ProSense™ Pressure Sensors

Pressure Switches, Pressure and Vacuum Transmitters

ProSense pressure sensors are designed to monitor relative system pressure in many applications such as hydraulic, vacuum, and pneumatic systems.

• ProSense pressure sensors and vacuum sensors are a solid-state solution to mechanical pressure switches.
• These sensors are smaller and easier to install than traditional mechanical pressure switches.
• Flexible film circuitry enables the system components to be mounted on flexible film rather than a rigid circuit board. The film is then rolled and placed inside a compact, stainless steel housing.
• ProSense offers pressure sensing solutions using capacitive sensing technology and strain gauge technology. The capacitive sensing technology sensors incorporate the same ceramic pressure measuring cell sensing technology found in high accuracy pressure transmitters.
• Vacuum sensors provide an accurate readout of increases and decreases in vacuum systems. With no moving parts such as pistons or springs that can stick or break, ProSense pressure and vacuum sensors are a solid-state solution to mechanical switches.

Pressure Switches

Using strain gauge technology, the PSD series electronic pressure switch is an ideal alternative to mechanical piston pressure switches. The PSD sensor features a gas-tight measuring cell that reliably detects gas pressure and liquid pressure.

• The pressure switch detects pressure ranges up to 5800 psi (400 bar).
• The one-piece welded measuring cell is capable of over 50 million switching cycles.
• Mechanical adjustment dials rotate quickly to establish the setpoint and resetpoint. The pressure sensor is adjustable without system pressure and supply voltage and does not require calibration.

Pressue Transmitters and Vacuum Transmitters

The PTD series of compact pressure and vacuum transmitters provides an analog output for reliable pressure indication.

• The pressure transmitters offer quick installation and easy setup.
• Pressure transmitter output options include 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 10 volts.
• Vacuum-style transmitters offer 4 to 20 mA or 20 to 4 mA.
