Description

The VEGABAR 83 is a high-performance pressure transmitter designed for precision measurement in the most demanding industrial and marine applications. Built with a fully welded stainless steel or alloy metallic measuring cell, it offers superior overload resistance and is completely vacuum-proof, making it ideal for systems under extreme operating conditions.

In the marine and offshore sectors, the VEGABAR 83 is particularly suited for high-pressure applications such as engine room fuel systems, hydraulic oil control lines, high-pressure compressors, steam systems, and closed-loop piping. It handles pressure ranges up to 1000 bar with excellent long-term stability and minimal maintenance.

The transmitter operates reliably in fluctuating temperatures and under intense mechanical stress. Its front-flush process connection options support hygienic and CIP-compliant installations, while its modular design ensures flexible integration with existing measurement systems. The VEGABAR 83 can also be combined with other VEGA sensors for electronic differential pressure measurement, giving users even more control and insight.

Marine Technic supplies the VEGABAR 83 to shipowners, shipyards, and marine contractors requiring precision pressure instrumentation. With deep knowledge of marine standards and VEGA’s product portfolio, Marine Technic ensures safe, certified, and efficient solutions tailored to the needs of the maritime industry.
