Design
The pressure sensor is screwed to a universal plate. The component is fitted onto the slotted profile plate using the rotary system with the
blue knurled nut (fitting version "B"). The component can be fitted onto the slotted profile plate in-line with or perpendicular to the slot.

Function
The pressure sensor is a piezo-resistive relative pressure transducer with integrated amplifier and built-in temperature compensation. The
pressure to be measured is transferred to a piezo-resistive element via a silicone layer. The signal change generated in the element is output
as a switching signal at the connector plug via an integrated amplifier.
The pressure sensor has two compressed air connections, each of which is assigned an independent sensor element. The measured input
values (In A/In B) are output via two configurable switching outputs (Out A/Out B). The measured pressure is shown numerically and
graphically on the display. The pressure is displayed in bar.
