Electronic pressure measurement

Highly complex industry-specific and individual requirements call for customized solutions.

Whether it is the pressure measurement of gas, air or liquids you need: With our innovative pressure measurement technology, you can cover a broad scope of application areas and benefit from the high complexity of the customised solutions. In the field of "electronic pressure measurement technology", we offer you a wide range of high-quality products that meet your individual requirements.

Pressure sensors

Precise and reliable pressure sensors are a relevant cornerstone of electronic pressure measurement. The conversion of the pressure to be measured into a digital or analogue output signal is the main function of pressure transmitters, which are often also referred to as sensors or pressure transducers. With our assortment you will receive state-of-the-art sensor technology - the selection ranges from electronic analogue devices to CANopen pressure transmitters and miniature sensors.

Pressure switches

Pressure switches are important components in industrial and process pressure monitoring. After a certain pressure value, previously defined by the customer, is reached, a built-in switch contact and circuit is opened or closed as required.

If the pressure falls below the value, the contact is switched accordingly. Pressure switches are often used to switch connected systems, such as a pump, on and off when a pressure value is reached. We offer a comprehensive selection of high-quality products in this area, from switches for differential pressure measurement to industrial pressure switches.

How does pressure measurement work?

Pressure measurement is basically based on the comparison of the pressure to be measured with a reference pressure value. Relevant parameters in pressure measurement include differential pressure, relative pressure and absolute pressure.

Various pressure measurement technologies are available to carry out pressure measurement: One of these is electronic pressure measurement, which we have specialised in due to its numerous advantages. In addition, the methods of mechanical pressure measurement, hydraulic pressure measurement or pneumatic pressure measurement are available.

How is electronic pressure measurement carried out?

Electronic pressure measurement uses electronic sensors that convert the pressure into electrical signals. These output signals can then be evaluated by a measuring device or a control system. An example of this is piezoresistive measuring principle. Here, the pressure of the medium to be measured is applied to a membrane. Various interconnected resistors are attached to this membrane and the resistance changes depending on the deformation of the membrane. This change is converted into an electrical output signal by means of signal conditioning.

Compared to other pressure measurement technologies - such as mechanical pressure measurement - electronic pressure measurement technology offers a variety of advantages. The biggest advantage is that the measurement can be carried out more precisely and accurately. In addition, electronic pressure sensors can be used in harsh environments where mechanical sensors would not work.

Furthermore, electronic pressure measurement technology enables automatic recording and storage of measurement data. This, in turn, leads to easy monitoring of processes and fast fault detection. When electronic sensors are used, several measurements can also be carried out simultaneously in different measuring ranges - a great advantage in many areas of application.
