The monitoring of the pressure of liquids and gaseous media is an essential component of many industrial processes, from monitoring machine cuttings fluids to the pressure of liquid within a beverage processing operation, pressure sensors will be there, ensuring the pressure is maintained and kept within process parameters.
The clever people at SICK are world-renowned for their knowledge and experience in the design, development and manufacture of sensory technology products, and they take pressure sensing very seriously. The PBS Hygienic and the PBT range of pressure sensors will provide you with everything you need, whether you are involved in the food and beverage industry or deal with industrial machinery daily you need a capable, reliable sensory solution for monitoring all your fluid and gaseous media pressures.
SICK PBS Universal Hygienic Pressure Switch
Designed for use in the food and beverage sectors, the PBS Hygienic Pressure Switch from SICK is a step above the competition. With easy-to-clean high-quality gap-free, stainless-steel wetted parts with no dead spaces, and IO-Link ability, the PBS range makes pressure monitoring a cinch. The durable impact and waterproof polycarbonate and ABS rotatable-head contains the control buttons and LED for easy monitoring and set-up. The housing can be positioned in two ways allowing you to orientate the sensor to match your specific installation requirements.
With a corrosion-resistant stainless-steel membrane that is fully seam welded to the process connection ensures long operational life and that there are no gaps or edges that may cause an issue with accurate pressure monitoring. Designed to withstand the toughest cleaning demands the PBS range of hygienic pressure sensors can easily resist all CIP and SIP processes.
The PBS range of pressure switches is available with up to two switching outputs, analogue output and of course IO-Link compatibility. All of this is contained in a single robust device providing you with the ultimate in system availability, enabling fast and reliable parameter setting when changing over devices.
These world-class pressure sensors are easy and intuitive to configure using the three large push-buttons and the large LED display. The PBS Hygienic range has been created to cover all possible processing situations and is available in a huge selection of process connection and measuring range variants, perfect for any pressure monitoring application.
