PQ0809

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The ifm efector PQ0809 is a compact digital pressure sensor designed for pneumatics and fluid applications. It features a measuring range of -14.5 PSI to 14.5 PSI (-100 kPa to 100 kPa) with a female 1/8" BSPP thread connection. The device utilizes a moisture-resistant silicone measurement element coated for protection against humidity and condensation, ensuring high overload resistance and ±0.5% accuracy. It provides both an analog output and a programmable switch output, configurable via two buttons or the IO-Link interface. A dual-color LED display allows for immediate status detection.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix (e.g., /AS/) matches the required cable length and connector type. Confirm the process connection thread is 1/8" BSPP as specified. Ensure the application pressure does not exceed the rated range of -14.5 to 14.5 PSI. Check for compatibility with existing IO-Link masters if digital configuration is required. Validate material wetted parts for chemical compatibility with the measured medium.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring precise relative pressure or differential pressure measurement in pneumatic environments. The integrated IO-Link capability supports predictive maintenance strategies such as filter change monitoring. Consider the compact form factor for installations where space is limited. The dual-output configuration allows simultaneous use for continuous monitoring and discrete switching thresholds. Ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions of the installation site.
