Product description
The pressure sensor SPAU is suitable for monitoring compressed air and non- The pressure sensor without display transmits the pressure value to the connect-
corrosive gases. The variant with display offers the option of reading the pressure ed control system as an analogue signal. Display of the pressure and parameteri-
and set values on-site. The pressure value is transmitted to the connected control sation of the sensor are provided centrally, e.g. via a display that is part of a ma-
system as a switching signal, as an analogue signal or via IO-Link. chine control system. The pressure sensor can be parameterised using IO-Link as
a tamper-proof pressure switch without display with up to two switching outputs.
Areas of application
• Network monitoring (pressure present) • Vacuum (part picked up)
• Regulator monitoring (pressure in the setpoint range) • Leak test (pressure drop over time)
• Object detection (back pressure present)
Product benefits

Characteristics
Operation
Monitoring and setting of a pressure
threshold, a pressure range or a
pressure difference, using a teach-in
function or by entering values.
