The new pressure sensors of the ifm PM series are the solution for pressure detection in small pipes with a common flush seal concept. This concept allows small ceramic capacitive measuring elements to be hygienically integrated into small pipes, e.g. in material distribution and packing systems, which was not possible in the past. Thanks to the G 1/2 thread, the sensor completes the device without the need for expensive adapters. The flush fittings allow the use of viscous media and ensure optimal CIP cleaning, and each sensor comes with a factory certificate that can be downloaded free of charge.
Due to the non-elastomeric seal, the sensor is protection-free on the process side. The flush and robust ceramic measuring elements withstand pressure and vacuum shocks as well as the impact of abrasive substances. The sensor can withstand media temperatures of up to 150 °C (maximum duration 1 hour).
The compact size of the sensor reduces the drawbacks of the stainless steel barrier technology that prevails in shopping malls, making the PM series pressure sensor an economical solution for pressure applications that do not require visibility.
In food and beverage stores, these products have a very compact form factor and high precision. The improved resistance to temperature shocks allows the customer to return to normal operation faster during the cleaning cycle, which in turn improves the availability and performance of the machine (better OEE metrics). The internal device temperature measurement provides a true diagnostic function via IO-Link, which allows the customer to know whether the sensor is operating at a normal temperature and whether it has been overheated.
Benefits:
The 360-degree rotatable breathing hole planning is selected to arbitrarily determine the breathing hole exit, which is the exclusive patent and the first in the industry
Certified to a wide range of hygiene standards
Protection-free PEEK sealing concept for G 1/2 connectors
Resistant to medium temperatures up to 150 °C (up to 1 hour)
Robust and proven ceramic measuring elements without worrying about leakage of pressure transmitter filler
The temperature of the medium can be detected while measuring the pressure of the pipeline, eliminating the need to use multiple different types of products, saving costs
With IO-Link function, digital communication is selected, higher accuracy, anti-EMC disturbance, and "unmoved" in the face of high-power motors, pumps, etc.

Structural classification of UV sensors
1. Spherical cathode structure:
In order to fully avoid the tip effect and make the photoelectron emission more stable and uniform, it is necessary to fix the operating area on the cathode, because the ultraviolet tube relies on photoelectron emission and gas multiplication to complete the conversion of the optical signal into an electrical signal and amplify it.

Precautions for the selection of level transmitters – ifm
The differential pressure transmitter is a transmitter that measures the pressure difference between the two ends of the transmitter, and outputs a standard signal (such as 4-20mA, 1-5V). The difference between the differential pressure transmitter and the general pressure transmitter is that they have 2 pressure interfaces, and the differential pressure transmitter is generally divided into positive pressure end and negative pressure end.
