The IFM PN3070 pressure sensor is a rugged and versatile solution for industrial pressure monitoring, designed to provide reliable relative pressure measurements across a wide range of applications. Built on proven metallic thin-film technology, it delivers stability, accuracy, and long-term durability in environments where consistent process control is essential.

At its core, the PN3070 is equipped with a metallic thin-film pressure measuring cell, a technology well-known for its robustness and resistance to dynamic loads. Unlike other sensing technologies, thin-film elements are particularly resistant to vibration, pressure spikes, and fluctuating loads, ensuring long-term reliability even in challenging process conditions. This makes the PN3070 a preferred choice for heavy-duty systems where precision and endurance are equally critical.

The PN3070 is engineered for broad media compatibility, offering reliable operation in both liquids and gases. This flexibility makes it an excellent fit for hydraulic systems, pneumatic networks, water and coolant monitoring, and general process automation. Whether used in compressed air systems, hydraulic power units, or water-based process environments, it consistently delivers accurate and repeatable pressure data.

To support industrial resilience, the PN3070 operates across a medium temperature range of -25…80 °C, ensuring dependable measurement performance in both cold and moderately heated applications. This capability allows it to be deployed in varied environments without sacrificing accuracy or system stability.

On the electrical side, the PN3070 has been designed for safety and efficiency. It runs on a supply voltage of 18…30 V DC, meeting SELV/PELV requirements for safe low-voltage operation. This ensures compliance with international electrical safety standards, making it suitable for integration in sensitive or safety-critical systems. Additionally, its low current consumption of less than 35 mA helps reduce overall energy demand, which is especially beneficial in installations where multiple sensors operate simultaneously.

The inclusion of gold-plated contacts enhances the sensor’s reliability by ensuring robust electrical connectivity, preventing corrosion, and maintaining signal integrity over time. This detail contributes to its long-term operational stability in demanding industrial environments.

In practice, the PN3070 delivers precise, stable, and repeatable results, helping operators optimise system performance, maintain safety, and reduce downtime. Its rugged construction ensures it can withstand harsh conditions, while its compact design makes integration into new or existing systems straightforward.

In summary, the IFM PN3070 pressure sensor offers a powerful combination of precision, durability, and efficiency. With its metallic thin-film cell, safe SELV/PELV electrical operation, low power consumption, and compatibility with both liquids and gases, it is a dependable choice for industrial environments requiring robust and accurate relative pressure monitoring.
