2 A Sofrel Sensors CNPR/CPR, CNPI, CNPA

Level and pressure measurement

1. Presentation
CNPR
Connectable: Measurement of drinking water pressure
(pipes, etc.)
- CNPR range: 0 to 16 bar
- ¼ inch cylindrical gas connection
DIN 3852 with watertight connector
tightened using ∅ 27mm key
- Measurement of clean water pressure
- Accuracy: +/- 0.35% FSO (according to IEC 60770)
- Inbuilt surge protection
- Watertightness: IP68
- Surge resistance: 60 bar
- Optimised power consumption: -30%
CPR
Connectable: Drinking water pressure measurement
(pipes, etc.)
- CPR range: 10 or 20 bar
- ¼ inch cylindrical gas connection
DIN 3852 with watertight connector
tightened using ∅ 24mm key
- Measurement accuracy: 0.5% FSO (according to IEC 60770)
- Inbuilt surge protection
- Watertightness: IP68
- Surge resistance: 60 bar
- Optimised power consumption: -30%

CNPI
Submersible: Measures level of clean water
(reservoirs, drill holes, etc.)
- Stainless steel case
- Remotely powered 4-20 mA two-wire link
- Range: 6m, or 9m (or made to measure)
- Accuracy: +/- 0.35% FSO (according to IEC 60770)
- Inbuilt surge protection
- ACS Certification
- Highly sensitive steel sensor: any contact with other objects or
even your finger may cause damage. Do not under any
circumstances remove the black cover.
CNPA
Submersible: Measures sewage levels
- Stainless steel case
- Remotely powered 4-20 mA two-wire link
- Range: 3m, or 6m (or made to measure)
- Accuracy: +/- 0.35% FSO (according to IEC 60770)
- Inbuilt surge protection
- Suitable for wastewater or sewage
(ceramic sensor, cleaning)
- Optimised power consumption
- The sensor is delivered with a black cover; when used with
sewage, this cover must be removed before use.

 2. RTUs S500 / S4 Connections
All Sofrel sensors come with inbuilt surge protection. However, of the distance between the
Remote Terminal Unit and the sensor exceeds 200m, then a 4-20mA surge protector
must be fitted to prevent damage to the sensor.

Any sensor that was used with waste water and needs to be
shipped must include a cleaning and disinfection certificate,
otherwise the package will remain unopened.
