Product Information Card

Product Notes
The PR140 can be used in both wet and dry applications up to 140°C indefinitely. Available
with Flush or NPT Pressure Port Top
Submergibility
The PR140 is fully submersible and is rated IP68. It can be placed in environments with up to
230 ft (70m) of water.
O-Rings
O-ring maintenance is a key factor when properly caring for the PR140. The O-rings ensure
a tight seal and prevent liquid from entering the inside of the device. Please refer to the
application note “O-Rings 101: Protecting Your Data,” found on the MadgeTech website,
for information on how to prevent O-ring failure.
Note: This product is rated for use up to 140°C. Please heed the battery warning. The product will explode if exposed to
temperatures above 140°C.
