Pressure transmitters for mobile machine applications

April 2015 Pneumatics & Hydraulics

The new PU type pressure transmitters from ifm electronic are easy and quick to connect and have a short response time of 2 ms. The units feature a resistant welded stainless steel housing, a measurement accuracy of < 0,8 % and a repeatability of < 0,05 %.

With a Deutsch or Amp connector, the pressure transmitters enable a quick and simple installation. The compact units in their robust stainless steel housings only need a 19 mm width across flats. The thin-film measuring cell directly welded with the process connection (G¼ male) is the basis for high measurement accuracy and repeatability.

The PU type sensors are ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic applications with a high operating pressure. Due to their IP 67/IP 69K protection rating, high vibration and shock resistance, good EMC compatibility and E1 conformity, this series is ideally suited for use in mobile machines. The PU pressure transmitters provide an optimum price/performance ratio.
