Monitor and control vacuum pumps, air compressors, and hydraulics while viewing readings and warnings on a display. With two outputs, these transmitters—also known as transducers—can be used as a transmitter, a switch, or both. All send electrical signals to your programmable logic controllers to trigger actions in your system. You can even use an IO-Link controller (not included) to connect them to a programmable logic controller or human-machine interface to change settings and receive messages remotely. For your receiving device to interpret the signal from these transmitters, you will need to calibrate them for the transmitters’ pressure range and output signal. As pressure increases, the output signal from the transmitters will increase. Transmitters will only give accurate readings within the rated pressure range.

The transmitters’ display has buttons to easily adjust set points, measuring range, scales, and other settings. The approximate difference between the set point and the reset point is adjustable, so you can set it anywhere within the set point range. Program the display to show red and green colors to signal the status of your process. Two LEDs alert you to the switching status of your output. The display head rotates 345° for the best view.

These transmitters have a 316L stainless steel connection to stand up to corrosion. All are rated IP65 and IP67, so they are protected against dust, low-pressure jets of water, and temporary submersion. They also meet U.S., Canadian, and European safety standards.

All of these transmitters have an M12 plug connection and are for use with M12 sockets. For their 4-20mA output current range, they’ll need a two-wire connection. When using both switching outputs and an IO-Link controller, they’ll require a four-wire connection. To view transmitter wiring diagrams, select a part number and click Product Detail.

Mount these sensors between a robot arm and a tool for precise control during delicate tasks, such as sanding or assembling small parts. They constantly measure the force and torque your tool is applying to a workpiece, mimicking your sense of touch. As they measure the force and torque in six axes (three for force and three for torque), they send the data to your robot controller, which uses it to judge the tool's position and adjust the arm's movements. The constant communication between the sensor and controller helps you automate tasks that would normally require a person.

These sensors are UR+ Certified, which means they work seamlessly with Universal Robots (UR) systems. They have an ISO 50 mounting pattern to connect to most tools without an adapter. These sensors are more sensitive and accurate than built-in UR sensors, since they have an accuracy of ±2%. Switch between calibration settings for small and large loads for the most accurate measurements for the force in your application.

Install the data-recording software onto your teach pendant to integrate these sensors with your robot. The software helps you program, record, and control the forces of your assembly. LED status indicators show you whether the sensors are working, so you don't need to check your controller. They also have silicon strain gauges, which send a strong signal to your controller with very little distortion. Rated IP64, these sensors are dust-tight and protected from water splashing in all directions.
