The pressure sensors from ifm have a G1/8 process connection combined with a welded thin-film measuring cell. While offering an unbeatable price/performance ratio, this technology provides for high measuring accuracy in a very compact and robust housing with only 19 mm across flats.
Thanks to the welded measuring cell, the sensors can be used in both pneumatic and inert gas applications. Another advantage in industrial applications is the robust stainless steel housing. The latter comes with laser labelling, making the sensor permanently identifiable, even in demanding environmental conditions.
IO-Link technology allows the pressure sensor to transmit the system pressure continuously and to output other diagnostic data such as peak counters. Moreover, IO-Link enables loss-free data transmission. Conversion losses are excluded and external influences, such as magnetic fields, have no effect on the data transmission.
