Robust pressure sensor for general applications

December 2011 Pressure Measurement & Control

Labom has introduced the rugged Pascal CS2100 pressure sensor and switch for general applications. These sensors feature IP65 protection in a compact design for less mounting space than traditional pressure gauges. CS2100-sensors have a measuring range of 0-40 bar with a 4-20 mA output signal. This signal is displayed on the sensors 4-digit LED display, which is rotatable through 300°. These sensors also feature optional PNP/NPN switching points, which can be programmed through the display’s buttons, or via optional PC-software. Mechanical fitting is achieved through a rugged thread connection. And electrical termination is made simple through the convenient M12-socket connection.
