    Pressure Transmitters for Compressed Air

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Pressure Transmitters. Pressure Transmitters for Compressed Air.
    With a pressure range common to most compressed air systems, use these transmitters to monitor your system's air pressure. Also known as transducers, these transmitters convert pressure to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices such as remote displays and motor speed controls. They can also connect to a programmable logic controller (PLC) with two digital PNP switch outputs, so you can activate automated controls or alarms when a set pressure is reached. They have a digital display with buttons to change settings.
    For your receiving device to interpret the signal from the transmitter, you will need to calibrate it for the transmitter's pressure range and output signal. As pressure increases, the output signal from the transmitter will increase. Transmitters will only provide accurate readings within the rated pressure range.
    UL and C-UL recognized components, CSA certified, and CE marked, they meet American, Canadian, and European safety standards.
    Transmitters with Wire Lead Connection
    2.4 mA to 20 mA—Transmitters with output current connect using two wires. The same wire is used to send a signal to the receiver and to power the transmitter. Current doesn’t lose signal over long distances and isn’t affected by electrical interference from other devices.
    0.6V DC to 5V DC—Transmitters with output voltage connect using three wires—two wires into the power supply and a separate wire that sends a signal to the receiver. The receiver and the transmitter share a common ground wire back to the power supply.

    Pressure and Vacuum Transmitters for Compressed Air

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Pressure and Vacuum Transmitters. Pressure and Vacuum Transmitters for Compressed Air.
    Specifically made for compressed air and gas systems, these transmitters remotely monitor pressure and vacuum. Also known as transducers, they convert both pressure and vacuum into an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays, and motor speed controls. They also have two digital PNP switch outputs that you can connect to your programmable logic controller (PLC) to activate automated controls or alarms when a set pressure or vacuum is reached. Change settings with the buttons on the digital display.
    For your receiving device to interpret the signal from the transmitter, you will need to calibrate it for the transmitter's pressure or vacuum range and output signal. As pressure increases, the output signal from the transmitter will increase. Transmitters will only provide accurate readings within the rated pressure or vacuum range.
