Industrial Pressure Sensors from DDM Sensors
DDM Sensors develops miniaturized pressure sensors for industrial applications. Depending on the task, relative pressure sensors, absolute pressure sensors, and differential pressure sensors are available. Additionally, specialized solutions exist for hydrogen applications and brake pressure measurement. This allows targeted coverage of hydraulics, test rigs, custom machinery, and other demanding industrial environments.
Our Product Portfolio at a Glance
For industrial pressure measurements, DDM Sensors offers product series featuring various pressure types and connection concepts:
- Relative and Absolute Pressure Measurement: The PX25, PV25, and PV22 series serve as an ideal foundation for hydraulic and plant machinery applications.
- Differential Pressure Measurement: For differential pressure tasks, the PV2722 series is deployed to reliably measure small pressure differences.
- Brake Pressure Measurement: In automotive environments, the PV15B series supports brake pressure measurement thanks to its highly compact form factor.
Selection depends primarily on pressure range, media, temperature window, installation space, and output signal. The key is ensuring the sensor fits mechanically and electrically into the existing system without unnecessary integration effort.
How Industrial Pressure Sensors Work
Industrial pressure sensors convert applied pressure into an electrical signal that is processed by control units or evaluation systems. Depending on the design, pressure is categorized into relative, absolute, or differential pressure. For system integration, analog output signals such as 4 to 20 mA, 0 to 5 V, 1 to 6 V, 0.5 to 4.5 V, or 0 to 10 V are crucial.
Selecting the Right Sensor
Choosing the right sensor begins by determining whether measurement should be referenced against atmospheric pressure, vacuum, or between two pressure points. For compact machinery, miniaturized pressure sensors are often the optimal choice as they integrate directly into pre-existing assemblies.
- Measuring Range: Select according to the specific application.
- Pressure Type: Define relative pressure, absolute pressure, or differential pressure.
