🛠️ Siemens SITRANS P210 Pressure Transmitter: Compact Low-Pressure Measurement and Reliable Industrial Performance

What is Siemens SITRANS P210 Pressure Transmitter?

Siemens SITRANS P210 is a compact, single-range pressure transmitter developed specifically for low-pressure applications in gases and liquids.

The P210 family features stainless steel wetted parts, a piezoresistive measuring cell, and various electrical connection options, making it suitable for machine building, energy systems, water supply, shipbuilding, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Siemens technical documentation defines P210 directly for low-pressure applications.

SITRANS P210 Product Family and 7MF1566 MLFB Structure

SITRANS P210 belongs to the 7MF1566 product family.

Examples from Siemens Industry Mall:

  • 7MF1566-3AC00-1GA1 → 0…250 mbar relative pressure, 4–20 mA 2-wire output, 1/2"-14 NPT male process connection, FPM sealing

  • 7MF1566-3AA01-1AA1 → 0…100 mbar relative pressure, 4–20 mA 2-wire output, G1/2" male process connection, Ex i option

📌 Note: “7MF1566” alone is not sufficient. The full MLFB / Article Number must be checked to define the correct product configuration.

 

SITRANS P210 Measuring Ranges

Measuring Range Max Overload Limit Burst Pressure
0…100 mbar 2 bar 2 bar
0…160 mbar 2 bar 2 bar
0…250 mbar 2 bar 2 bar
0…400 mbar 2 bar 2 bar
0…600 mbar 2 bar 2 bar
 
 
 
 
 

📌 P210 is designed for low-pressure measurement only. For higher ranges (e.g., 0–10 bar, 0–25 bar, 0–100 bar), other SITRANS P models must be considered.

 

SITRANS P210 Operating Principle

Pressure is converted into an electrical signal using the piezoresistive principle.

  • 4–20 mA versions → DC 7…33 V supply

  • 0–10 V versions → DC 12…33 V supply

  • Ex versions → DC 10…30 V supply
