When it comes to subsea applications, reliability and precision are absolutely critical. Harsh underwater environments demand equipment that can perform flawlessly under immense pressure and extreme conditions. At ESI Technology, we understand these challenges deeply — We developed the PR3915 Dual Redundant Subsea Pressure Transmitter, a product specifically engineered for dependable performance in subsea systems where accuracy and safety are paramount.

So, what is a PR3915 Dual Redundant Subsea Pressure Transmitter, and why is it trusted by industry professionals around the world? Let’s explore what makes this specialised transmitter essential for modern subsea operations.

Understanding Subsea Pressure Measurement

Subsea pressure transmitters are vital for monitoring and controlling systems located below the ocean’s surface. These transmitters measure the pressure of liquids and gases, converting it into an electrical signal that can be interpreted by control systems. The information gathered is used to maintain operational safety, efficiency, and performance across offshore drilling, subsea production, and oceanographic research.

However, subsea environments are not forgiving. Once equipment is installed on the seabed, maintenance or replacement becomes costly and complex. This means reliability is non-negotiable — and redundancy becomes a key design feature.

What Makes the PR3915 Dual Redundant?

The PR3915 Dual Redundant Subsea Pressure Transmitter stands out because of its dual-redundant design. Essentially, this means the unit houses two fully independent pressure sensors within a single compact assembly. Each sensor has its own signal path, ensuring that if one sensor fails, the other continues to operate seamlessly.

This dual redundancy provides an additional layer of safety and reliability, which is crucial for critical subsea systems such as:

• Subsea hydraulic controls

• Blowout preventer (BOP) systems

• Subsea valve and actuator monitoring

• Remote pipeline and manifold pressure monitoring

By integrating two independent pressure measurement systems, operators gain peace of mind knowing that the transmitter can continue functioning even in the unlikely event of a single-sensor fault.

Engineered for Subsea Excellence

At ESI Technology, every detail of the PR3915 has been designed with long-term subsea performance in mind. The transmitter is constructed from high-grade materials, including Titanium, which offers exceptional resistance to seawater corrosion. It can withstand pressures up to 1,500 bar and depths exceeding 3,000 metres, depending on configuration.

The PR3915 also features oil-filled isolation barriers that protect the sensing elements from the external environment, ensuring stable and accurate measurements even in changing temperature and pressure conditions. The transmitter’s electrical connections are designed for underwater mateable connectors, making integration with subsea control systems straightforward and reliable.

Key Features and Benefits

The PR3915 Dual Redundant Subsea Pressure Transmitter combines advanced engineering with practical performance. Its key features include:

• Dual independent pressure sensors – ensuring system redundancy and operational safety.

• Pressure ranges up to 1,500 bar – suitable for high-pressure subsea environments.

• Corrosion-resistant Titanium housing – providing long-term durability in seawater.

• High accuracy and stability – essential for critical subsea control applications.

• Custom configurations available – allowing flexibility to meet specific customer requirements.

These features make the PR3915 one of the most robust and dependable subsea pressure transmitters on the market, trusted by engineers and operators who cannot afford downtime or measurement errors.
