Absolute pressure sensors
As of now, ifm has added absolute pressure sensors to its versatile portfolio in the pressure sensor range. The new PT05 series with robust metal measuring cell, G 1/4 process connection, M12 connector and analogue output is available in the common pressure ranges up to 10 bar.
Operating principle
Absolute pressure sensors operate independently of the surrounding air pressure; that is what distinguishes them from sensors working on a relative measurement principle. The measurement is not influenced by weather- and altitude-related fluctuations of air pressure. This is often a decisive factor in vacuum applications, which require a fine pressure control.
Absolute pressure sensors do not require ventilation, therefore incorrect measurement due to a blocked exhaust is impossible.
In the field of pressure sensors the new units stand out as specialists for ”specific duties“.
