The IFM TA2531 is a precision-engineered temperature sensor designed for demanding industrial applications involving liquids and gases. Combining a wide measuring range, IO-Link communication, and a durable design, the TA2531 ensures accurate, reliable, and long-term performance for process control and monitoring.

At its core, the TA2531 provides an analogue output for continuous temperature measurement, delivering real-time visibility into process conditions. Complementing this is its IO-Link interface, which enables seamless integration into modern automation networks. IO-Link simplifies sensor configuration, enhances transparency with diagnostic data, and supports predictive maintenance, making the TA2531 not just a measuring device but an enabler of smart process optimisation.

The sensor’s measuring range of -50…200 °C ensures that it can be deployed in both cold storage and high-temperature process environments. This broad range makes it suitable for industries such as chemical processing, food and beverage, water treatment, power generation, and HVAC, where precise temperature control is critical to efficiency, quality, and safety.

The process connection is a G 1/2 external thread with sealing cone, providing secure, leak-free installation in tanks, pipelines, and closed systems. With an installation length of 100 mm, the TA2531 is particularly well-suited for applications requiring deeper insertion into media for more representative and stable temperature measurement. This makes it highly effective in large-diameter pipes, storage vessels, or systems with variable flow conditions.

Accuracy is a defining feature of the TA2531, which uses a Pt1000 measuring element manufactured to DIN EN 60751, class A. This ensures high-precision temperature readings with excellent repeatability and stability over time. Operators can rely on consistent measurements even in processes where tight temperature tolerances are essential.

Engineered for liquid and gas media, the TA2531 offers broad compatibility, enabling standardisation across different systems and reducing the need for multiple sensor types. Its rugged design ensures reliable operation even in demanding environments, minimising downtime and maintenance costs.

In summary, the IFM TA2531 combines high precision, durability, and smart connectivity in a single sensor. With its analogue and IO-Link outputs, wide measuring range, secure threaded process connection, and extended 100 mm installation length, it delivers accurate and reliable temperature measurement for diverse industrial applications. The TA2531 is an excellent choice for engineers seeking to balance precision monitoring with long-term system efficiency and seamless integration into Industry 4.0 environments.
