Autonics offers a wide variety of pressure sensors for the industrial automation. These are micro controller based pressure sensor, which can be used for any non-corrosive gases and for air but not for flammable gases. These pressure sensors are with high accuracy and with semiconductor pressure sensing element. This sensor has high brightness red led display with high resolution of 1/1,000. Display can be in different units like kpa, psi, mmhp, bar, kgf/ cm2, mmhg, inhg, etc. Three types of pressure sensors are available, standard pressure type, vacuum pressure type, and compound pressure type. The standard pressure type is with -0.725 to 16 psi, vacuum pressure type from +0.725 to -4.6 psi, and compound pressure type -14.6 psi to +14.6 psi. The pressure sensors are available with three shapes, to cater to the mounting needs of customers. A special output chattering prevention function is there with selectable response time. 1-5 v dc analogue outputs as well as two transistor outputs are available. The outputs can be pnp or npn open collector outputs depending on the model selection. These will work with a power supply of 12-24 v dc and consume only a small power. The unit is provided with reverse polarity protection. Main applications of the pressure sensors are in automotive industry, special purpose machines, semiconductor machines, packaging machines, compressors, printing machines, robotics, pharmaceutical industry, etc.
