The Intrinsically Safe Submersible Pressure Transmitter APG PT-500-P30 Series is the industry leader in terms of durability in submerged environments. It is approved for use in ATEX Zone 0 / 2, Class I Division I, and Class I Division 2 hazardous environments. The PT-500-P30 is available with a proprietary detachable, reusable cage or a permanent, welded cage. It is ideal for usage in caustic, turbulent, and unclean liquids. The PT-500 is the ideal instrument for static and dynamic pressure measurement because of its small size, integrated electronics, wide working temperature range, and durability.
It is designed for use in severe conditions. With a 316L stainless steel laser-welded body, surge, and illumination protection. Despite its durability, it is nevertheless priced for industrial application. The submersible pressure transducer was designed to be both dependable and cost-effective.
The PT-500 is a durable submersible pressure transmitter that is ideal for measuring tank liquid levels, water and wastewater applications, and well depth.

The Only One In Its Class
Built-In Lightning Protection
- Lightning strikes are always a threat to exposed electrical infrastructure – especially when it’s 40 feet underground. That’s why we’ve included built-in lightning protection as a standard feature for every model (including an intrinsically safe version).
Field Adjustable Zero
- Even the best submersible pressure transducers drift a little over time. Ours stands apart from the others because you can adjust the zero point in the field – bringing it back within spec. All it takes is a simple magnet (included). It’s easy to do and means you won’t need to have it recalibrated as often.
Re-Usable Cage
- Need to protect your sensor? The cage is the ideal solution. But it costs extra no matter who you buy from. Ours can be removed and reused when it’s finally time to replace your sensor – saving you money. Tight budgets can be challenging. Why not save as much of it as you can.
PT-500 Re-Usable Protective Cage
Low Power Consumption
- The Modbus and voltage output versions use very little power and have a very fast response time – ideal for battery-powered installations.
Tank Cloud Compatible
- As stated, the PT-500’s low power consumption makes it ideal for remote monitoring applications – especially when you’re relying on solar or battery power. The Modbus version is compatible with our online remote monitoring software, Tank Cloud. View level readings online for free on our Tank Cloud portal – levelandflow.com. You can even add in low-cost data logging and alarms. Tank Cloud means you can keep an eye on your remote tanks and wells from your office or your smartphone.
