The IFM PT5502 pressure transmitter is a rugged and versatile device designed to deliver reliable relative pressure measurement in mobile applications. Built to withstand the demanding conditions of industries such as construction, agriculture, and material handling, this sensor offers precision, resilience, and adaptability in environments where equipment is subject to vibration, temperature fluctuations, and continuous operation.

The PT5502 is suitable for monitoring liquids and gases, making it a versatile choice for mobile hydraulic systems, pneumatic controls, and general process monitoring in mobile equipment. By providing accurate real-time data, the sensor helps operators maintain system efficiency, prevent damage from pressure-related issues, and improve the overall safety and productivity of their machinery.

One of the key strengths of the PT5502 is its wide temperature operating range, from -40…125 °C. This capability ensures that it remains functional in both extremely cold outdoor environments and in systems exposed to high heat, such as engine compartments or hydraulic circuits. Its robust design guarantees consistent performance and long service life, even when subjected to these demanding conditions.

The sensor also prioritises electrical reliability, with a minimum insulation resistance of 100 MΩ at 500 V DC. This feature enhances safety by minimising the risk of leakage currents and electrical instability, ensuring uninterrupted performance in the presence of vibration, dust, or electrical noise. For mobile operators, this translates into dependable pressure monitoring and reduced downtime caused by sensor failures.

Power integration is made simple with the PT5502’s broad operating voltage range of 8…32 V DC, making it compatible with a variety of mobile power supplies and control systems. This adaptability reduces installation complexity and ensures that the sensor can be easily integrated into new systems or retrofitted into existing equipment.

With its static pressure rating suitability, the PT5502 is engineered for reliable measurement in stable pressure environments, providing consistent and repeatable results over long periods of operation. Its compact, durable construction further ensures resilience against shocks, vibrations, and environmental stressors commonly encountered in mobile industries.

In summary, the IFM PT5502 pressure transmitter is a reliable and durable choice for mobile applications requiring relative pressure measurement in both liquids and gases. With its wide temperature tolerance, strong electrical insulation, broad voltage compatibility, and rugged design, it ensures safe, efficient, and long-lasting operation in the toughest conditions.
