STRUCTURE STRUCTURE
CODE 52 CODE 22
The Foxboro® brand I/A Series® Model IGP50 is an intelligent, premium performance, two-wire transmitter
that provides precise, reliable measurement of gauge pressure using only two sensors to provide a very
wide measurement range. It transmits a 4 to 20 mA or digital output signal, as applicable, using HART® or
FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus communication protocol for remote configuration, calibration, and monitoring.
