The Standard for Cooling Intelligence
In the cooling industry, the greatest enemy of electronics is the "sweating" of pipes. The HPM135 Refrigerants Industry Measurement Pressure Transmitter is built to conquer this challenge. When you hold the HPM135, its cold-forged stainless steel body communicates a sense of industrial permanence. This is a tool designed for the technician who is tired of replacing failed sensors during peak summer loads.
By integrating the HPM135 into your system, you are choosing a silent guardian. It doesn't just measure pressure; it provides a steady, noise-free signal that allows your VFDs and compressors to ramp up and down with fluid precision. You will notice the difference in the smoothness of your system's cycle and the reduction in "ghost" alarms that often plague lower-quality sensors. The HPM135 offers that rare combination of high-end sensing technology and "install-and-forget" durability, ensuring that your maintenance focus remains on high-level optimization rather than emergency repairs.
Core Technology & Sensing Element
The core of the HPM135 is where true engineering excellence resides. Unlike standard silicon-based sensors that can suffer from non-linearity and drift when exposed to rapid thermal cycling, our High-Alumina Ceramic Diaphragm is inherently robust.
Piezoresistive Precision: The ceramic sensing element utilizes dry-cell technology, meaning there is no internal oil to leak or freeze. This ensures that the response remains lightning-fast and accurate even at sub-zero temperatures.
Extreme Stability: With a long-term drift of less than 0.2% FS per year, the HPM135 ensures that your system remains calibrated for years of operation.
Corrosion Resistance: The ceramic face is naturally resistant to the chemical aggression of modern refrigerants and the acidic nature of aged compressor oils, providing a secondary layer of protection beyond the stainless steel housing.
Anti-Condensation & Protection Design
Moisture is the leading cause of premature sensor failure in HVAC applications. The HPM135 utilizes a proprietary multi-stage sealing strategy to ensure environmental isolation.
Hermetic Sealing: Every HPM135 undergoes a specialized potting process where the internal electronics are encased in a hydrophobic, thermally conductive gel. This gel displaces air, ensuring that no internal condensation can form even when the pipe temperature drops far below the dew point.
Vibration Mitigation: Industrial compressors generate significant harmonic vibration. Our internal circuit boards are mechanically stabilized and stress-relieved, preventing fatigue-related failures in solder joints—a common issue in cheaper "glued" sensors.
Advanced Ingress Protection: Whether using the Packard connector, M12, or a direct-leaded cable, each interface is designed to maintain a high IP rating, shielding the internals from rain, wash-downs, and humidity.
Media Compatibility & System Integration
Modern refrigeration demands versatility. The HPM135 is designed to be the "universal donor" for cooling system pressure measurement.
Full Refrigerant Support: Tested extensively with R410a, R134a, R22, R404a, and the latest low-GWP refrigerants. The materials are selected to ensure zero degradation over the sensor's lifespan.
Flexible Signal Architecture: We understand that every controller is different. That is why we offer both traditional analog loops (4-20mA) for long-distance stability and digital I2C interfaces for smart, IoT-enabled manifolds that require high-resolution data with minimal power consumption.
EMC/RFI Hardening: In an era of high-frequency power electronics, the HPM135 includes integrated filtering to protect against electromagnetic interference from nearby motors and drives, ensuring your data remains clean and actionable.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the HPM135 withstand high-pressure spikes during compressor start-up?
A: Yes, the HPM135 is designed with an overload pressure rating of 150% and a high burst pressure safety margin. This allows it to handle the transient surges common in industrial cooling cycles without losing accuracy or suffering mechanical damage.
Q: Is the sensor compatible with the newer CO2 or Ammonia systems?
A: For standard HPM135 units, we focus on HFC/HCFC compatibility. However, we offer specialized versions with upgraded 316L stainless steel and specific seals for Ammonia or CO2 applications. Please contact our technical team for the specific model codes for these media.
Q: What type of electrical connection is best for high-vibration environments?
A: For high-vibration applications, we strongly recommend the M12 or Packard connectors. These provide a mechanical locking mechanism that prevents the connection from loosening over time, unlike traditional Hirschmann connectors which may require additional securing.
Q: Do you provide calibration certificates with each shipment?
A: Every unit is factory-calibrated. For large-scale projects or specific quality requirements, we can provide individual calibration certificates and material traceability reports (MTRs) upon request to support your compliance needs.
