Pressure measurement via PLC - pressure sensor module AMS 2710 for direct connection

The AMS 2710 series are ready-to-install industrial pressure sensors that are mounted on a printed circuit board and can be easily installed in a housing without any additional components, so-called pressure sensor modules. They are available for absolute, relative and differential pressure measurement in a wide pressure range from 5 mbar up to 2 bar. The modules are also available as a bidirectional differential version (for negative and positive pressure measurement).

These extended pressure sensors have a 0..10 V voltage output with 12..36 V supply. Due to their robust, reverse polarity protected signal output and current limiting, they are thus predestined for industrial environments. The various connection configurations allow the AMS 2710 to be connected via solder contacts, a connector or a cable terminal strip. The PCB sensor modules are individually calibrated and compensated and achieve a total accuracy of 0.5 %FS in the entire temperature range (-25..85 °C) and in the pressure range > 200 mbar.

In terms of their functionality, the new PCB pressure sensor modules stand between OEM sensors, which have to be soldered onto PCBs with additional components, and ready-to-install, housed pressure transmitters. In addition to the simple connection to existing controllers, the modules can also be used to very easily manufacture individual transmitters with their own housing.

Other variants are the AMS 2711 with 0..5 V voltage output and the AMS 2712 with 4..20 mA current output. Customized pressure ranges (up to 10 bar) and other modifications are available upon request.
