Pressure sensor is easy to apply
Norgren has an electronic pressure sensor it reckons is incredibly easy to program and use, making it ideal for all tasks where a vacuum has to be monitored or a space saving design is needed.

The built in electronic processor ensures the utmost accuracy, by linearising the signal and compensating for temperature fluctuations.
Measuring just 62mm long (75mm for the display version) by 16mm diameter, the space saving design allows the sensor to be installed in all but the tightest of applications.
The revolving display means even if the sensor is located in an awkward to reach position, its readout can still be clearly seen.
Four different measurement units, as well as peak values, can be shown on the display.
Industry standard analogue and digital signals are catered for, and the 40D can be programmed to be NO or NC.
With a standard M8 x 14-pin electrical connector, the sensor needs no tools to wire it up.
The 40D is suitable for use with filtered, nonlubricated compressed air and neutral gases.
Manufactured from ABS plastic, the sensor is tough and can withstand harsh environments.
With an impressive switching time of less than 2.5 ms, the 40D is ideal for all vacuum and handling applications.
