The PN2696 pressure sensor from ifm electronic gmbh features a ceramic-capacitive pressure measuring cell suitable for industrial applications involving liquids and gases. It operates within a medium temperature range of -25 to 80 °C and has a pressure rating of 20 bar (290 psi). The sensor includes a 4-digit red/green alphanumeric display for clear measurement visibility and two digital outputs, which can be configured as normally open or closed, and one analog output.
The device supports an operating voltage of 18 to 30 V DC with a current consumption of less than 35 mA. It is equipped with reverse polarity protection and an integrated watchdog. The analog output can be configured for either current (4-20 mA) or voltage (0-10 V), with short-circuit and overload protection included.
With a response time of less than 1.5 ms and a long-term stability of less than ±0.05% of the span per six months, the PN2696 is designed for reliable performance. It is housed in a robust stainless steel casing, making it suitable for harsh environments, and has an IP 65/IP 67 protection rating. The sensor also features IO-Link communication for advanced parameter setting and diagnostics.
