Ashcroft CX8MB2425IWL differential transmitter
This Ashcroft CX8MB2425IWL differential transmitter measures pressure from -5 to 5 inches of water column with an accuracy of ±0.80% of full scale. It outputs a 4 to 20 mA DC signal over a two-wire loop powered by 12 to 36 V DC. The CXLdp series unit is built for test and measurement tasks that require a reliable low-pressure sensor.
Sustained-load behaviour and overpressure margin
The transmitter withstands a continuous overpressure of 15 psid and a burst pressure of 25 psid, giving headroom above the 5 in wc upper range. Its ±0.80% full-scale accuracy holds across the operating span while the 12 to 36 V DC supply range tolerates voltage droop on long cable runs. The two-wire current loop rejects electrical noise better than voltage outputs in industrial environments.
Brass hose barb and NEMA 1 enclosure
A 1/4-inch male hose barb in brass connects directly to flexible tubing without extra adapters. The plastic housing carries a NEMA 1 rating for indoor use and meets UL94-5VA flammability requirements. Screw terminals accept stripped wires for secure field wiring, and the compact form factor fits tight panels where larger transmitters cannot be mounted.

Questions about this item
How much heat or noise does the CX8MB2425IWL generate when powered continuously at 36V DC?
The transducer draws a 4 to 20mA loop current, so power dissipation stays very low and the plastic housing produces no audible noise during all-day operation.
What power supply and wiring must I already have to install this 2-wire transmitter?
You need a 12 to 36V DC source and a current-loop input that accepts 4 to 20mA; the unit connects via screw terminals with no additional conduit or barrier required.
Will the 1/4 in hose-barb fitting and NEMA 1 rating work with my existing brass manifold and indoor panel?
Yes, the male 1/4 in hose barb threads into standard brass ports, and the NEMA 1 enclosure is designed for clean, dry indoor cabinets alongside legacy instruments.
