CS Instruments CS -1...+15 Precision Pressure Sensor - 0.5% Acc.

Description

Pressure monitoring is fundamental to the safety and efficiency of pneumatic systems. The CS Instruments CS -1…+15 Precision Pressure Sensor offers a reliable solution for measuring pressure ratios across a compound range of -1…+15 bar. This unique range makes it particularly useful for systems that cycle between vacuum (suction) and positive pressure generation, eliminating the need for two separate sensors.

The device operates on a standard 2-wire loop technology, simplifying the wiring process during installation. It converts the physical pressure into a linear 4…20 mA electrical signal, ensuring interference-free data transmission over long distances. With a wide power supply range of 8…30 VDC, this sensor easily integrates into existing 12V or 24V control loops without requiring specialized power converters.

Accuracy is paramount in process control. This sensor delivers a precision of 0.5% of full scale, providing the granularity needed to detect pressure drops, verify compressor performance, or control vacuum pumps effectively. Whether connected to a local display or a central data logger like the DS 500, this sensor delivers consistent, repeatable results.

Brand

CS Instruments

CS Instruments GmbH & Co. KG with locations in 24955 Harrislee and 78052 Villingen-Schwenningen/ Tannheim, is managed by Dipl. Eng. (FH) Wolfgang Blessing as sole Managing Director.

CS Instruments GmbH was established in the year 2002 by Christian Schuldt and Wolfgang Blessing as equal shareholders/Managing Directors.

Wolfgang Blessing already was sound a specialist on the sector of compressed air technology resp. industrial measurement technology long before the establishment of CS Instruments GmbH in the year 2002. Prior to the foundation of CS Instruments GmbH Dipl. Ing. (FH) Wolfgang Blessing acted for more than 10 years as primarily responsible product manager for industrial measurement technology at a worldwide known manufacturer of measuring instruments for compressed air and gases in the Black Forest. The technical knowledge and experience matched with the long-term practical knowledge was the corner stone for the success of CS Instruments.
