The new E8Y-L micropressure sensors with digital display from Omron Electronics are now being shipped by authorised distributor Mouser Electronics.
These compact digital pressure sensors are designed to save space and provide clear on-site monitoring for industrial manufacturing equipment and factory automation applications.
They feature a compact design (31 × 30 × 30mm) and an easy-to-read red LED indicator, enabling the monitoring of pressure in various scenarios and different zones.
This allows applications such as maintaining regulated pressure in a clean room or automatically regulating ducts or valves. These EN- and UL-approved sensors include analog current output models and pressure port Rc (PT) 1/8 models offering zero-point adjustment, and automatic teaching settings that allow users to set custom pressures at which the sensor turns on or off.
Users can set the zero point to any value to simplify tracking pressure changes in semiconductor wafer-processing reactors, monitoring organic gas flow paths during implantation, or in safety systems such as purge gas leakage detection.
In addition, users can interact with the device via four simple buttons on the front panel to select the measurement range, displayed channel, operating mode, or set thresholds for the upper and lower limits of measurement pressure, which can simplify the detection of machinery faults, such as clogged exhausts or blocked vents.
The E8Y-L sensors operate from -10 to 55°C, with no condensation or icing, and can withstand up to 85% relative humidity, making them suitable for use in a wide variety of industrial environments.
With a wide supply voltage range of 12 to 24V and a current consumption of up to 50 or 75mA, the sensors are ready to operate from popular industrial power rails.
