Design
The pressure sensor is fitted on a plastic plate. The plate can be rotated in increments of 15°. The electrical connections are inside a plastic
housing. The electrical connection is made via safety sockets. The unit is mounted on the profile plate using the locking system with the blue
lever (mounting version "A"). The component can be moved in the direction of the slot.

Function
The pressure sensor is a piezo-resistive relative pressure transducer with integrated amplifier and built-in temperature compensation. The
pressure to be measured is transferred to a piezo-resistive element via a silicone layer. The signal change generated in the element is output
as a voltage signal or switching signal at the connector plug via an integrated amplifier.
The pressure sensor has one supply port for compressed air. The measured pressure is shown numerically and graphically on the display. The
pressure is shown in the selected unit (bar, psi, kPa).
