and stably measure pressure signals; it avoids the magnetic field generated by itself from affecting surrounding electronic equipment; it improves the product's adaptability and reliability in complex electromagnetic environments, ensures the accuracy of pressure measurement in industrial production processes, and thus enhances the stability and safety of the entire production system.
[0003] With the continuous advancement of technology and constant product updates, thermal instruments are also constantly being upgraded. Among them, the brands and types of intelligent pressure transmitters are so numerous that users are dazzled. Because the sensors and flanges of intelligent pressure transmitters need to withstand high pressure during operation, the materials for the sensors and flanges are made of stainless steel; the electronic components are installed inside the converter housing, so the converter housing material is generally die-cast aluminum alloy.
[0004] In existing technologies, the housing material of some converters is generally die-cast aluminum alloy. Although the transmitter with the housing material of die-cast aluminum alloy is lightweight and low cost, its explosion-proof performance, sealing performance and housing corrosion resistance are not as good as stainless steel, which limits the application of intelligent pressure transmitters. To address this issue, a non-magnetic housing structure for pressure transmitters is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a non-magnetic housing structure for a pressure transmitter, aiming to improve the problem that the housing material of some converters in the prior art is generally die-cast aluminum alloy, but its performance limits the application of intelligent pressure transmitters.

[0009] The above technical solution allows for a tight fit when the housing is installed. The second locking strip, fixed to the inner wall of the right cover, is engaged between the first locking strip and the mounting strip on the top of the mounting plate. This locking structure ensures a secure connection between the right cover and the mounting plate, guaranteeing the structural integrity of the housing. Simultaneously, an O-ring seal enhances the sealing performance, effectively preventing external dust and moisture from entering the housing, thus improving its protective effect and safeguarding the internal electronic components.

The right-side electronic components fixedly connected to the right side of the housing mounting bracket work together with the left-side electronic components to realize the various functions of the pressure transmitter. At the same time, the sealing structure between the right cover and the housing mounting bracket ensures a good working environment for the right-side electronic components.

This connection method makes the installation and removal of the right cover more convenient. At the same time, it can fit tightly during installation to ensure the overall structural strength of the shell. Furthermore, the O-ring seal increases the sealing performance and improves the protective effect of the shell.

The bottom of the sealing gasket contacts the top of the housing mounting bracket, effectively preventing external impurities from entering the assembly buttons and ensuring their normal operation. This also further improves the sealing and explosion-proof performance of the converter components.
[0022] As a further description of the above technical solution:
