Product Details

1. Product Overview

The ABB 266DRHFSRRSA7E8LSB2I2 is a differential pressure transmitter with remote diaphragm seals from the ABB 266 series, model 266DRH, designed for differential pressure, level, and flow measurement applications requiring remote mount installation. This transmitter is equipped with a dual remote seal system, transferring process pressure to the transmitter sensor via capillary tubes, suitable for measuring high-temperature, corrosive, high-viscosity, crystallizing, or solids-containing media.

This transmitter uses an F-range sensor with a differential pressure measurement range of 0.4-40 kPa (4-400 mbar), and a maximum level measurement range of 0-2 meters water column (depending on medium density). Base accuracy is as high as ±0.06%, with a 100:1 turndown, providing excellent measurement stability and long-term reliability.

The transmitter is equipped with a dual remote seal system: high side S26WAHD5FSM1ACSNNN standard diaphragm remote seal, low side S26WALD5FSM1ACSNNN thin diaphragm remote seal, both with 1-meter capillary length. Wetted materials are 316L stainless steel with silicone oil fill fluid, suitable for most industrial process media.

Important Model Change Notice: According to the Shanghai ABB production line notification, the original remote seal models (SL version, such as S26WAHD5FSL1ACSNNN, S26WALD5FSL1ACSNNN) have been discontinued and are now uniformly changed to the SM version (S26WAHD5FSM1ACSNNN, S26WALD5FSM1ACSNNN). The new model has a capillary length of 1 meter, and the transmitter maximum range is 0-2 meters water column (level measurement) or 0-40 kPa (differential pressure measurement, F-range).

This transmitter outputs a 4-20mA signal superimposed with HART protocol, supporting HART communication, remote configuration, and diagnostics, and complies with PED (Pressure Equipment Directive) Category III requirements. It is widely used in process measurement and control in industries such as petrochemical, power, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage.

8. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Is this model a zirconia oxygen analyzer?

A: No. The 266DRHFSRRSA7E8LSB2I2 is an ABB 266 series differential pressure transmitter with remote seals, used for measuring differential pressure, level, and flow — it is NOT a zirconia oxygen analyzer. ABB's zirconia oxygen analyzers are typically the AZ series (such as AZ20, AZ25, EasyLine O2, etc.), used for measuring oxygen content in flue gas or gases. If you need a zirconia oxygen analyzer, please provide the specific model or application scenario, and we can recommend a suitable product.

Q2: What does the model change in the documentation mean? Can I still use my original SL model?

A: According to the Shanghai ABB production line notification, the original remote seal SL models (such as S26WAHD5FSL1ACSNNN, S26WALD5FSL1ACSNNN) have been discontinued and are now uniformly changed to SM models (S26WAHD5FSM1ACSNNN, S26WALD5FSM1ACSNNN). The new SM model is a replacement for the SL version, compatible in function and mounting dimensions, with a capillary length of 1 meter. If you still have stock of the original SL model, you can continue to use it, but new purchases can only provide the SM model. It is recommended to use the new SM model for spare parts replacement and new projects.

Q3: What is the range of this transmitter? Can it measure level above 2 meters?

A: According to the documentation and model code, this transmitter uses an F-range sensor with a differential pressure measurement range of 0.4-40 kPa. For level measurement, the maximum range is 0-2 meters water column (with water as reference medium, density 1 g/cm³). If the medium density is less than water, the maximum level height will be greater than 2 meters; if the density is greater than water, the maximum level height will be less than 2 meters. If you need to measure level above 2 meters (water medium), you need to select a sensor code with a larger range (such as G-range 0-160 kPa or higher), please contact us to confirm the appropriate model.

Q4: What types are the dual remote seals? What is the difference?

A: This transmitter is equipped with dual remote seals:

  • High side (H): S26WAHD5FSM1ACSNNN — Standard diaphragm remote seal, for connecting to the lower part of the vessel or high pressure end, withstanding higher process pressure
  • Low side (L): S26WALD5FSM1ACSNNN — Thin diaphragm remote seal, for connecting to the upper part of the vessel or low pressure end (gas phase side), thin diaphragm design reduces static pressure influence and improves level measurement accuracy Both sides have 1-meter capillary length, wetted material 316L stainless steel, silicone oil fill fluid. This configuration (standard diaphragm + thin diaphragm) is especially suitable for level and interface measurement in closed vessels.

Q5: What is the output signal? Can it connect to a DCS system?

A: This transmitter output signal is 4-20mA superimposed with HART protocol. This is the most commonly used output method in industrial process control, and can be directly connected to analog input modules of most DCS, PLC, and single-loop controllers. The HART protocol allows remote configuration, calibration, and diagnostics via a HART communicator or asset management software. If your system requires PROFIBUS PA or FOUNDATION Fieldbus protocol, you can select a model with the corresponding communication protocol (need to confirm availability or lead time).

Q6: Does this product have explosion-proof certification? Can it be used in hazardous areas?

A: The 266 series transmitters can be optionally equipped with various explosion-proof certifications, including ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA, NEPSI, etc., for use in explosive hazardous environments. However, whether this specific model (266DRHFSRRSA7E8LSB2I2) includes explosion-proof certification needs to be confirmed based on the complete model code (the model does not explicitly show an explosion-proof code). If you need to use it in a hazardous area, please specify the required explosion-proof certification type (such as intrinsic safety Ex ia, explosion-proof Ex d, etc.) and zone classification when inquiring, and we will confirm or recommend a model with explosion-proof certification.

Q7: What is the lead time? Can you provide stock?

A: This model is currently in order available status, standard lead time 4-8 weeks (ordered from ABB Shanghai factory). Differential pressure transmitters with remote seals are typically custom configurations (range, remote seals, capillary length, explosion-proof, etc.), with limited stock inventory. If you have urgent needs, we can try to coordinate stock inventory or expedited ordering. Please indicate required quantity and desired delivery time when inquiring, and we will do our best to coordinate the fastest delivery solution. For large-volume project orders, advance procurement planning is recommended.
