The IFM PN2071 pressure sensor is a rugged, reliable, and versatile device designed to provide accurate relative pressure measurement in industrial applications. With its advanced sensing technology, multiple output options, and strong mechanical design, the PN2071 offers long-term reliability and operational flexibility for a wide range of processes.

A defining feature of the PN2071 is its dual digital outputs combined with one analog output. This configuration gives operators flexibility for both monitoring and control functions. The digital outputs can be used for switching tasks such as limit alarms, safety interlocks, or triggering actuators, while the analog output provides a continuous, real-time measurement signal for precise system monitoring. This makes the sensor an ideal choice for automated systems that require both discrete and continuous data for safe and efficient operation.

At the core of the PN2071 lies a metallic thin-film measuring cell, a robust and reliable technology that ensures high levels of measurement accuracy, repeatability, and durability. Metallic thin-film cells are particularly resistant to wear, pressure peaks, and vibration, making the sensor well-suited for demanding environments where long service life and stable performance are essential.

The sensor’s G 1/4 internal thread (DIN EN ISO 1179-2) process connection ensures easy integration into a wide range of industrial systems. This standardised fitting makes the PN2071 straightforward to install, whether as part of new machinery or when retrofitting into existing process lines.

In terms of media compatibility, the PN2071 is capable of monitoring both liquids and gases, providing operators with flexibility across applications. This includes compressed air monitoring in pneumatic systems, hydraulic oil measurement in power systems, and water or process fluid control in manufacturing and utilities. Such versatility makes the sensor a valuable tool across industries including manufacturing, energy, food and beverage, and general automation.

The PN2071 is engineered for resilience, offering stable performance across a medium temperature range of -25…80 °C. This wide tolerance allows the sensor to perform reliably in both chilled and moderately elevated process environments, ensuring consistent measurement accuracy without compromise.

Finally, the PN2071 benefits from gold-plated contacts, which enhance signal integrity and reduce the risk of electrical degradation over time. Combined with IFM’s commitment to quality and robust design, this ensures a sensor that delivers dependable performance even in electrically demanding environments.

In summary, the IFM PN2071 pressure sensor combines accuracy, versatility, and durability to meet the demands of modern industrial automation. With its dual digital and analog outputs, metallic thin-film sensing technology, rugged process connection, and compatibility with both liquids and gases, it is an excellent choice for operators looking for reliable pressure monitoring in complex and demanding systems.
